Notes
Mr. Edgar E. Weston, presently of Copan, Oklahoma, formerly of Barry County, Missouri, furnishes some
family history of Eli, son of Isham and Beddy;
Eli was born in Bedford County, Virginia in 1789 and moved with his father and family to Smith
County, Tennessee, where he married 31 August 1807 Sarah Turner. Sarah was also born in 1789.
After their marriage Eli and Sarah purchased land on Drakes Creek in Sumner County.
During the War of 1812 Eli served in the Tennessee Militia.
About 1840, Eli and family moved to Allen County, KY, near present Meadorsville, where Eli
died 10 January 1847. In 1870 at age 81 his widow Sarah was still living in Allen County, but
died soon thereafter.
