 KYBIOGRAPHIES:

#8189: A Sesquicentennial History of the Green River Missionary Baptist
Church 1836 - 1986, Written and Compiled by Wendell Holmes Rone, Sr., For
the One Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary of the Founding of the Church,
1987. By permission of author. Ohio County BEDFORD FRANKLIN FLENER
(1844-1924), the father of John Harrison Flener, was born in Butler County,
Kentucky, the fifth child and second son of William Harrison Flener and
Mary Ann (Snodgrass) Flener. There he grew to manhood, and on October 24,
1865, was united in marriage to MISS VIRGINIA C. MARTIN at the residence of
William Martin in the presence of P. H. Hill, W. B. Neel, Milburn Neel and
T. S. Wilson. Joe W. Adkins signed the Bill of Consent which accompanied
the Butler County Marriage License, secured on October 18, 1865. She was
probably a native of Butler County, also. They became the parents of at
least five children, as follows: James C. Flener (b. August, 1878); William
Martin Flener (b. June, 1881); JOHN HARRISON FLENER (b. May 13, 1884) and
his twin Harriett Flener (b. May 11, 1884) and Mollie G. Flener (b.
February, 1892). There were probably others, but we are short on records.
Green River Church Records show that only B. F. Flener, William Martin
Flener and John Harrison Flener of the above family became members of the
Church. William Martin Flener was elected as a Deacon of the Church on
March 27, 1909, and ordained on the following April 23rd. He was lettered
out in 1913.
