Ann, The only listing I have regarding William Howard is pg 24 of the "The Times of Long Ago" by F. Gorin states that "Among the earliest settlers in that part of Monroe County taken off of Barren County, were......Rev. John Longdon, Rev. John Mulkey, Rev. Jacob Chism.... Wiliam Howard, Rev. Philip Mulkey..... Hopefully you can track down the other pastors listed and eliminate their churchs from the list.... Also is this Howard related to Hardy Howard born abt 1801 in South Carolina...My husband's maternal ancestor??? Hardy Howard moved to Houston County, Ga and then to Choctaw County, Mississippi bef 1850..... Choctaw County, MS Deed Book G, Page 304-305 Hardy Howard to Michael Howard was dated September 12,1837.
