Marriage Records of Monroe County, TN 1838-1890 by Vonore Historical Society, Marriage of Isaac Presley to Martha J. Smith m 7/28/1851. Possible this Isaac may have also used the name Hugh Presley. In the 1880 Census in Saline County,IL there is a Hugh Presley m. Martha Smith, m 50 years. With children Lottie, Daniel B. Jacob, John W. etc. In the book:History of Montgomery County, Kansas on Ancestory.com. Under J. Hardy Smith, his aunt "Gatsie is listed as having married a John Presley. This Smith family came from Monroe County, TN to Hamilton County, IL in early 1850. Gatsie's father Henry was originally from New Bern, NC and went to Monroe County, TN. The family was known to be of Cherokee descent according to the book and my family history. Since I have not found any info on a Gatsie m. a John Presley maybe that was his given name and he used Isaac or Hugh and "Gatsie" seems like a nickname to me. Other Presley families were in Hamilton County,IL. John Presley m. ? Craven. On the other side of my family an Emily Pittman m. a John B Mansell from Jackson County,TN
