• Notes

  Mary Helen Haines notes: Howard's name appears on both of Jackson McFarland's 320 acre surveys-the first one done in 1839, and the second one done in 1841. He doesn't seem to have any land of his own: the land he and Anna are living on in 1850 is only worth $100. Considering he was in Texas as early as 1839, it is strange he never sought out a land claim of his own. There is a Howard Etheridge who did have very large land certificates in Bowie County in 1844. Maybe he had the certificates and sold them. Have found no marriage record, but it must have occurred here in Fannin County around 1840. Howard's name appears on the same list of Texas Rangers as James, Jackson, and Albert McFarland. He also served in the same companies as his McFarland brother-in-laws in the Civil War.
