Mary Stacker Luckett
(June 4, 1872 - Aft 1937)
"Their eldest child, Mary Stacker Luckett, was born at Eddyville, Kentucky, on January 4, 1872, but as a young girl moved to Clarksville with her parents. Her early training, like most Southern girls of that day, was with private tutors, but later she attended Miss Belle Peers' Finishing School at Louisville.
"On December 14, 1899, she married William McClure Drane, born May 23, 1866, in Clarksville, the son of William McClure and Amelia Washington (Haddox) Drane, early settlers of Clarksville.
