Surnames:    PATTERSON NORTON
Elcrave@aol.com

I am looking for the parents of Washington Patterson, b abt. 1819 in Madison Co. OH. According to the census index, there were three Patterson's listed on the 1820 census living in Phelps TWP and all listed on page 52. They were Moses, Robert and William. What relation are these men to each other? I believe that Moses is probably Washington's father as Washington was married to Chloe Norton in Logan Co.

Since Logan Co. records burned I am stuck.
If anyone knows anything about these men, please help, as I have hit a brick wall with Washington.
