Response to the Isaiah Wilkerson/Wilkinson (Howard wives) information below. William Howard, born ca 1802 in KY and who was in MO/AR, Marion County area by the 1820s (see the 1830 Izard Co., MO census), was the father of Mary and Elizabeth Howard who married Isaiah Wilkerson/Wilkinson of Marion Co., AR, but Hallelujah was not their mother. I think she was a third? wife of William Howard (called Billy), and that she was married to a Weir before they married ca. 1844 or so. I do not know the name of the mother of Mary and Elizabeth Howard. Mary and Elizabeth were sisters of my great grandmother Jeanetta Howard, born ca. 1834 in MO (Billy Howard's land seems to have been on the MO line) and raised in Marion Co., AR. I would love to have more information on this Howard family of Marion County, AR, if anyone can give more information. Thank you.
