Judy, There might be some source material in the affidavits filed in the case of Lonnie Tilley vs Tennessee Valley Iron & Railroad Company, filed in Wayne County, TN Chancery Court in 1917. I believe the information may be in an affidavit from Sarah Cypert Shipman (Mrs. James Irwin Shipman). It was from that affidavit that we learned that Isaac II had a daughter Elizabeth Horton, b. about 1815 who married Jesse Cypert (son of John and Nancy Anderson Cypert), as Jesse's first wife. Elizabeth died about 1848/9 and her four children apparently went to Searcy Co., AR in the company of their Grandfather, Isaac Horton II. I can't remember if Sarah named all of Isaac II's children or not, but I know that old lists of his children were somewhat inaccurate. Ola Cates, if you are still subscribed to the TNWayne List, please contact me. I've lost your email address and need to update the link to the Horton Researcher's Page.
