2005 - listed as a surviving sister, Evelyn (Ralph) Blacksten of Columbus, Ohio, in brother Jennison 'Rod' Conrad's Jan. obit.
I can't find Evelyn in the 1930 census. She isn't listed with her real parents, nor with Samuel B. and Ida Belle Storts, who, according to the obit, raised her.
What is questionable is that in at least two obits, one in 2004 and the other in 2005, Evelyn is listed as a surviving sister to Verdalla Louise (CONRAD) Heston and Jennison CONRAD. However, in Evelyn's own 2008 obituary, the only sibling listed that preceded her in death was Helen SMITH. Helen SMITH was a daughter of Sam and Ida STORTS. Why weren't these siblings who preceded her in death also listed in her obituary? And why weren't those that survived her listed?

He was a son of Jacob Fletcher. With the exception of four or five years, which time he spent in Fulton county, he lived at Ray's Hill and Everett. In 1890 he moved to Bedford and resided here ever since. For many years he followed carpentering and afterward was employed as a tanner by J. B. Hoyt & Co., and Fayerweather & Ladew. He countined at this occupation as long as he was able to work, when, about twenty years ago, he laid aside the tools he had skillfully handled so long and enjoyed a well-earned rest. In 1862 Mr. Fletcher enlisted in the 133rd Regiment, Pennsylvania volunteers. He was appointed color bearer and participated in a number of battles, among them being those at Chancellorsville and Fredericksburg. Bedfore the war he belonged, successively, to the Old Whig, the Know Nothing and the Republican parties, b ut during the strife he became a Democrat and remained true to the principles of that organization the remainder of his life. For a long time he was constable of Monroe township.
Fifty-seven years ago he was united in marriage to Miss Sarah A. Foor, daughter of John Foor, of Ray's Cove. Mrs. Fletcher died in March, 1901. Mr. Fletcher was the father of eight children, six of whom are still living, namely, W. Scott, of Bedford; H. Clay, of Clearfield; Mrs. Henry Friddle, of Moorefield, W.

Alma Ethel PHELPS, d/o Silas T. and Sarah E. PHELPS, was born Nov., 30, 1885 and departed this life January 26, 1915. In early girlhood she united with the Presbyterian church at Greencastle, but in later years transferred her membership to the First Presbyterian church in Columbus, Ohio, of which she remained a member until death. She was a member of the class of 1904 of the Lithopolis High School and after graduation taught in the public schools for three years. On the completion of a business course she accepted a positition with the Hub Furniture Company, Columbus, Ohio, and later one of the Columbus Pharmacal Company. In June 1911 she went to Denver, CO., where she occupied a similar position until returning home in September 1912. Throughout the long weeks of her illness she was always cheerful and took a very active interest in everything about the home and also in public events. Her days of sickness were greatly cheered and brightened by kind remembrances from neighbors and friends, whose gifts of flowers, fruits and delecasies are sincerely appreciated by the family. She leaves to mourn their loss, father, mother, one sister, three brothers and a host of relatives and friends.
