Notes for Edna Hensley:
per Barbara Deaton:
Edna and Ance lived on Porter Fork of Shoulderblade. Their son, Frank, was handicapped and died of pneumonia when he was 11 years old.
Edna enjoyed doing things with her hands. She liked to sew and quilt. She had an inclination for music. She could play the accordion, the banjo, and the organ. Minta recalls, at the age of 4, how she mutilated Edna's accordion with her little scissors. Edna was heartborken.
Edna always had a good voice. Late in life she took piano lessons and learned to play rather well. She then began taking a much more active part in the musical portion of her church's services. Edna gave many years of service to the Presbyterian Church and its ministry.
As her age advanced and her health declined, Edna sold out in Breathitt County and went to live near Minta and her family. She had heart problems and was a diabetic. Edna was active throughout her last days. She set out cabbage palnts the day before she died in April 1991.
