Dear Jeanne,
I am a descendant of Joseph Henry Patton (son of David & Abigail) and his wife, Amanda
Busey. It looks like we have similar information on David and Abigail; I also haven't
been able to get them back beyond Butler County, Ohio. Below I have included much of what
I know about the Pattons. Most of it is from the Patton Bibles which can be found on
Lynda Parker's website:
http://www.crwws.com/Genealogy/Patton1.htm and
http://www.crwws.com/Genealogy/Patton2.htm
Is this the same website you were referring to?
Do you happen to have any photos of Lydia (Patton) Lewis? I like to collect copies
whenever possible. I don't have any photos of Joseph Henry Patton, but I do have one
of his brother Jacob Patton. If you have been to Lynda Parker's website, it is posted
there.
http://www.crwws.com/Genealogy/Photos/Patton/PattonPic.htm It is a carte de visite
and was taken during the Civil War (it has a C. W. tax stamp on the back). Thankfully,
someone labeled it: "Unckle Jacob Patton" It was taken in Cincinnati. I
don't know when or where he died, but assume he was a bachelor.
I'd be interested in learning more dates, places, etc., for Lydia, Sarah and the other
Patton children. Where in Illinois did the Lewis family live? Sometime around 1843,
Joseph Henry Patton and his family moved to Hancock Co., Illinois. I haven't found if
he died there or not, but by 1849, Amanda and the children were back in Tippecanoe Co.
They seemed to have some sort of connection with a Thompson family in Hancock Co. Later,
Joseph's son George married a Thompson.
Thanks for writing. Let me know if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Andy Likins
Colorado Springs, CO
