Notes:

"Jan 4th, 1977....I do not hear much from Duncan folks since Grace (Ellen Gentry Payne) and Virginia (Payne Hardin) gone they always kept me up on news. W.T. (Gentry) does call now and then and brought his mother out to see us before she passed away. We did not get to go over to her funeral. Had a terrific ice storm so could not drive...Ruth Pearl Gentry."

Married:
Ken Harvey's notes indicated that they also had a daughter named Virginia and a son named John Walter. Lynell Cordell believes that Frances was an only child. She is certainly the only child mentioned in the obituary of her mother.
