Hi Carolyn,
I am doing research on the Pattens have some information for you as I found a David Patten who married Catherine Umbarger. They had the following Patten children: Martha Ellen Patten, Henrietta Patten, George Albert Patten, Virginia Linn Patten, William Henry Harrison Patten, Orange Elwood Patten, Owen Wiley Patten, David E Benjamin Patten, Alfred Ellsworth Patten, Dorothy Jane Patten , Alice Henrietta Patten, Joseph Warren Patten, Sarah Eliza Patten. I think David Patten is a brother to John Patten the son of James Patten Nancy Gorrell. Feel free to e-mail me at
jarboe@psci.net for more information. Hope to hear from you soon as I have a link that I believe you'll be very interested in.
