I was asked to share the obituary of my Grandmother who was born Johnson County. Although obituary says 'Whitten" official documents say 'Witten". She died in Portsmouth, Ohio. The obituary did not say her father's name, which is Francis M. Witten. Her two daughters are Roselyn Malone (my mother) and Mary Ballard. Mrs. Edna Pennington's husband is Ernest of Greenup County. Currently I do not know who is the husband of Mrs. Zulla Vanhouse. Any Help always appreciated.
