• Notes

  Married: "Before they were married, they never went anywhere together. During the week, he would send her a note by a Negro boy telling her that he would be coming to see her on Sunday afternooon at the home of her parents. Her sister and family did not get to the wedding because the oxen which were to pull their wagon got out of the pasture and could not be found in time." (Speights, p. 36).
