I am researching the ancestor and decendants of Benjamin CURTIS and family of McNairy County and also Tabitha JEWELL. Benjamin CURTIS, was born about 1798 (place unknown), and died in McNairy County about 1853. His wife was Sarah?? said to have been Native American. Their children were: Joel D., Jane, Malinda, Arilla, Solomon and Benjamin F. On the 1850 census Tabitha JEWELL is listed alone with her two daughters, Margaret JEWELL, and Jane JEWELL. Tabitha's husband is unknown. I am more than willing to share any info.
