This came from 2 sources who wrote articles regarding these families that are published in books. Any one know them? need more information on Elizabeth Ellen Easte and James Stricklin. James was born in 1824 in Tennessee, but I don't know any more than that. All I know about Elizabeth Ellen Easte is that she married James on the 29th of November of 1841 and all her children were born in Dent County, Missouri. I also do not have any information about James parents.
I found two sources for their marriage-one the dent county marriage book & the other was out of the dent county heritage book. One had her name as Easte, another Caste. It could be either. I have found various spellings for James last name, from Stricklin, to Strickland. Thankfully, no matter which version one uses, its all within the same soundex! Also, if you have a chance, look at the Dent County Heritage books. They have a wealth of information on James and the family. If I can find the page I copied, I will forward it onto you. James married after Margarette's death - Polly Ann Winchester. They had a son, George Washington Stricklin. ----- Original Message ----- From: <cskolt@yahoo.com> To: <MOTEXAS-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, March 28, 2006 10:14 AM Subject: [MOTEXAS] Re: Smith Family in Licking, Strickland family in Houston > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Classification: Query > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/kNB.2ACI/1930.1 > > Message Board Post: > > found that the last name is actually spelled Stricklin.
