Cousins, Can anyone connect the four Patterson household in the 1820 Census of Bedford Co., TN?. They are: James Patterson 200110-22011 James Patterson 210031-02010 Nancy Patterson 311100-31210 Robert Patterson 111201-02200 Nearby is a George Little who's son John married Synthia (also used Saleatha) Patterson beore 1826. Unforntunately, many Bedford Co. records, including early marriage bonds, have been lost. These census returns suggest that the elded James, the Robert, and the probably deceased husband of Nancy listed were likely brothers. Please help. It seems that this grouping of Patterson should fit somewhere in the known lines of this family. Brian Walls Columbia, Maryland
