Notes

Note N1006From the Cleburne County Historical Journal-Spring 1987

All of Thomas Higdon's children were born in Benton County, Tennessee, near Camden, Tennessee. Most of them died in Arkansas. His daughter,Sarah Matilda, came to Higden at the age of six. The wagon train bringing the Higdon family came to the area about 1874.

It appears that Mary Higdon Cody's gravestone lists her birthdate as 1847. The 1870 Census lists her as 25 years old on 4 Aug 1870. If that is correct, she would have been born in 1845. Tom McLehaney 2007
