About Elisha Oney

Notes for ELISHA ONEY:

Hazel Green Herald Jan 30, 1896 Morgan County Caney Cullings Uncle Lish Oney, of White Oak, Magoffin county, killed himself last Saturday by hanging with a rope. He had been losing his mind for some time, and Saturday morning he arose and put on his best clothes and had his son, George, shave him for the purpose of going to the quarterly meeting held just above where he lived, but instead of going to church he went up the branch to the house where Dock Oney moved from and tied the rope 'round a rafter and swung down through the loft and passed into eternity. His funeral was preached Monday and he was buried Tuesday. (His wife Elizabeth Greear Toliver was 3 months pregnant with their son, Elisha Greear Oney, at the time.-MS)
