Narrative

Note: Shared family line for Lafe Thomas and Daisy Belle Weaver

Like his older brother Faye and Faye's wife Hazel, Lafe and his wife Daisy Weaver also shared an ancestor. Lafe's wife was his third cousin - they shared a second-great-grandfather, Isaac Thomas Sr. Daisy was a descendant of Isaac's daughter Anna Mary Thomas, who married Abraham Gimmens Beaber. Lafe was descended from Anna Mary's younger brother, the Rev. David F. Thomas and his wife Anna Weible.
