- By 1850, it seems that Curtis Embry is perhaps with a second wife and second family. The eldest 2 boys were born in 1835 and 1837, the next 4 children were born between 1845 and 1850, and there is documentation that the marriage between Curtis and Rebecca happened in 1840. While it is possible that Rebecca is the mother to the first two children, it seems more likely that Curtis had a first wife who bore him two sons and then died.
1850 Census shows "Martha A" which could easily be just a mistaken hearing of Emeline.
On the 1850 Census, he stated that he was a farmer, and the total value of his real estate was $250 - considerably less than that of his neighbors. The household enumerated immediately before his was the home of the Sheriff, with real estate worth $1000. The household enumerated immediately after him was a farmer, with real estate worth $2,300. Was Mr. Embry in debt? More honest than his neighbors? More modest? Or just bad at farming?

| Notes |
- There are credible records of an 1840 marriage between Curtis Embry and Rebecca Larue. The 1850 Census shows Curtis and Rebecca in a household with 6 children, ages 15, 13, 5, 3, 2, and 3 mos. Those first two children were born several years before the marriage. It is reasonable to conclude that Curtis had a first wife, had two children, then lost that wife and married Rebecca in 1840 as his second wife. She would then have become stepmother to a 5 year old and a 3 year old.
