John Wilson married Ary Akin abt 1901 in Cumberland Co., KY. Ary was b.Sep 1883 in Cumberland Co., KY & d.abt 1954 in Knob Lick, Metcalfe Co., KY.

2. Ada Pernie Abney b.12 Aug 1905 in Cloyds Landing, Cumberland Co., KY & d.3 Jun 1991 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., IN.
Married: Authur Lee Vibbert aka Lee on 4 Dec 1924 in Clay Co., TN.

3. Bessie L. Abney b.15 Jun 1908 in Cloyds Landing, Cumberland Co., KY & d.6 Feb 1943 in Knob Lick, Metcalfe Co., KY. - Twin Girl
Married: John F. Smith abt 1924 in Cumberland Co., KY.

8. Alvin Edward Abney b.21 Apr 1920 in Cloyds Landing, Cumberland Co., KY & d.28 Mar 1944 in Knob Lick, Metcalfe Co., KY.

Unfortunately, 6 children of the 8 died of Pulmonary Tuberculosis. It appears that Ada and Lander may have survived or escaped this disease somehow as did the parents.

I have been unable to ascertain the exact death date of Ary, however, I believe that she possibly died about 1954. In addition, I have not positively located where John and Ary are buried, but it is, likely,it is here in Pedigo, where they buried most of their children.
