Hello,

You didn't give any dates or where you think your James lived. I offer
some information I found while looking for my ancestor, Dr.Malcolm M.
Currie 1841/44-1890 who lived in Amite County, MS and died in Louisiana.
If I came across a Currie or Curry I collected the information not
knowing if they were related or not. I transcribed the information from
microfilm to my notebook and from my notebook to this e-mail. I've tried
to transfer the info as carefully as possible. I'll post this info to
several list, hoping that someone will profit from the info.
