Hi Marge, I have the 1850 Bond Co. Census and there is a Isaac Patten (diffrent spelling) with a wife Jane. They don't have any children. It is a diffrent variation of your spelling, but a good chance that it is the same person....If you would like I can send you the infomation that it has on them...Hope this helps you some.
