Thomas Brantley (b. ca 1809, Bladen Co., NC-d. Sept 23, 1856 Union County, LA), married Caroline Elizabeth Tisdale (b. ca 1810, Sumter Co., SC-d. Sept. 28, 1847, Union Parish, LA). After the death of Caroline, Thomas married Holland Lee (b. ca. 1830-d. June 18, 1864, Union Parish, LA.) Is anyone researching this family? I need a little help. I'm trying to determine if Thomas Brantley owned my GG Grandfather 'Jim' before selling him to his sister in law, Jane (Tisdale) Calvert, wife of William Calvert, or if the Tisdale's owned him. All responses welcomed on this one. Thanks! Dena Calbert-Jordan N. California
