The following was told to me by Julia Ann Whitaker (b. July 25, 1913) on July 22, 1999 (Peggy's Grandmother):

Her father was never called by his middle name of Ramey. He was always called R. When he became a County Judge in 1934 or 1935, when Julia was 21 or 22, he was refered to as Judge Whitaker. He was a Judge in Menifee Co., Ky. for one term.

R. never drove. Julia states that her brothers drove but her father never did. When they lived in Frenchburg he would get up in the morning, eat breakfast; usually biscuits, ham, and gravy, would take his cane and walk about two to three miles into town to work.
