Description
Photograph of the Plauger family of Fort Valley. From left to right: Franklin, his father, Paul Franklin, his mother, Evelyn (McClanahan), and his younger brother, Charles.
Paul Franklin was the son of Charles Franklin (1877-1953) and Grace Mae (Munch) (1885-1956) Plauger. Evelyn O. McClanahan was the daughter of Mertie Edgar and Maude Estella (Clem) McClanahan. Both families were from Fort Valley.
They married in Woodstock on April 20, 1938, when Paul was working for a steamship company and Evelyn was just 16 years old.
Charles Edward Plauger was born on November 23, 1942. He finished high school and married Gloria Jean Richards a few years later, in 1964. At that time, he was working at the Safeway Store in Woodstock. Both he and his bride lived in the Seven Fountains area of Fort Valley. They divorced twenty-five years later when Charles was living in Bunker Hill, West Virginia.
In 1990, Charles married again, this time to Karen Lee (Potts) Titus, who was ten years younger and had also been married before. The couple stayed in Bunker Hill until his death.
