1. | Lula M. Jones 28 Jan 1892 Hinton, Harrison County, Kentucky; 1946Kentucky. Other Events:
Notes: Lula M. Jones was married first to Willie Switzer on January 28, 1909 and they were divorced in Cynthiana, Harrison County, Kentucky on June 27, 1930. Lula married John Francis Boyle on February 7, 1935; she was 43 years old and John was 73 years of age. My grandfather, Howard Francis Boyle, told me that he and his siblings were not happy about the marriage and it was believed that Lula married John for his pension. There were problems almost immediately that seemed to be, in part, caused by one of Lula's sons by her first marriage. However, John had a history of leaving home at his whim and he would travel all over the East Coast of the United States. I would not be surprised if he had visted every state in the East and he was most definitely in most of them, as records show. In some cases, he traveled because the pension board ordered him to get an examination but on many other occassions he seemed to leave of his own accord. John spent many years, over multiple instances, at the Central Branch National Soldiers' Home near Dayton, Ohio in the late 1890s through about 1917.
