My paternal grandmother, Drucilla McCrary, was born in 1847. She was the youngest of Jasper McCrary's 10 children, and the youngest of five born to Drucilla Wood McCrary, Jasper's second wife. She had 4 sisters, 1 brother, and at least 3 half-sisters, and 1 half-brother.
Born and raised in Warren County, she married Matthew Ivey, also from Warren County, when she was 19 years old. Together they had 3 girls and 4 boys over an 18 year span. Matthew was a farmer and she took care of the home. Probably after her husband died in 1915, she lived with her youngest daughter, Mae, and her family until she died in 1930. She lived to be 82 years old.
