Parents:
Children: (The deed record from Claiborne Chisum to Ann Chisum m. George Wheelock confirms she is the child of Isham Chisum. This appears to indicated Claiborne Chisum is also a child of Isham Chisums. Isham Russell Chisum has the name Russell (see records below showing contacts with the Russells) and contacts in Texas with Jesse Walling – husband of Ann – indicating he may actually be the son of this Isham Chisum. Elijah, James, and John appear in tax records in Covington Co, MS along with Isham Chisum and “may” be children of Isham, but this is not confirmed yet).
- Claiborne Chisum (very likely)
- Elijah Chisum (possibly)
