He was the son of Josiah Curtis (b. 1794 Hagerstown MD, m. 1820 in Washington Co. MD to Hester Ernsparger). Josiah was the son of John Curtis (b. 1750 in Wales, m. Ealsy Wilkins of Baltimore MD) John Curtis served in the American Revolution and he and his children settled in Ohio Co. VA in 1832. Source: History of the Upper Ohio Valley, pub. 1890. James Curtis of Ohio Co. VA/WV (b. ca 1754) had children born from 1776 to about 1798, sons were Salathiel, John, James, and none of them had a son named William. Although these two Curtis families settled in the same place, there is no known link between them.

I am wondering if this family line had descendants migrate to Lewis County, WV. My ancestor is John Curtis b. abt 1792 in the Shenandoah Valley region. I believe he may be the son of a Henry and Catherine Curtis, but have no proof. John had a brother named Alexander Curtis and another brother named Zachary Curtis. Henry had a brother named Jesse Curtis. These names must ring a bell with someone researching the Curtis lines in Virginia and West Virginia. Any help is greatly appreciated.
