Reference: Pratt Familyl Bible.
; The birth and death dates of James Howell and his wife Martha E. Stewart appear in the Pratt family Bible, along with the family of Alexis Briscoe Pratt (who was about the age of their children).
     Is there a family relationship between the PRATT and HOWELL families?
     Is Martha E. (Stewart) HOWELL the same Martha E. who was the daugter of Grief Stewart and Mary Polly Cahal? If the two Marthas are the same person, then she was the aunt of Alexis's wife, Mary Elizabeth McGinnis (who was the dau. of Martha's sister, Leurena/Lurena Ann Stewart McGinnis).
     It also seems that the year of birth (1822) and birth state (Virginia) for each Martha is the same based on available evidence.
     The HOWELL and PRATT families were all living close to each other in 1860 and 1870.
-- James & Martha HOWELL appear in the 1860 federal census for Warrenton, Twp Warren Co., MO and they are on the same page as Martha E. Stewart's brother, Peter P. Stewart.
-- In the 1860 census, Grief Steward and his family were living in Elkhorn Twp., just next to Warrenton/Elkhorn.
-- In the 1870 census for Elkhorn Twp, Warren Co. Alexis's parents and family were in Hickory Grove, just next to Warrenton/Elkhorn.
-- In the 1880 federal census for Elkhorn Twp, Martha HOWELL, and Alexis and Mary E (McGinnis) PRATT are living in the same household.
Based on this evidence, I have concluded that the two Martha E. Stewarts were the same person.^21,22,23,24

The Lindsay News, Friday, Oct. 13, 1939, page 1:

"MRS. MARY E. PRATT: Passed Away at Pauls Valley after Illness of Four Months."

Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Pratt, pioneer mother of the Lindsay community passed to a well earned reward, Friday, Oct. 6, 1939, at the age of 81 years, 8 months and 26 days.

Mrs. Pratt came to what is now Garvin County from Kaufman County, Texas in 1889, and has made this section her home since that time.

She became ill a little more than four months ago, and had been bedfast since that time. At the time of her passing she was at the home of her son Tom Pratt, and had previously been a patient in the Pauls Valley hospital.

Funeral services were conducted from the Lindsay Baptist church, with Rev. Black delivering the funeral discourse. He was assisted by Rev. Lee L. Reeves and Rev. Walter Douglass. A choir of voices from the various Lindsay churches sang hymns and the girls quartet, Misses Mary Beth Abbott, Elizabeth Ann Reeves, Betty Louise Boone and Florence Irene Parker, sang a special number. The pall bearers were Messrs. Chas. Nelson, Chas. Callahan, Virgil Howard, Walter Price, John McCaughey, and Alvin Cudd.

Mrs. Pratt was born in Warren County, Missouri, January 10, 1858.

She was united in marriage to A. B. Pratt in Missouri in 1879, with whom she moved to Texas in the early days, moving to this section of county in 1889. Mr. Pratt passed on August 16, 1932.

There were nine children born of this union, one of whom passed away in infancy. Surviving are T. B. Pratt, Pauls Valley; Mrs. Jennie Godwin, C. S. Pratt and R. D. Pratt of Lindsay; W. H. Pratt, Portland, Ore; F. D. Pratt, Denver Colo; and Jack Pratt of Arizona. Other survivors include a number of grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Mrs. Pratt was a member of the Baptist church, with which organization she had been identified for many years, and was an active worker as long as her health permitted. She was possessed of many fine friendships and her passing is mourned by all with whom she had association.

Interment was in Green Hill cemetery, the Brown Funeral Home was in charge of the arrangements.

