ON EZEKIEL:
The Civil War between the states became a harsh reality to family when Ezekiel enlisted in the Confederate Army in at the age of 39.
He left his wife and children to manage the farm.
The care of a six-day-old son, Henderson, added to the already heavy workload.
The eldest daughter, Wada, at 18, was already married.
The other girls: Evaline, Flora Ann, Susan Ann, Christina and Caroline ranged in age from 14 to 2 respectively.
The eldest son Daniel, age 16, was also to serve in the war.
Richard, age 12 escaped the direct horrors of the war.
When an exhausted Ezekiel returned home recovering from wounds, he fell by the doorstep and had to be helped into the house.
The story goes that Jane killed a chicken and made soup every day to help nurse him back to health.
He survived, and the couple added two more sons to their family, Linville and John Reason.
