Mrs. Phebe Outten in closing her last letter to the writer asked the question, "Have I boxed the compass? If so, go and do thou likewise."
It is worthy of notice that the family of Isaac Jr. was connected with the town of Maysville, Kentucky, and it is probable that he emigrated to that section early in life, as it is plainly stated that his youngest son was born there. We know that Ephraim Outten, who was a brother to Isaac Jr., and who married Sukey Leatherbury, step-daughter to John Purnell Outten, went from the Eastern Shore of Maryland to Maysville, Kentucky. They no doubt emigrated together, and probably all the Maysville Outtens descended from them.
Isaac and Margaret left a numerous progeny, but like all the other branches of the family, their descendants were mostly from their daughters, and, of course, they bear other names. It seems likely that the Outten name in the Isaac family will soon be extinct.
Margaret was born March 23, 1775, and died November 6, 1863, and Isaac Jr. died January 19, 1837.
