Celety Futch^{[1, 2, 3]}

circa 1796 - 1854  (~ 58 years)

• Name	Celety Futch
  Born	circa 1796	North Carolina, USA   [4]
  Gender	Female
  Died	Nov 24, 1854	Scott county, Mississippi, USA   [5]
  Notes	Great granddaughter Coreta Fae Goodwin Smith wrote in a letter that "Celety Futch was a weak willed, retiring and mild mannered woman, married to a strong willed, domineering man."     The Lewis Plantation in Scott County was next door to John and Elizabeth Futch and had a very nice horse racing track that I am told that even today is an open field that can be seen as a round track of grass.     It is said that Celety died of a broken heart two years after her daughter Letha was driven from the family home by Stephen Lewis.
