        Christian Jennings Ramey was born 24 Jul. 1897; he married Mary Catherine Young 1 Jun. 1918. She was born 8 May 1896, the daughter of Christopher Young and Matilda Wurts. Jennings states that there were five children living at home when his mother died in 1908; they were Maudie, Italy, George, Jennings, and Johnnie. Basil had returned home and was helping his mother rear these brothers and sisters after his father's death (Basil was divorced from his wife at this time). When his mother died, the older brothers and sisters decided that these children were too young to maintain a home. And so they were sent to live with older members of the family who were married. In 1909, Italy was married, and Maudie married soon afterwards. George, Jennings, and Johnnie continued to live with brothers and sisters until Jennings and Johnnie left Elkhorn City and George was married. Jennings left Elkhorn City when he was a young boy and came to Greenup County where he resided with his sister Vada Vance, and attended the Wurtland School. As soon as he was old enough, he started working for the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway Company, where he worked for several years. Then he worked for the E. I. DuPont Company, and later for the King Powder Company for many years. Jennings is now retired and resides in Wurtland.
