I'm just saving Connie Wireman's response to a deed I posted at Magoffin Co Deeds site until I can figure out where it fits in the database:

Posted by Connie Wireman 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.

Girl JONES {F}

Born BET 1825 AND 1830
This child is inserted because she is shown on the 1840 Floyd Co, KY census.

Wiley JONES {M}

Born BET 1835 AND 1840, Floyd Co, KY
It is not proven that Wiley was a son of Charles and Jemima, but he signed as a witness to the marriage of Nelson SALYER and Elizabeth HOWARD and is therefore temporarily included here.
Also, in the 1840 Floyd Co, KY census, there is 1 male under the age of 5 which means Wiley could have been born between 1835/1840.
