Biography

Jane Medley was born in February 1863 in Missouri

; date per 1900 census -- headstone shows 1860. Janes's parents were difficult to identify. Collaborating with Tracy DeVault, we found that Sarah Medley "cousin" and listed in the 1880 census living in the Jesse Paul Medley family, next door to the Samuel Harvey DaVault family, had a sister Jane, born about 1860. Tracy researched the ancestry of Jesse P. Medley and found the grandparents, James A. Medley (1760 - 1849) and Sarah E. Smith. They had a son Jesse, brother of Jesse P. Medley's father Robert Medley, and that Jesse was the father of Jane Medley and her sister Sarah. The following obituary of Nellie (Medley) Sorrell, sister of Jane Medley, confirms the identification:

The Bland Courier; Bland, Missouri; Thursday, November 29, 1945; Page 1 (Newspapers.com):
