Another reseacher sent a linage chart in 1990. His line coming down was Samuel CURTIS, Esp. 1791 Randolph Couny d. Jan 23 1859 Back Cr. Alamance County Community of Alamance,. He was a Hatter. ( I understand that Back Creek is in the western half of Randolph County while Alamance,Guilford, Randolph and Chartham Counties meet in the eastern corner of Randolph) Maybe Alamance County has a Back Creek too. Anyhow, Samuel belonged to John CURTIS b. 1760- 1770; John belonged to a Samuel CURTIS and a Samuel was a s/o of John CURTIS. Also, Amos CURTIS b. Jan 10 1782 in Randolph County, Nc. d. 1866 married Feb. 14 1807 Milly ESTES of South Cariolina. Somewhere I read that Amos had a brother name Moses. All of the above information was in the CURTIS Vertical files in the Randolph Room at the Asheboro Libery in Asheboro, Nc. I am connected to Samuel CURTIS b. May 13 1791 Randolph County, Nc. d. January 23 1859 in Randolph County, Nc. He married Nellie COBLE. I beleive that the mention John above that was found dead July 4 1816 is Samuel father. Why? Samuel CURTIS filed an Administrator's bond for the estate of John CURTIS, deceased, dated Feb. 7 1816, in Randolph County, Nc. and is from a file on the estate of John Curtis in the records of Randolph County, Nc. Information from the National Archives, national Geneological Society Quarterly, indicates John CURTIS, born June 2 1773, came from Derbyshire, England. ******Notes***** N.C.

Hopefully this will be helpful to you. I have traced my Curtis lineage to James Curtis of Randolph, CO. ,N. C. (1740-1795) married to Nancy Murray. They had eight children. My ggggg grandfather was their third child John. I found info. on this on Newton County, Arkansas families with a website by a Doug lee Curtis. I have been told that they have had difficulty tracing any further than James but are having some new info coming in. Possibly James father named Samuel. Let me know if I can help any further.

That is the same information I am looking for information on James Curtis born Randolph, Co., N. C. 1740 and married to Nancy Murray. My direct ancestor from James and Nancy was their son John Curtis. I have been told that it has been difficult to find further information prior to James in this line.

James' father's name was Benjamin M. Curtis. Some of my relation was born in Smith Co. KS before moving to CO. They came to KS->MO->OH. There is my brickwall.

If she was Cherokee, she and her family are probably listed in the series of books "Cherokee by Blood". These are basically an index to the Dawes Rolls - govt. rolls which were set up to supposedly compensate Indians for their losses (land, removal, etc.) They contain a wealth of genealogical data, since each applicant had t "prove" their status as a "qualified" Indian. This index is also on the National Archives site at http://loc.gov/ Go to the site, click on Research Room, then Genealogy, then Research Topics, then Native American Records, and on the right of the screen, will be a list of choices. Scroll down to and click on Index to the Dawes Final Rolls, or words to that effect. This is just an index, though. You would have to go to a Nat'l Archives site that has the actual applications (on microfilm) or possibly order copies (I'm not sure, but I think Archives might do that, if you have all the info from the index. You can check with them or read more on their site to determine that.) If that doesn't work, check and see if your library has or can obtain the books mentioned through interlibrary loan. Or call or visit your nearest LDS (Mormon) Family History Center and ask for help. They have some wonderful volunteers - and might even have the books on microfilm. Good luck in your search. --- Ttcowboy8@aol.com wrote: > Yes, one is eva. her mother was due east > curtis, cherokee full blooded. I > think her cherokee name for due is > Choo-He-Sut-Tah.

Hi, Toni. I love that name - Due East! Didn't our ancestors have great senses of humor? But - there are lots of Easts out there. Do you have a guess-timate on either a possible location (a state or states, e.g.) or some approximate dates? How old, for example, would your parent or grandparent be now? That could help establish a date range for ggrand-mom. --- Ttcowboy8@aol.com wrote: > I am looking for a Curtis who married my great > grandmother. Her name was Due > east.
