Notes: Marriage (Charlotte Salmons):

James' War of 1812 Persion Application lists his wife as Lottie Ratliff, married on April 29th, 1854. Since her name is "Lotty", that could be short for Charlotte and these are the same women. With "Ratliff being her name by a previous marriage. Or, it could be that these are two different women, where James married Charlotte Salmons, and about a year later married Lotty Ratliff.