; Alexis Briscoe PRATT death cert. says Thomas P. Pratt.^9,10,11
;      N. B. There is some confusion concerning the parents of the Elizabeth HUDSON who married Alexander "Sandy" PRATT. Some researchers believe the parents were Zadock and Mildred (Adkinson) HUDSON. This relationship has been posted on Elizabeth and Zadock's Find A Grave memorial pages and some family trees (e.g., THE Tom Pratt Family Tree). Others believe that Elizabeth's parents were David and Ann (Caswell) HUDSON (e.g., the Smith- Evans- Sanders- Ittner Family Tree).
     While I have so far found no definitive proof of who her parents were, I do not believe that they were Zadock and Mildred (Adkinson) HUDSON. Zadock was born in SC and his wife in TN. Zadock died in MS in 1855 and appears there in both the 1840 and 1850 federal censuses.
     On the other hand, Elizabeth was born in VA (1826) and married Alexander PRATT in Warren Co., MO in 1844. I find it unlikely that Elizabeth's parents would have moved to MS by 1840, but would have left her in VA (or in MO).
     Alexander's nephew, Thomas P. PRATT (son of Alexander's brother, Thomas Briscoe PRATT), married Susan Elvira HUDSON, the daughter of David and Anna (Caswell) HUDSON. Elizabeth (HUDSON) PRATT was born in VA in 1826. Susan Elvira (HUDSON) PRATT was born in VA in 1829. David and Anna (Caswell) HUDSON were traveling from Culpeper Co., VA to Warren Co., MO ca 1834 when David apparently died enroute. Their youngest sister, Virginia Ann HUDSON, was born in MO in 1835, after Ann (CASWELL) HUDSON had arrived. Finally, in the 1830 census for Culpeper Co., VA, David appears with two daughters aged "Under 5" (i.e., born after 1825). the daughters Elizabeth and Susan match this perfectly. His third daughter was born until around (or just after) the time he died ca 1834/5. The 1840 Census (Elkhorn Twp., Warren Co., MO) shows an Ann HUDSON (with no adult male), with 6 children that perfectly match the age distribution of all of the known children, plus a daughter of the age of Elizabeth (b1826).
     This circumstantial evidence leads me to believe that it is more credible to assume that Elizabeth B. (HUDSON) PRATT was the dau. of David and Ann (CASWELL) HUDSON, and not of Zadock and Mildred (Adkinson) HUDSON. GA Vaut.^{12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20}

Thomas P. Pratt appeared on the census of 1830 in the household of Thomas Briscoe Pratt at Culpeper Co., Virginia, USA; [Note: There is a Thomas B PRATT (p.124) and a T B PRATT (p. 116) in the 1830 Culpeper Co., VA federal census; both of whom have a Male "20 thru 29" as the oldest male in the household. My Thomas Briscoe PRATT [#2235] woud have been 25 at the time. Both households show one child, a boy under 5 years old. Thomas's son, Thomas P., was bornin 1829 and would have been 1 year old in 1820. Therefore, I can't tell which of these might be my direct ancestor.]

;      From Roll email 3 Aug 1998: [QUOTE]I have a picture of Rawley Crow, his two marriage entrys, his Masonic petition, and census' for 1880 and 1890 I believe. There are several variations on Rawley's spelling...even different on his two marriages. It is spelled "Rolly, Raleigh, and Rawley. Rawley owned a store in Callaway County named R. H. Crow & Company. He sent pigs and grain by barge down the MO. river to St. Louis. ... His first wife was Lucinda Boyd and she probably died in child birth and then he married Susan A. Gray. 9-7-1855. Rawley's parents, Joseph & Sarah Humphreys came from Nelson County, KY. and settled in Callaway County and built a house in 1819 near Wainright.
     I knew that Martha had married Charles Hart but have no information on them on down and now I know why since they moved away.
     Let me know what you would like for me to send you as will be most happy to do so. I have info on a couple of Martha siblings but not all of them.

