Pat : Please don't leave me alone .......... you may have something for me someday ! My Minta was known as Minnie, but she married, Benjamin Martin Isaac..September 21, 1883 in Whitesburg, Letcher County Kentucky. She was his second wife, his first wife was , Rutha Vance and they were married, March 18, 1866 in, Floyd County Kentucky. My entire Isaac line went from Kentucky to Wayne County WV. Most researchers state that Benjamin's given name was Martin, But my mother and all of her sisters confirmed his name was Benjamin. his headstone reads Ben. My Minta was born June 1862 in Walnut Ridge, Stokes County, North Carolina. Feel free to contact me if you have further questions.
