Hi Kyle. My mother was a Shoupe and did know your grandfather Oddie Sr. Before she passed she would help me with as much family information as possible. She told stories of Oddie and his snake handling. She also spoke of how he had to evade the authorities at times. It seems that not everyone understood his practices. I'm sorry but all I can offer is this brief bit of information to help you understand some piece of your grandfather. I hope it helps in some way.

After my mother died I drifted away from genealogy research and don't have much to add to my research that is posted on rootsweb.com. If you wish, you may contact me at kyphilpot@aol.com if you have any specific questions I might be able to help with.

Your cousin,

Jerry Philpot

My name is Magan Evans. My grandfather was Ernest "Bud" Evans AKA Dennis Farmer. His father was Will Farmer AKA William Evans. I, to, am having trouble trying to figure this out. From what I've been told, my grandfather told my uncle, that Will's dad, Craton Evans, murdered someone and was in prison, but I have never been able to confirm that. I even tried to get information from the prison, but they weren't very helpful. My uncle had tried as well and they never helped him either. Supposedly what Craton did was why Will and his siblings changed their last name to Farmer. I have not really been able to connect Will Farmer to Craton Evans. Will is a mystery. The only document that I have is a marriage certificate. All I really know is that Will died very young and that it was a mining accident. Do you know what mine it happened adn where? I've been told it was in Tennesses. As I've been looking, it seemes as though there many in that period of time.
