There is some confusion about Hoke Salyers' birth year. Although all documentation states he was born on the 3rd of July, some documentation states he was born in 1894 (1900 US Census and World War I Draft Registration for example) or in 1895 (World War II Draft Registration and Social Security Application and Claims Index for example), we may never know for sure which year exactly he was born in. Since the 1900 Census and World War I Draft Registration are documents that occurred closest to his birth, that is the date I used for his memorial.

Hoke married Samantha Ollie Conley on 27 Aug 1919 in Morgan County, Kentucky. They had three children:

Lovell Christine Salyers b 8 Aug 1920
Opal Euquella Salyers b 3 Oct 1922
Letha Juanita Salyers b 20 Apr 1924

Samantha died on 11 Feb 1948 in Ashland, Boyd County, Kentucky and Hoke married Gypsy Lee Robinson on 12 May 1948 in Franklin County, Ohio. There were no children from the second marriage.

******** WARNING! ********
There were TWO Hoke Salyers born in 1893! They were both from Johnson County. They were both great grandsons of the same couple! Be careful in your research if you happen to have one of these two men in your ancestry!
