The Curtis Name Mary Curtiss 1824-1917 became Printiss when she married Charles H Printiss in Pittsfield Ma and they ran a tailor shop in that town. Charles father was Erastus and his mothers name was Elizabeth Luce.(this Printiss lineage lived in Pittsfield up to 2003. Erastus was born aprox 1790 and died in Pittsfield 1834. Can you find any reference to him in your notes? Fred Printiss [email protected]
