Children

1. Step-daughter, Lovedy Ann CURRIE (1824, Montgomery, GA—?) md#1: James A. MONK, (1810—1860) on 16 Mar 1845, Montgomery, GA. md#2: William A. MILLER, (1831—?) on 10 Feb 1861, Montgomery, GA ^[2]
   (NOTE: There is evidence ^[8] that when she was 6 years old on 22 Dec 1830, she had her name changed from Loveda Ann KELLEHAND. Was she a step-chid of Malcom's, as her birth year seems to be a year before her their marriage? If so, was she Susan's child from another relationship? This appears to be so because she was named Loveda after Susan's mother, so she must have been Susan's at birth. Another possibility is that she was the child of Susan's younger sister, Nancy CALLAHAN (KELLEHAND) (BRIDGES) who was married to someone with the same last name. See "Children" in their father's Bryant's profile.)
