(Continued)


9165. Elsie (Essie) Lee Pegram (John William , John Fletcher , William , John , George , Daniel , Daniel , George ) was born 1 on 27 Sep 1891 in North Carolina. She died on 24 Jun 1956. She was buried 2 in Forsyth Memorial Park, Forsyth Co., North Carolina.

He died 7 on 27 Jan 1961 in Forsyth Co., North Carolina. He was buried 8 in Forsyth Memorial Park, Forsyth Co., North Carolina.

The 1900 Census gives his name as Yancy S. but the 1930 Census gives his name as Yancy A. Fulp. The birth dates come from family records and differ from the 1930 Census. We have found another record which says that our Yancy was married to someone else but besides the family records and Census records, we have found the WWI Draft Registration card for our Yancy which clearly gives his name as Yancy Stephen Fulp. It gives his employer's (?father's) name as Melvin Roberson Fulp and his wife as Essie Lee Fulp.
