I have been told that he left Saline Co. for California bef 1892 but he would have been very old. In 1860, he comes from Carroll Co., MS to Jefferson Co. AR, he is still there in 1870, but in 1877 he is listed on Tract book #88, C&F Railroad Sect 29 Page 226 as receiving land. Something had to happen to that parcel of land if he left for CA.
