I am researching the CURRENT family who resided in Pettis Co, MO before going to Johnson Co and then Vernon Co MO. John H Current born 1813 in Grafton W VA, moved to Delaware Co, IN and married Martha L SMITH her family was from Ohio and Vermont. They had children William CURRENT born IN, who married Emma KULLMER in Pettis Co, in 1870. They later moved to St. Louis, MO. Alexander Martin CURRENT born 1846 IN, married Nellie MATTHEWS 1869 in Pettis Co, MO. I believe they moved to Logan Co, OK. Luther T. CURRENT born 1847 IN, who married Sallie Elizabeth CURNETT who was their neighbor, in 1873 Pettis Co, MO. They moved to Vernon Co, MO. Nannie CURRENT born 1851 IN she married Samuel WINSTON in 1869, but by 1880 she has moved back to her parents' home with a son Charles. I have lost track of her since 1880 census. I do not know if she remarried or where she went. Lewis Albert CURRENT born 1847 IN married Mattie CRANSTON (?) sp variation. I found a Lewis Albert Current in Parker, TX, but married to an Abbie Burrow. I am not sure if this is my Albert or not. Mary Rose CURRENT born 1855 IN married Nathaniel Porter also from Pettis Co, MO in 1873. They move on to Lincoln, Nebraska. Lastly my line is Stephen Anson CURRENT born 1857 IN married Laura Jane STONE-father Oliver Miller STONE-they married in Johnson Co, MO in 1890. Around 1900 Stephen, and Luther along with their father John move to Vernon Co, MO. Would like to share information.
