*Note by Julia Williams Kodak:  This obiturary lists as Mrs. Robinson's 
parents, Barney and Etta Creed Ritchie.  Ethel was actually the daughter of 
Allen Barnel Ritchie, probably called Barney.  Allen was the son of Elbert 
Ritchie and Josephine Creed.  This is probably where the confusion on the 
Creed came in. Allen and Etta are on the 1920 Carter County Census as follows:
Ritchie Allen B.: Head Own Home, Free of Debt, Male, White, Age 37, Able to 
read, Able to write, born in TN, Father and Mother born in TN, a Farmer.
Etta: Wife Female White Age 36 Able to read, unable to write, TN TN TN
Anna Lee: Daugher Age 10
Beulah J.: Daughter Age 7
Ethel G.: Daughter Age 4
Josephine: Daughter Age 7/12
This family was dwelling number 5, Civil District 10, page 186.
In dwelling 7 was Allen (Barney's)mother, Josephine Creed Ritchie, widowed.
