Riley and Harriet appears on 1870 and 1880 Fannin Co Census as well. Listed next to them on 1870 Census was Marshall (possibly Rileys son John M.) and Louisa Powell with son Marion (b 1864). Louisa Powell widowed and living alone appears on 1900 census Gravette, Benton Co, Arkansas. William L Powell, son of Lafayette Powell was born 1901 in Gravette, Benton Co, Ar. Lafayette appears on 1910 Greene Co, Mo census as you mentioned and on 1920 census with wife Gracie/Grace. Grace was the informant on his death Certificate. Lura may have been the dau of Milligan. Did Milligan die and Martha marry Lafayette or were they simply living with his family??? I hope this helps, Bill Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
