20		Ariel map of Oak Hill Dairy, Somerset Ky Per Bobby Sidwell interview with his mother, June Avera, This shows where the Sam Colyer Oak Hill Dairy was in the 1920-40's. June Avera reported that her mother and father, Bob Avera and Elaine Colyer Avera lived in the farm house when first married and that June lived there from birth til about age 5. Sam Colyer lived on Monticello St, Somerset Ky so the farm house was secondary and he let Elaine, his daughter, live there when first married. Bob Avera's father's farm was across the street. See Sam Colyer diary this site mentioning Avera barn fire and see dairy cap photo for Oak Hill Dairy this site. In 2015, Bobby Sidwell reports that house and barn on this map of Oak Hill Dairy are original from 1930's.	Robert A. Avera Elaine Colyer Samuel Colyer

49		Charles Granade Colyer grave Status: LocatedHere is picture of Clay Hill baptist church and cemetery where Charles Granade Colyer is buried as well as picture of Charles grave and that of his wife Louisa Jane Meece Colyer in Ruth Ky. Although it is known that Charles enlisted and fought for the south in the civil war, It is interesting to see his grave stone not being traditional confederate pointed top form as adopted by government in 1906. This and his membership in Knights of Pathias reconciliation fraternal organization may show his post war sentiments.	Charles Granade Colyer