Photocopy of letter from Dorothy Heinkle (April 12, 1987) to George Merry Stanley, niece of Janan HART CLARK (provided by Janan HART CLARK Nov. 16, 1993):

"Your Great Great Grandparents were Prudence Allison Todd and Epenetus Hart. They lived on a farm near Washington, MO which Prudence inherited from the Todd family - her parents. All their children were born there and they had about ten children. As was common in those days a number died in infancy or as very young children. Five children survived and lived long lives. Information about the five is on a separate page. They decided to sell the farm which they did and moved to Montrose where they lived until their deaths."

photocopy of Will from Henry Co. (MO) Hist. Soc.:

Montrose, MO, December 31, 1894: "I, Epenetus Hart, being of sound mind and memory, do hereby make publish and declare this to be my last Will and Testament, hereby revoking and making void all former Wills be my at any time heretofore made. I give devise and bequeath to my wife, P. A. Hart, all my real estate wherever situate, of which I am the owner in law or equity, to have and to hold to her and her heirs forever, generally, absolutely and simply. My intention in this being to give her an absolute fee simple so that she shall have power to sell same in her discretion and give good title thereto. And it is my desire that all said real estate, in any real estate purchased with the profits thereof, or exchanged therefor, in any property which may have resulted from the sale of any of my said real estate, shall at my wife's (the said P. A. Hart) death be so devised, in otherwise adjusted by her ... becomes at her death the absolute property of my children E. E. Hart, C. T. Hart, Anna E. Davis, Cora L. Hart, and of my grandchild Clara M. Hart, share and share alike between the five. But I do not wish it understood that this desire of mine that she at her death shall thus dispose of the property shall in any wise impose such a condition on would destroy the fee simple in her, or limit her power to convey a good title to the real estate above mentioned. I give and bequeath to my son, C. T. Hart, the sum of Five Hundred Dollars, that he may be thereby enabled to complete a certain trade made for land in the state of Arkansas, and the residue of my personal property, after all my debts existing against me at the time of my decease, shall have been paid, to my wife for life and at her death to the said E. E. Hart, C. T. Hart, Anna E. Davis, Cora L. Hart - my children, and the said Clara M. Hart, my grandchild, share and share alike. In making the above disposition of my property, I have had in mind Emma Hart, widow of my son J. E. Hart, deceased, said Emma Hart now being so near as I know, a resident of Bozeman, Montana; and I desire that my wife, P. A. Hart, out of the property already bequeathed to her, pay the said Emma Hart, the sum of five dollars. I wish it further understood as my desire that should my said wife, P. A. Hart, re-marry after my death, that her power of disposition over my property shall then cease, and her only right-therein shall be an equal share in all, personal and real, with the above mentioned E. E. Hart, C. T. Hart, Anna E. Davis, Cora L. Hart and Clara M. Hart. I hereby nominate and appoint my wife, P. A. Hart, as my executrix and ask that she be permitted to serve without bond, and that she be relieved of all the process and proceedings of administration law, except only the probate of this instrument."

In Armstrong Hart Esq.'s will dated 26 November 1829 at Franklin Co., Missouri, USA, Epenetus B. Hart was named as an heir; Franklin Co., MO, Will Book A, Pages 66-70:
In the name of God Amen I Armstrong Hart of the County of Franklin in the State of Missouri, being in a low state of health and knowing that it is appointed for all men once to die and believing it very probable that the disease under which I now labor will prove fatal, but feeling assured that my mind is unimpaired and that I now possess a disposing memory, I do make the following my last will and testament.

First: I wish that my body should receive at the hands of my friends and executors a decent burial.

