Pat, I am a decendant of William (Edward's younger brother) who both married Susanna Smith. Have considerable data regarding the Curtis' of Rome twp, Lenawee, MI but could use some Moses / Jackson, MI info... Have you uncovered details regarding Elizabeth (Curtis) Rigden - Moses's sister? My understanding is she came to the US with Moses in 1853 (Moses's teenage daughter Harriet die enroute at the Welland Canal) with her husband, James and eight children. I have found but one - George W (Civil War Vet and close friend of William)... He is mentioned in William's probate of 1870. Let us compare notes...

I am descended from Moses, one of Samuel and Sarah's sons. I have no information on Samuel's parents but do on descendants who came to the U.S. I have also been in contact (although not recently) with other researchers who have worked on this Curtis line.
