Aden is the fifth child of nine born to his father, John L, and of seven born to his mother, Nancy (nee Cry). His paternal grandfather is Sanders Griffin.
On 6 November 1912, in Muskogee, Muskogee, Oklahoma, USA, he married Bessie and issued two children before he died.
The fact that he was unable to swim did not stop him from jumping into the Little River to save his son, Virgil, from drowning. A rope was thrown for him and Mr. Joe Taylor to grab, but Aden did not reach for it.
He was survived by his wife, both sons and a sister, Dora, in Siloam Springs, Benton, Arkansas, USA.
