HI! I'm research the CHRISTY and BARTLETT families who were originally in Claiborne Parish then in Lincoln after it was formed. T. P. Christy married Mary Ann BOYT in Lincoln parish 1879. Then they just seem to disappear until the 1900 census down in Rapides Parish. So far all the Christy's I've found in north LA during the 1800s can be connected to this family thru T.P.'s grandfather, Thomas Christy who was in the 1830 and 1840 Claiborne Parish census. My Barlett line is Harriett who married John Christy in Claiborne Parish 1850. He died in the Civil War and she remarried a Rhesa SMITH in 1866. The only other Barlett I found in Claiborne was a Daniel and Nappier Bartlett. Daniel signed her marriage cert and is later found in Lincoln Parish. Does anyone have connections with these families? Thanks, Debi
