Clear as mud, right? In trying to figure out the best way to explain who all these folks are, I came up with my own system. You may just have to work with me on this one!
I want to introduce you to my Maternal (my mom’s) Paternal (her father’s) grandparents, Marcus L and Gemima Meek Butcher.
Marcus is the son of William and Mary Wells Butcher, born and died in Johnson County, Kentucky. He married Gemima Meek on the 25th day of October 1874. Gemima is the daughter of James and Julia Ann Vanhoose Meek. To this union was born 11 children. 
Most of their children remained in Johnson County, Kentucky area. Marcus was a farmer and Gemima kept house according to census records. They lived in the Greasy Creek area and in the 1930 census, the last census before their deaths, they lived with their son Lee and his wife Martha. They are both buried on the John Butcher Cemetery at Williamsport, Kentucky.

The following information is on this particular family: (I apologize for the marks on the pictures, technical difficulties always happen when you’re trying to get something done! but I chose to go ahead with it.)
I hope you enjoy meeting some of my family. Until next time 🙂
May God Bless and Keep you is my prayer!
