Am researching Isaac Crouch, b. before June, 1838 in TN; marr. 20 July 1865, in Lincoln Co., TN (1st) Elizabeth J. Lovelace, b. 1846; they had the following children: Esterly CROUCH, b. 1867; Elisha CROUCH, b. 1868; Mary A. (Clemmy) CROUCH, b. 1869; Johny CROUCH, b. abt. 1873. Would truly like to find out what happened to Elizabeth, because Isaac was in Fulton Co., AR, and married to Jane Letticia Chesnut in 1874. Isaac died 6 June 1874 in Fulton Co., AR, and in his will he specifically requests that his 4 children be sent to their grandfathers (William CROUCH in Grundy Co., TN). Can anyone help me with his first wife, Elizabeth, or with any of the children from this first marriage???? Isaac was also in Co. A, 1 (Turney's) Tennessee Infantry, Confederate, during the Civil War and would like to find out about Capt. Alexander E. Patton's Co. 1 Regiment Tennessee Inf. if anyone can help. THANKS!!!!!

I am looking for information on Robert Newton COONROD, born in 1831, married 10-31-1854 in Warren County. His wife's name was Margaret BONNER, born 3-3-1835.
