We may have found the death record for Wesley but can not be sure. There is a death certificate for a Wesley Folger, son of A. R. Folger who died in Wayne Co. July 31, 1917 of malaria. The birth date shown on the death certificate was Nov. 10, 1905 but it also says he was an orphan. Naturally his father was already dead but his mother was still living in 1917. We have decided to list this while still searching for more information.

We do not yet have confirmation that Elmira Pegram married James H. Lewis but we do find a James H. Lewis and wife Elmira (age 36) living next to William Pegram and his wife on the 1880 census of Forsyth Co., North Carolina. Further evidence that this is probably our Elmira is based on the fact that they have a daughter, Parthenia, which is a common family name.

Elmira married James H. Lewis son of John Lewis and Charlotte Quillin in 1874 in Forsyth Co., North Carolina. James was born 1, 2, 3 about 1841 in Stokes Co., North Carolina.

In 1870, Stephen, age 20, and Peter, age 18, are living with the family. They are probably his children from his first marriage.

The 1900 Census of Belews Creek, Forsyth Co., North Carolina reflects the couple have been married for 36 years. They have had 9 children with 6 living. Only Maggie was still at home in 1900. Robert N. and Virgil T. are living close by.

Elias married Betty (Ida) McGee on 23 Feb 1896. Betty was born 1 about 1862 in North Carolina. She died in 1900 in Forsyth Co., North Carolina.

Her name is obtained from the death certificate of Alvin W. which shows his mother as Betty McGee while the death certificate of Athlai E. shows his mother as Ida McGee.

She probably died in childbirth since Elias is shown as a widow on the 1900 Census taken the 19th of June and Athlai E. was born in February.

His name is always given as simply N. W. Gordon but the 1900 Census of Guilford Co., North Carolina reflects that the N. stands for Nerieous so we can understand why his full name was not used. The 1880 Census gives his name as "Muns", apparently a nickname.
