Verona celebrated its 150 birthday this past weekend. As part of the celebration, the reenactment of Vernon and Gladys Presley's wedding was staged. Although some reports state that they were married in Pontotoc, recent research reveals they were married in Verona with the service performed by Justice of the Peace, Robert Emmitt Kelly, who was my grandfather's brother and Dewey Davis's grandfather.
Yesterday I worked on geneology, and the last name I inserted into Family Tree Maker was Elvis Aaron Presley; Lancaster Tackett was both Elvis (on his mother's side) and Carole's great, great, great grandfather which makes Elvis and Carole cousins.
