Sorry it took me so long to get back with you on this but I wastryingto find out more information on otis. My grand father was Estellee(June's oldest brother) and Otis was their father. I was able tofind outthat he was born on October 7 1907 and passed away July 201985 and hewas born in Tazwell, TN. His father was Charlie Jessee andall I was ableto find out about him was that he came down to TN fromVA. After speakingto one of my great aunts I found out that a lot ofmy tree has been done.A lot of it has been done by a cousin J.K.Jessee, I was told I have methim but I can't remember. Also from whatI was told Charlie Jessee had abrother Lee and another son namedDallas. As far as the age at deathgoes....my father had MultipleSclerosis and his father died in a loggingaccident and his fatherlived to be around 77. My Great-grandfather Otishad 8 children 5 girlsand ...Estel Lee ( my papaw), Hollis (not sure ifspelling is correct)and my great aunt June are the only ones that havepassed away the restare still alive and the youngest is 62 I believe. Mygreat aunt'sPauline and Shirley are supposed to be gathering up theinformationthat they have and emailing it all to me or snail mail. MyGreat auntShirley thinks she has alot of the family pictures andpossiblypictures of headstones from an old family cemetery that isessentiallyimpossible to get to now. But they did get the names off themarkersand headstones when they were there years ago. Hopefully over thenextfew months I will be able to get with them and collect all thedatathey have collected over the years and make some sense of it all.
