Ken, I couldn't help but notice that you have two names that belong in my family line of Harpers. Melton & Low. My Melton/Rice/Low/Harper connections eventually ended up in Sabine Co. TX, but maintained contact with relatives in the Bienville, LA area. Do you happen to have knowledge of a Catharine Jane Melton b. abt. 1815 in TN D. 1891 in Sabine Co. TX? Her husband was a Joseph Rice b. 1806 in SC m. abt .1830 in MS Died in 1868 in Sabine Co. TX? I'm curious to see who are the brothers & sisters of Isaac W. Melton? Who are his parents & grandparents? Where did this family come from? Thanks, Janina Surname: Melton ------------------------- Beth, my Isaac W. Melton is shown first in the 1850 census in Bienville living with the Low family. Does your book have any info on Isaac? THANKS
Hi Janina & Ken, I have a family with the surname of Melton living 3 doors north of me. I am going to take a printout of this e-mail to him to review.
