**************Note inserted here by Marian Brown *****************
There has to be a mistake on the above information regarding the dates
and children of George Isbell and Morning Medley Isbell. The above
information says that Lucinda Isbell was born before her father.
Therefore if this is part of your direct family I would suggest you
use
this as a stepping stone and follow up researching the information
yourself. Do not take it for face value.
