Warning: Check the dates.
A marriage date should not be after a spouse's death date.
This supports Barbara's comments that Peter Larason Key did not marry a third time & Elizabeth Jenetta Turner is not his wife (married 13 Nov 1857 in Lawrence, Alabama, when Peter died 10 Sep 1837). Therefore, I'll detach her profile from his.
I show that Peter Key then married Eliza J. Terry. They had no more children. Peter died 15 Nov. 1879. I have been researching these Keys since 1973 and have never heard of Elizabeth Jenetta Turner. I would appreciate some discussion on this before I try to merge my Peter Larason Key to this group, even though I do believe he is the same fellow. Thank you.
