I have not found documentation myself, but I also have not seen a copy of Daniel's 13 September 1832, Washington Co., TN, pension application. As you probably know, those applications often listed children. THis is the extent of what I have about Solomon: ??Solomon Horton, b. abt 1802, Washington Co., Tennessee, d. aft 1850 Wright Co., Missouri, married abt 1822-1827 to NANCY CUNNINGHAM b. circa 1805/1806 TN; d. before 22 Nov 1858 Wright Co., Missouri. Nancy was the daughter of Phoebe Fine born circa 1779 at Shenandoah, Virginia, and Joseph Cunningham. Monroe County, Tennessee, 1850 Census District 2 -- HH #'s 252 - 617 Aug 30-Sep 20, 1850 612 Horton Solomon 48 M TN Farmer Nancy 44 F TN Jasper 18 M TN Martha 16 F TN Saphrania 14 F TN Matilda 12 F TN Nancy 10 F TN Bersheba 8 F TN Mahala 6 F TN Harlin 5 F TN Louisa 3 F TN There were no Hortons on the Monroe County 1860 census. So it appears that the family moved. This would fit with information indicating that Solomon died in Wright Co., Missouri. Get back in touch if you want information/speculation about other Hortons. Maybe I can be more helpful. Janice
Thanks for the info. I do know where Solomon went, in 1860 he and his wife were in Green Co., MO living near his daughter Sarah Chamlee (nee Horton) and daughter Sophronia Newcomb (nee Horton). In 1870 he was living with daughter Sarah Chamlee and listed as being a widow. ( daughter Sophronia disappeared, I think they died as a James Newcomb is in 1870 and 1880 listed as a nephew living with Sarah Chamlee) I have assumed that he and his wife died in Greene Co but have found no record of death or cememtery record. I will check Wright Co., MO that you have listed.....wonder where that bit came from..... Thanks for repling.