Secondly: It is my wish that all my just debts be paid and for that purpose it is my will that my executors sell at private or public sale as they may find most expedient so much of my personal estate as will raise a sum sufficient to pay them. If, however, my executors should think it would be more to the advantage of my estate to pay my debts out of the rents that may be coming to me from the letting of my interest in the grist and saw mills which I now own, then it is my will that my debts be so paid and my personal property be disposed of as hereinafter mentioned. If my executors should settle my debts out of the rents of the mills, then it is my wish that my wife take and keep during her widowhood the whole of my personal estate to be by her used for the support and maintenance of the family, and if my executors should sell a part of my personal estate, then it is my will that the remaining part and the rents of my mills be given to my wife so long as she remains single to be used by her as aforesaid. It is my desire that my wife remain on the plantation where I now live and cultivate the farm, but if in her opinion and in the opinion of my executors it would be more to her interest that the farm and ferry should be leased, together with the negro man Paul, then it is my will that they be let out and the profits be given to my wife for the support of the family. My wife received out of the estate of Isaac Murphy at the appraised value the negro man named Paul that is now in the family. Whether by the laws of the country this negro is my property, I am not advised. If it should so turn out that he is not mine and those who have now or should hereafter have the management of said Isaac Murphy's estate should claim off of my estate the hire of said negro, then in that case I wish my executors to charge the estate of said Murphy with the raising and schooling of the heirs of said Murphy. If my wife should think proper to marry again, I wish for my executors then to dispose of all the personal property, after she has taken her share, and the amount raised by such sale and the hire of my negro girl Louisa and the rent of my mills to be then applied to the schooling and maintenance of my three sons, Albert, Epenetus and Joseph. After my three sons are raised and become of age, I will to them and my four daughters in New York, to wit, Maria, Eliza, Emmy and Susan Ann, my interest in the tract of land upon which my mills are built and my interest in those mills, my negro girl named Louisa and her increase, the negro man Paul (if he should be my property) and indeed all and every thing that may at that day be a part of my estate. It is my desire, however, that my girls should receive their shares of my estate at an earlier period than the time before mentioned, and if my executors after a lapse of some three or four years after my decease should be enabled to make an estimate of my estate and should find that it will [not] injure the estate to sell so much thereof as will pay them their shares, it is then my will it be so arranged.
I constitute and appoint Bennoni Sappington and William G. Owens executors to this my last will and testament. In testimony of all which I hereunto set my hand and seal the twenty-sixth of November in the year 1829.

Dickson B. McGinnis Made a Fortune in California's Gold Mines

Dickson B. McGinnis of 1100 Jackson Avenue, who was buried this afternoon in Elmwood Cemetery, was the last of the Pike county, Missouri argonauts, who were lured to California in the first days of the ‘49' excitement over
the finding of gold.

Pike county contributed nearly one-third of the "forty-niners". Mr. McGinnis aided in organizing the first expedition of the Missourians to California. He remained there until 1852, when he returned to Missouri. He had acquired wealth. Mr. McGinnis came to Kansas City before the boom days and sacrificed a great deal of his holdings in the slump following the collapse of the "boom". In his late years he was a contractor. He was 78 years old.¹⁶

; The following information was sent to me in July 1997 by Gary D. Duke of Freeman, MO. He researched the McGinnis family for 15 years beginning in 1982. He is a descendant of William W. McGinnis, Jr.

Dickson D. McGinnis appears to have been the youngest child of William W. and Betsy, but I have not conclusively proven he was their child (we have now found that Dickson was the oldest child of Strother J. MCGoinnis). Dickson was born in late 1828 in Ky and moved to MO when he was seven years old. He married Lurina Stewart in 1853 in Warren County and lived near Strother's family and his own brother Thomas P. He worked in a tobacco processing plant. After the Civil War he moved a short distance, back into Lincoln County. I do not have information about him after 1870.

Dickson Dedman McGinnis was listed as a resident in Strother Jefferson McGinnis and Elizabeth "Betsy" Lee Massie's household in the census report in 1830 at Southern Division, Franklin Co., Kentucky, USA;
Not sure if this is my Strother McGinnis or not. He would have been 23 at this time, which matches and would have been married 2 years. His wife Eliz. Massie would would have been about 22 at the time, though the census only shows 1 white female aged 15-19. His first son, Dickson, would have ben about 1 at the time, which matches the one free white male under 5.
