Isaac said to have married Elizabeth Sarah [or Sarah Elizabeth] Grubb about 1827. Surviving children included Ganum b. 1829 who married Rebecca Phelps 16 Jul 1849. John Wesley b. 1837 who married (1) Mary Ann Soard and (2) Mary Brown. Prior Lee, b. 1844 who married Katherine Meyers, 15 Dec 1867. Gareth and Lucinda are names seen for some of the older children but without any additional data - also a Jasper Lee b. 1846, but he must have died as an infant as he doesn't appear with the family in 1850.

Probably not a son of Isaac but who is he?
There is a Samuel McBee in Claiborne Co in 1850. He was then age 27 or born about 1823 - he would have been age 7 in 1830 when Isaac had an unidentified son age 5-10 in his household. Isaac was household 723 in 1850, this Samuel was household 730. Isaac's older brother William already had a Samuel who was born 1822 and married Emily Van Bebber - he is in this census in Claiborne Co near his father William. Isaac's younger brother Caswell also had a son Samuel, born about 1831, who was married to Nancy J. Lewis and he's next door to the mystery Samuel. The Samuel in household 730 was age 27, wife listed as Almeady age 20, and a baby boy, Prior Lea, age two months.

In 1860, there was still an unidentified Samuel McBee in Claiborne Co. He was by then age 37. Wife was given as Arminta, age 29; Prior L. age 11, was in the household. Robert L. or S. was age 8, Margaret A. 4, and Julia M. age 2. They were next door to Isaac in this census.
