Martin R. Howard's will Pope Co., AR Will Book p.52 written by William B. Bell, Witnesses: Mary M. Bell & Andrew J. Bell. Martin died at home in Parker Co., TX 15 Sep 1862. The will mentions Martin's wife and children living in AR. Filed in TX 24 Nov 1862 Pope Co., AR 1863, Martin "was away from his home in AR"


Thomas moved with his parents at an early age to Rutherford County, North Carolina. He was educated in Iredell County and became a Presbyterian minister at the age of 33. He was assigned to pastor churches in Franklin County, Georgia. In late 1817, his family met a wagon train headed west from the Carolinas and joined them. While traveling through St. Clair County, his granddaughter Betsy Ann Ash fell from a wagon and suffered an injury that resulted in her death. Because the parents could not bear to leave her, they decided to stay and homestead the land near her grave. From St. Clair, Alabama Heritage Book.
