This was a large and prosperous family about the time of the Civil War. They lived in the Black Hawk area and had married into the ATCHISON Family. We have been unable to rouse anyone with any connection with this clan. Even if it is a scrap of data, please let us know of anyone with close or distant ties with the family. One family was white and another black. Gratefully H. Fisher Yazoo City, MS

Corbin, b c. 1798. My gg-grandfather, Lewis Shelton, was listed on the 1850 Carroll Co. census as living with William Corbin. He was 14 years old at the time. He later moved to Arkansas. I have a second connection to Carroll Co.--my great-grandmother, Mary Ella Kindred (later Bryant) was born there around 1860 (I say around because she would never tell anyone her true age, but was over 100 when she died in 1963). Her family later moved to Limestone Co., TX in the 1870's. Lewis Shelton moved to TX in 1860 where he lived with an uncle, Lewis B. Shelton. Drury was the son of Taliaferro and Jane Irby Shelton who were married in Pittsylvania Co., VA and lived in SC, GA, and Blount Co., AL. The lineage goes back to Ralph and Mary Crispen Shelton in VA! . Let me know if you see any connection.

One of his sons was Jams Dunalp Pate (married Ellen E.). One of their children was Maude N. (?) Pate, who married Dr. Benjamin F. Kittrell. Dr. Kittrell and my great grandfather J.L.C. Pate both served in the Black Hawk Rifles. There is a Sketch" of the Black Hawk Rifles on "Dixie Boys" site, telling about their experiences. They were in the 22nd MS, Company 'G'. Eleanor E. Kittrell's first husband was Dr. John Shivers and her second was Benjamin R. Clark, according to what I have pieced together. Many persons were named after close family or friends. My father's half-brother was named Kittrell Pate and lived near Caddo, OK in his adult life, after the family moved ther from Carroll County. That's probably enough for now. Hope it helps. Will be glad to hear from you. Dan Pate

Belinda, This would be the correct Stigler/Bruce family. I did see where Wilna Bruce Stigler died and her son last year. I still haven't gotten any further back than Henry Clay Stigler's parents. I would also love to share info on the Bruce family as I have several Bruce members in my lineage. Henry Clay Stigler died less than 8 hours after his last child was born (John Henry). Would love to share what I have. Thanks. Teresa Randall Bransby april0496@aol.com
