Can't find Curtis in any census record. Children Martin Van Buren born around 1832 and Sarah Elizabeth (LAPPIN) born 1838. Curtis lived Monroe Co. around Somerset. Martin Van Buren lived back and forth between Monroe and Belmont Co., Moved in 1880s to West Virginia. Any help on the above families would be appreciated.
