Jimmie, I was going through some archives and found your posting (see below) from September 2002. From the 1860 Laclede Co., MO census, I have highly suspected that Isaiah was the father of William Daniel who married Martha Rogers. Were you able to gain any additional information on Isaiah from your posting? Do you have any additional information to prove that Isaiah is in fact the father of William? The fact that he was living with William at the time of this census leads me to believe that this is the case, but certainly does not prove it. I would love to come across some additional substantiation of this fact. I am descended from William as follows: Reuben, b. 1837 Reuben, b. 12 Mar 1867 Wayne Esleworth, b 18 July 1892 Zola Lillian, b. 14 Feb 1918 Terence Michael "Mike" Lanning, b. 15 Sep 1946 ************************************************************************************************************ Descendants of Isaiah Josiah Daniel 1 Isaiah Josiah Daniel 1784 - 1860 b: Abt. 1784 in NC or TN (?) d: Aft. 1860 in Laclede Co., MO (?) ......... 2 William Daniel 1811 - b: Bef. 1811 in TN ............. +Martha Rogers 1815 - 1870 b: Bef. 1815 in TN m: June 29, 1837 in Shelbyville, Shelby Co., IL d: 1870 in Woodson Co., KS .................... 3 Isiah Daniel 1830 - b: Abt. 1830 in Shelbyville, Shelby Co.
