Her father, Amos Horne, was born in 1879 in Crawford County, son of William and Mary Ann (JENNINGS) HORNE. William was the son of Amos and Lavinia HORN of Warrensburg, Johnson County, Missouri. Mary Ann "Polly" was the daughter of Nathaniel Scales JENNINGS, and his wife Mary Ann (CRAIG) JENNINGS, and was born in 1840 in Lafayette County, Mississippi. William W. HORNE was a Confederate, in the Missouri Cavalry, and later, after marriage, was in Washington, Crawford and Sebastian Counties, Arkansas until his death in 1886. He and Mary Ann must have married about 1864-65 in Dardanelle or Yell County but can find no record of the marriage. In 1870 census they were living in Cane Hill, Washington Co., AR, with daughter, Jesse. In 1860 census, Mary Ann "Polly" Jennings was in home of her mother, Mary Ann (CRAIG) JENNINGS, in Dardanelle, Arkansas. Nathaniel JENNINGS was head of the Jennings householD in 1840 and 1850 census, but I can not find his death listed or place of burial for either him or his wife, Mary Ann JENNINGS. Mary Ann (JENNINGS) HORNE, with two of her children, William, Jr., and Mary Ann (HORNE) WILSON, are buried at Calvin Evans Cemetery, out of Magazine, Logan Co., AR. This is a lot of data, but basically I'm trying to find death and burial place for Mary Ann (CRAIG) JENNINGS, and her husband, Nathaniel Scales JENNINGS, probably in Yell County. They had several sons in the area still living with families at turn of century. And am trying to establish marriage of Mary Ann JENNINGS and William W. HORNE about 1865. Wonder if perhaps the Dardanelle Horne's and the William and Amos Horns of Missouri weren't related and William was in Dardanelle after the war, where he met Mary Ann. That would be romantic. We never give up do we. I can just visualize these old timers in a struggle to make a living down in the bottoms in Dardanelle. Some of my Cotton relatives came to Dardanelle from Tennessee in oxen drawn wagons. And they did prevail and raise large families of successful sons and daughters. Thanks for your thoughts.
