• Notes

  Charles was a doctor. He had followed his father to Maysville, Kentucky, where he met and married Mary Hord. He did not follow his father to Indiana, instead moving his family to St. Louis. In 1838/39 Charles lived at 11 Morgan, St. Louis. In 1840, his addresses were: 146 N. Third, and Sixth and Washington. This part of the city was home to many of the wealthy and powerful. At the time of Charles' death, St. Louis was gripped in a flu epidemic. It is possible that he died as a result of being infected by his patients.
