Houston McDaniel, Monroe county, TN mid 1800s, >AR or MO
I trying to find out what happened to Houston McDaniel of Monroe County, Tennessee.A bit of background:
Delilah Jane Miller married William M. Wright in Monroe County, Tennessee in June of 1845. Another researcher passed along the following information to me: William M. was a cripple and an heir to Thomas and Elizabeth Wright. William made baskets and received a pauper's pension from the County. William died unexpectedly in May 1846 leaving widow Delilah and infant son William T.J.. Delilah J. Wright married Houston McDaniel 3 August 1848 in Monroe County, Tennessee.
In 1856 a land dispute arose from some land that Houston & Delilah sold to William Russell Tallent. The land belonged to Delilah through her late husband, William Wright. The court case from 1856 stated that Houston and Delilah had moved to Arkansas or Missouri.
I'm trying to find where Houston, Delilah, young William and whatever other children they may have had went when they left Tennessee.
Thanks,
Juli
