NOTE FROM PAULA WEATHERFORD ROESLER:

When Jude's first wife Faye Weatherford (my father's sister) died in 1939, she was buried in the Neal Cemetery near Mudsoc. Her familycreated a tombstone that included the names of both Faye and Julius,thinking that he would later be buried there too. However, he was not.

Later in 1939, Julius married Thelma Callicoat (my mother's sister). When he died in 1962, Julius was buried in Glen Haven. When Thelma diedin 2004, she was also buried at Glen Haven. In August I will be visiting in Ohio and hope to get photos of their tombstones at Glen Haven.
