Samuel HOWARD¹ {M} = Mary Greer² {F}

Married 11 July 1875, Floyd Co, KY³

Samuel HOWARD:

on Thu, 14 Sep 2000, in response to Deed from John H Howard & Susanna Howard to Samuel Howard, posted by Laurie McKenzie on Sun, 23 Apr 2000

I believe this John H. Howard is the one we descendants commonly refer to as John E. Howard although his tombstone on the Howard Fork of Licking in Magoffin Co. KY has his name as John H. Howard. John H. Howard was b. in 1829 Floyd Co. KY, the son of John Howard and Nancy Cameron. He married Susannah Shepherd b. 1832, dau of Jacob Shepherd and Elizabeth Hale. We believe she is buried on the same cemetery as her husband but there is no marked gravesite. The Samuel Howard mentioned in the deed is probably one of their 14 children.
