I am also researching this line.Lucy Ann Howerton was my g grandmother.She married James Mark Tatum in 1855 in Johnson County Texas.I think I found T J Howertons death in Itawambe co. Missouri in 1850.I found the court record of Lucy choosing Samuel Meyers as her guardian in 1854.Her mother is on the 1850 census in Tarrant co.We were always told that she was an orphan, so her mother must have died in late 1853 or early 1854.I haven't found any record of her death but she could have remarried before she died.I'm pretty sure I found Jeremiah and T J Howerton in Cooper co. Missouri on the 1840 census.Some of the children in cluding Lucy were born in Missouri according to the 1850 Tarrant County Census.I'd love to share info with you.
