I need any information on a (Miss) Bennie Howell born about 1865-1880. Records in Hardin County, Tennessee refer to her as Bennie Howell of Texas, an only child. I understand that she was in Cooke County, Texas as a young girl after the death of both of her parents. I don't have any idea what family was taking care of her. Both Witherspoon and Howell families seem to be in Lauderdale County, Alabama. She was the daughter of Benjamin E. Howell and Sarah J. Witherspoon of Lauderdale County, Alabama. Sarah J. Witherspoon Howell is buried at the Richardson Cemetery in Waterloo, Lauderdale County, Alabama. There is no headstone for Benjamin E. Howell. He could be buried there also or elsewhere in Lauderdale County, Alabama or Hardin County, Tennessee. Thanks, Steve Cooper Cloverdale, Lauderdale County, Alabama STEVECOOPER75@COMCAST.NET
