William Moses (Will) Slaton age 22 was the son of Francis Marion (Frank) Slaton and Mary Ann Moore. As such, Will was the nephew of my second great grandmother Susan A. Slaton. Will Slaton was born and raised in Jefferson County, Tennessee. He was one of several Slatons that "went west". Will Slaton and his brother John Thomas Slaton moved first to Kansas and then to California. John Thomas Slaton moved to California before Will, and Will joined him there sometime after 1910. However, Will Slaton and his wife Lydia Belle (Belle) Hanely soon moved back east to Ohio where they lived most of their lives. John Thomas Slaton remained in California. Lydia Belle (Belle) Hanely age 19 was Will's second wife, his first wife Sarah May (May) Reneau having died in 1909. Will and May had a son Arthur J. Slaton born in 1909. May died 13 days after the birth of her son. Arthur J. Slaton was raised by his aunt Nancy Careen Reneau and her husband John W. Hamm, but I haven't yet found the infant Arthur in the 1910 census. I do not know what the connection was between Claude Moree age 21 and Will Slaton. But there were numerous Mories and Morees (variant spellings within the same family) in Jefferson County. So I would guess that Claude Moree was known to Will Slaton in Jefferson County, and that they had moved west together. |

Sarah Francis (Sallie) Slaton age 36 was the daughter of Francis Marion (Frank) Slaton and Mary Anne Moore of Jefferson County, Tennessee. As such, Sallie was the niece of my second great grandmother Susan A. Slaton. Sallie's husband was Wiley Porter Ingle age 29. They were married 27 Feb 1910 in Harper County. Sallie and Wiley had three children. If the 1920 census is correct, the first two children were born in Florida, and the third was born in 1917 in Tennessee. They were enumerated back in Jefferson County, Tennessee in the 1920 census, and apparently lived in Jefferson County thereafter. |
