    Notes:

    This proves that "Percival" was NOT the famous novelist/humorist's middle name. "Pope" is written in his mother's own hand. The Opie Pope family had a business across the street from the Read's carriage shop in Nashville in the 1850's, hence the name. Percival was made up as were many of his stories about the family.

    Opie Read was a novelist, humorist and journalist. Much of theesrly info here is from the Encyclopedia Britanica.

    Opie married Ada L. BENHAM on 30 Jun 1880 in Texarkana, , Arkansas. Ada was born on 31 Jul 1856 in Fairfield, , Ohio; died on 24 Jul 1928 in Chicago, Cook County, Illinois. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
