Again! Yes I have done a lookup for Daniel in TX, but the last time he shows up in a census is the 1880 census, he is still in Jasper Co, MO. He has a new wife, Anne E. (Poole) Howell, and that is the last time that I can find him anywhere. He was 69 or 70 at that time, the census says 60, but that was misinformation. Annie was a hired girl that he married right after the death of Elizabeth (Abrams) Howell. None of the children moved to TX, a couple of grandchildren of Daniels ended up in TX. I have often wondered if it might not have been Texas County, MO that Daniel & Annie Moved to, but as the records for the 1890 census were destroyed, it has impossible to find them. I have searched the 1900 census without luck under both Daniel and Ann* Howell but could not locate either. I have also checked for the 1900 census records for both of the children that were listed with Daniel and Anne in the 1880 census, without luck there also. One of the children, was Leander Houck, the son of Daniel's daughter, Cynthia. SO the mystery of what happened to Daniel has not been solved as yet. Of 2 of Daniel's sons, 1 son, Lewis Howell disappeared in the Civil War, down south, no one has been able to find out if he was killed after he deserted on 16 Jan 1863. Another son, Levi Howell, came home from the war and went back down South and was never heard from again......so there are lot's of questions about the family in that generation..... Always hoping for more info to help solve some of the mysteries. This is my mother's family, she was born a Howell, the daughter of one of Daniel's grandsons. Oh well, maybe one day.
