Notizen bei William Dood Howard

William Howard married Mary Salyer

William was the youngest brother of James, he was born in Russell County, Virginia (1860 Breathitt County U.S. census) in 1783, died 6 March 1868. He is buried in the William Howard Cemetery which is in Breathitt County on Rt 542. This location is the Quicksand area at the mouth of Spring Fork. Connie A. Wireman located this cemetary in 1978 and copied the information from the 9 graves which had markers. There also 20 graves in the cemetery which are unidentified.

William was married to Polly Salyer who was also born in Russell County, Va. in 1787, died 3 November 1867 and is buried beside her husband. Polly was a sister to William M. Salyer and deeds seem to prove that they were 2 of the 11 children of Isaiah Salyer.

William and Polly were probably married in Russell County, Va., 1808. Russell County, Va. records were lost to a fire 1853. Isaiah Salyer sold most of his land in Russell County, Va. in 1800 and moved his family to the Cumberland River section of Knox County, Kentucky where he was given a grant for 150 acres. His land was located on the north side of the river below Ashers Ford. For some unknown reason Isaiah returned to Russell County with all of his children in 1807, he purchased land and remained in Russell County until he died in December 1818.

William and Polly Howard lived on Cumberland River in Knox County, Ky., in the same area as the Howard brothers and old James Howard, Senr. and also close to old David Arnett and Garnett Jackson whose wife was Nancy another daughter of Isaiah Salyer. William can not be located on tax list in Knox County after 1811. Because of the missing Floyd County lists there is no way to know exactly when our Howards actually moved to Floyd County. Some were there as early as 1813. This William Howard is not to be mistaken with the William Herd (Hurd,Hord) who was also on the Knox County tax lists and can be followed later on the lists of Clay Co., Ky.

The first deed found concerning this William Howard is in Floyd County Kentucky Deed Book C, p. 64.
29 September 1826 Adam Gearheart of Floyd County sold a tract of land on Trace Fork of Licking River, beginning 18 poles above the mouth of Trace Fork, to William Howard of Floyd County. In 1849 William and Mary Howard sold land to John Allen. The deed was made 27 January 1849 but not recorded until 25 July 1853. Floyd County Deed Book F., p. 392. It was proved by Green, one of the witnesses to the deed.

Floyd County Deed Book F, p. 378: Another deed made also on 27 January 1849 from William Howard to Thomas L. Howard. Thomas was a son of the Howard who changed his name to Lovely.

In 1838, William and Polly Howard were living on Quicksand in a section which was set off to Breathitt County in 1840. William Howard's Will made in April 1866 and entered for probate at the March Term of Court has been re-recorded and can be found in Breathitt County, 13 August 1888. In the Will he named all of his sons except Benjamin who died in 1856. His son John was also deceased but he is mentioned in connection with the bequest which was made to his only child Idres, daughter of John and Nancy Allen Howard.
