"The Massie Family Home Page"
Updated September 6, 2000This page is dedicated to the research of the Massie family from Greasy Ridge, Mason Township, Lawrence County, Ohio. My Grandfather; Fred Levi Massie, was born on Greasy Ridge March 2, 1883, a son of Elza Massie and Eliza Jane Spears. He married my grandmother; Effie Nancy Brumfield, on December 19, 1917. Elza Massie was born March 9, 1861. He married my great grandmother; Eliza Jane Spears, on March 19, 1881. Eliza Jane died in1900. Elza then married Arminta Isabel Watts Roach on January 2, 1903. Elza died February 15, 1935. He and Eliza Jane are buried in the Mt Pleasant Old Baptist Church Cemetery on Greasy Ridge. Elza's Certificate of Death indicates that he is a son of Jepthah (Jeptha) and Mary Massie. In 1865; following the death of Jeptha, Mary filed a "Widow's Claim for Pension" and named Elza as one of her and Jeptha's children. There was a Jeptha Massie born in Virgina in 1821; a son of Jeptha Massie, Jr and Anna Meadows, who married Mary Massie November 18, 1841 by J. Massie, Justice of the Peace. Nothing is known of Mary. Perhaps she was a cousin of Jeptha's. | |
