The above names and dates are contained on the Florida Death Certificate and he used the following aliases between 1937 and 1963:
J Clayton Sloan, Jack Clayton Sloan(e), Clayton Jackson Sloan(e), Clayton Jack Sloan, Jack Clayton Sloan, Jackson Clayton Sloan, John Clayton Sloan.
Jack Clayton Sloan married my grandmother (Sibyllia Sowell), 5 Feb 1939 at Pensacola, Florida. They both were residing at Evergreen, Alabama. Jack was 35, from Charleston, South Carolina, never married before. They came to Pensacola the last week of July 1939, to go to hospital and the doctor said my grandmother had to stay in bed for the rest of the term. They rented rooms together but Jack came and went and didn't return again after 27 Sep 1939.
There was a bigamy case at Pensacola, Florida between 15 Dec 1939 - 25 Jan 1940. He served 3 years of a 5 year sentence at the Florida State Prison at Raiford, Florida. He was caught by my grandmother after she had been abandoned by him before the birth of my father. She was reading the newspaper one Sunday and came upon the marriage announcement of Marcella Reedy and Clayton Jackson Sloane of Cincinnati, Ohio & New York City.
During the trial, the prior wife to my grandmother, Artelia Whitten, stated he had had two other wives, one died and the other divorced him. She was living at Sheffield, Alabama at the time of the trial. Jack abandoned her a few months before the birth of their child (no more details of this child have been found). Artelia married a Mr Gist later.
There was a John L Sloan living at Sheffield, Alabama, 1930 Census with Lucile Risner. I am in contact with another grandson of Clayton or Jack or John and he heard his grandmother Ellen Dickey died when his father was approx. 9 years old, ca. 1929. John L Sloan was born 24 Apr 1898 in Franklin County according to WWI Draft Registration Cards. This other grandson never knew his grandfather and just heard that he was living in Florida and died in the early 1960s.
I found a torn up and taped together again photo amongst my grandmother's things after my father died and I came in to possession of it. The man in the photo was identified by Marcella's much younger brother as that being the man he knew as Jack Clayton Sloan.
Eloise Sloan Press' son, Mark Press, took an autosomal DNA test and matched extremely high with Seán Sloane, son of John Clayton Sloane. Apr 2017. This proves John Lance Sloan and Clayton Jackson Sloane were one and the same person.
