Okay - that's just spooky. This morning, I was drafting a future post for my connection to the May family that lived in Lewis County, KY:
"America Ann May (1839-1926), stood out for having an unusual name. She married Evan H. Day (b. 1839) in 1861, and later became the second wife of Henry Clay Prater (1836–1920) of Lewis County, Kentucky."
Henry had a daughter from his first marriage: Emily J. Prater (1862–1931) - clearly a different Emily, but uncanny that we're working in the same general area there.
