Notes
Marriage
Isaac Ross and Etersa Van Meter were married c 1817 in Hardin or Grayson County, Kentucky. I have no proof of date or location as yet. Etersa was the daughter of John Van Meter,(b1764, d1822) and Dinah Holtzclaw (b1766, d1822).Isaac Ross and Etersa Van Meter apparently were married in Grayson County, Kentucky, c 1817. Etersa was the daughter of John and Dinah (Holtzclaw) Van Meter.
Marriage
The date of the marriage license for Isaac Ross and Mary McCarty appears to be 1843 but the last number could be a 5, making the date 1845. Since the death date for Etersa (Isaac's first wife) is given as 1845, it makes sense that the second marriage took place in 1845, after Etersa's death.Endnotes
