Would like any info. on Issiah CURTIS listed on 1830 Census, P-298.
We believe he could be the father of Paten Eli Curtis b.1829 near the
Ky. Tenn. border. He had several brothers one named Isiah who lived
with him in 1870 Red River Co.Tx.Issiah CURTIS was possibly married
to Nancy BARR DOYLE from Giles Co. Tn. Although I think this was a
second marriage. They are listed on the Lauderdale Co,Al.census in
1850. He is a shoemaker. They are on P-359. Any help would be greatly
appricated. We don't know who Paten's family was.

I am researching the family of John STEPHENS, my grandfather, and his
wife, Ethel Grace MCMASTERS, my grandmother. John was born
12/25/1896, and died in April, 1971. He had several brothers. Three
of them were Joe, George, and Ralph, all of Lawrence County. George
had a son named Harris STEPHENS, who used to run a grocery in
Lawrenceburg. The only info I have about Ethel Grace MCMASTERS is
that she died around 1953 and is buried beside the church at Five
Points, in Lawrence County. She may also have had some Cherokee
heritage. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
