The files are not totally inaccessible and it will depend on just where my file on this Elijah is located as to whether I can get to it from a practical standpoint. I'll see what I can locate. However, from the information you gave me, you probably have as much as I do on him. I did trace him to Missouri, that much I remember and I think, but not positive, that I may have had info on his siblings and his father, but it has been over 15 years since I last remember looking at his folder, and it's probably closer to 20 years ago. I may have something on him though in my more readily accessible notes and I'll check there too. I know that it is not always easy to distinguish him from Elijah Curtis b. 31 December 1776 in Anson County, North Carolina, especially in some of the statewide records of Tennessee, such as militia records, etc., as both men settled for a time in Tennessee. Elijah Curtis of Anson was in Stewart County, TN from around 1807 to about 1816± when he moved first to Marengo Co., Alabama, then to Sumter Co., Alabama, and finally to Choctaw County, Mississippi in 1854 where he died in 1864. --- Jay
