The IGI says they were married in July 1848, but I have their son b. Aug 1848. Thanks! (I have the 1870 census index and the 1867-1908 birth and death indexes, so no need to check those.) De-Vonna >> Hi De-Vonna, Here are references I found to a Charles BAILEY and a Phoebe Ann CURTISS. Some of these imply the existence of more than one Charles BAILEY, and more than one Phoebe Ann CURTISS. 1. Huron County, Ohio Marriages, 1815-1900, by Scheuer Publications. Charles BAILEY m. Phoebe Ann CURTISS 3 Jul 1848. Pheby Ann BAILEY m. William FULTON 12 Mar 1872. 2. Huron County, Ohio Cemetery Inscriptions. Page 608. Section 14-- Ave B to Ave A-- Row 1. 6 Phebe A. CURTIS 1825-1891. (The Phebe A. BAILEY in the 1870 Census Index has a birth year of ca 1834). 3. History of the Fire Lands, by W.W. Williams, 1879. Page 105. Section on Roster of Soldiers (Civil War). Under Company M, 1st Regiment, Ohio Heavy Artillery: "Corporal Charles BAILEY died at Covington, Kentucky, November 17, 1863." (The Charles BAILEY in the Death Index 1867-1908 died 01/20/1894.) 4. 1880 Census Index, Huron County, Ohio. Charles BAILEY, Norwalk Twp, 158A. I don't think I've mentioned it before, but great job on getting the 1850 Census Index to Huron County, Ohio online. Regards, Ken Shute, in MD (kwsroots@aol.com).
