James "Jimmy" Prater James (Jimmy) Prater, 90, of Morehead, formerly of Hueysville, died Sunday, April 28, at the St. Clair Medical Center, Morehead, following a short illness. He was born June 9, 1900, at Hippo, the son of the late G Jack and Essalona Click Prater Allen. He was a U.S. Army, federal government warehouseman. He attended the Rock Fork Christian Church in Morehead. He was active in the Senior Citizens Program at Morehead, visiting and singing for them with his wife. Survivors include his wife, Martha Hicks Prater of Morehead; one son. James Ishmael Prater of Columbus, Ohio; one sister, Kitty Dingus of Martin; three grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. Funeral services will be conducted Wednesday, May 1, at 11 a.m. at the Hall Funeral Home Chapel with Charley Riggs, Jerry Manns and Ersel Huff officiating. Burial will be made in the Allen Cemetery, Hueysville, with the Hall Funeral Home caring for those arrangements.
Obviously, he cannot be born in 1900 if his father was born in 1899 and mother in 1904, and these seem solid from other primary records, such as SSDI. Are the father and son the same individual? If anyone can straighten this out, please let me know.
