James Thomas Curlee was 1 year of age in 1870.


James Thomas Curlee is 11 years old and is working as a farm hand on his father's farm. He has 8 siblings in 1880.




 
James Thomas Curlee and Margaret Lugenia Hill, daughter of James Pleasant Hill and Sarah Emmaline Parker, married 23 April 1893 at Rocky Mount Baptist Church Polkton NC. James Thomas was 23 years of age and Margaret Lugenia was 18 years of age. (The marriage license states Margaret's father was Clement - I think that is an error - all the records I have seen state her father was James Pleasant Hill)
They had 4 children during their brief marriage:

Henry Seborn Curlee, 20 Apr 1894-10 Apr 1968, married Fay Blanche Williams.
Aaron Columbus Curlee, 23 Mar 1897-30 Jan 1978, married Rosa Belle Austin.
Harvey Pleasant Curlee, 8 Aug 1898-06 Jan 1978, married Kate Swanner.
May Belle Curlee, 07 Aug 1901-10 Sep 1981, married Arthur Benjamin Allen.

In the 1900 Burnsville Census, Margaret and three of her children are living with her father and mother. There is no mention of her husband Tom Curlee. I cannot find him in the 1900 Burnsville census. Her youngest child May Belle was born in 1901.
