Surnames: Pruitt Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/QhB.2ACI/1524 Message Board Post: I am looking for anyone with a good access to TN state census, marriage, probate, or tax records to see if there is an 1850 or 1860 census that could help me to locate my David Elisha Prewitt as a boy/young man. I would also be happy to find his brother, Carroll Prewitt These names, of course, could be spelled Pruett/Pruitt/Prewit/Prewitt/Prewet. Or any possible Civil war records that might show them. I belive their parent's names were Gilbert Jackson Prewit and Mary Jane Stephens. each born c.1830
