Patteson or Pattison or Patterson.

According to a letter from L.C. Patteson to Margaret Smithson in 1941, the Patteson family was of Scotch-Irish descent.

Most information about progeny of James Patteson, Henry Patteson, William Henry Patteson and Lena May Patteson in this gedcom is from private genealogy notes written by my aunt, Ruth Virginia Miller, ca. 1940-1970.

Genealogical table from Phyllis Anne Bransford July 2003 gives
James Patterson b: 9 Jun 1795, m: 5 Nov 1816 to Sally Bransford b: 5 Jul 1796

Additional information from Alice Rupe: middle name.

Can someone help, please?
Where were James Philander PATTESON and his wife, Sarah Woodson (BRANSFORD)
PATTESON buried? They both died in Appomattox Co. in 1862, while visiting
kinfolk. Can they be buried at the same location as brother-in-law
Henry C. PATTESON? Where was he buried?
They seem not to be buried in the Hix-Patteson grave yard.
