  • Notes 
    • James Monroe Herdes (Roe),only son of Joseph Herdes, married at age nineteen to Sarah D. Snyder. They were married in Clay City on February 15, 1883 and also lived on a farm northeast of Clay City.

      Sarah, who was ten years Roe's senior, had been married previously to Seth Evans and had one child, Johnny Evans, who was remembered fondly by his nieces and nephews.

      Roe and Sarah had eight children, five of whom lived until adulthood.

      The three sons, Claude, Charles (Chart), and James all lived out their lives as farmers in the Lathrop Chapel neighborhood near Smith Cemetery northeast of Clay City.

      The Herdes legacy now continues more widespread through the progeny of Claude, Chart and Jim Herdes.
