Hi Richard, I am finally getting back to you - a month later. Sorry! I checked my Pulaski Co., MO records for males who might be Isaac Riddle's son or sons. Found the following: 1840 Census - Pulaski Co., MO 214 RIDDLE, Abner 00001;1001 218 RIDDLE, Emanuel 00001;20001 224 RIDDLE, Isaac 00001;21001 223 RIDDLE, Jess 10021;000101 214 RIDDLE, Richard 00111001;00100101 Civil War: Assessment Roll for Pulaski Co., MO 1863 RIDLE, Isaac age 21 Cullen Twp. pays tax rather than duty 1864 RIDLE, Elias M. age 18 Union Twp. refused to do military service RIDLE, Isac age 23 Union Twp. refused to do military service LAND SALES IN PULASKI COUNTY, MISSOURI VOL.

I also have cemetery records, wills and marriages. The author included marriages which occurred for residences of the county who were married before they came to Pulaski Co., MO. Riddle's appearing in marriages are: RIDDLE, Emanuel & WEST, Amanda ca 1835 RIDDLE, Isaac & WILLIAMS, Margaret ca 1839 RIDDLE, Jesse & CAIN, Narcissa 1836 RIDDLE, John & JOHNSON, Sarah no date RIDDLE, Thomas & CARMACK, Sarah 1830 Well, that's the best of my knowledge.
