    This family was enumerated #197/43 (stamped pg 507). Margaret's sister, Mary Pyeatt Hodges, was the widow of William D Hodges.

    It is said that Samuel and Margaret moved to Texas. That is not surprising considering that many of Margaret's sister also removed to Texas in the 1870s. Many were in Bell County, Texas on the 1880 census.

    These sisters and family included: Martha S Pyeatt Crawford Gregory with her husband, Phillip Gregory, and children as well as some of her children from her first marriage to Andrew B Crawford; Nancy E Pyeatt Stout widow of William Stout; Sarah A Pyeatt Gregory with her husband, George L Gregory and their family.
