On 29 Nov 1794 in Davidson County, Tennessee, Howel Tatum sold 40 acres of land to James Howel for ten cents ($0.10). The land was described as being in Davidson County "on the North side of Cumberland River; beginning at a hickory and sugar tree John Thomas's corner on Birdwell's South boundary running from thence South 56 poles to an ash on Stull's North boundary, thence East 85 and 7/10 poles to a stake, thence North 56 poles to a stake on Caldwell's line, thence with his line West to the beginning." The witness to the deed was Robert Searcy, who swore oath and proved the deed during the July Sessions of 1811.

NOTE: James Howell purchased 40 acres on 29 Nov 1794 in Davidson County, Tennessee, from Howel Tatum for ten cents ($0.10), which is nearly the exact same descriptions. Where did the additional 10 acres come from?

The 1805 tax list for Warren County, Kentucky, shows James Howel paying taxes on 16 Aug 1805. He is described as having no land and was taxed on 1 white male over 21 (presumably himself) and 1 horse.
NOTE: This is likely a double tax, as he also appears in Logan County, Kentucky during their 1805 tax list. Logan and Warren were neighboring counties, immediately north of Middle Tennessee (Davidson, Lincoln, Rutherford Counties, etc.). This tax list may also connect James Howell to Joseph Howel.

On 22 Aug 1805 in Warren County, Kentucky, James Howell and Thos. Lacy signed a note for $35.29 to [given name missing] Douglass Senior in the value of beef, pork or cotton, on or before the 1st day of December next. The witness was William Bracklin.
On 6 Feb 1806 in Warren County, Kentucky, the debt appears to have been unpaid and an alias capias was issued by the court. The defendants could not be located within the bailiwick by deputy sheriff Giles Cooke.
On 1 May 1806 in Warren County, Kentucky, another alias capias was issued by the court to Thomas Lacy, William R. Payne and James Howell, with John Roebuck and Thomas Duncan as securities.
On 16 Dec 1806 in Warren County, Kentucky, the court ordered a writ of capias against Thomas Lacy and Joseph Howell for a debt of $600 owed to Daniel Skaggs, assignee of William R. Payne.
On 5 May 1807 in Warren County, Kentucky, Joseph Howell came into court regarding the case of Daniel Skaggs against Thomas Lacy et al. The record explains that Joseph Howell offered himself for whatever fine or imprisonment was due to Thomas Lacy as a result of the case.
NOTE: The fact that Joseph Howell offers himself up for fines or imprisonment strongly leads to the belief that Thomas Lacy is likely his son-in-law. It's also interesting how Joseph Howell replaced James Howell for these suits.

The witnesses were Daniel Hay, William Mason, Thomas Porter, William Porter and William C. Porter. The deed was proven on 14 Mar 1808 by Daniel Hay; on 21 Apr 1808 by William Porter; and 16 May 1808 by William Mason.
On the same day and place, John Young sold 2 1/2 acres of land to James Howell for $48 Kentucky money. The property was described as being in Logan County on the waters of Little Muddy Creek, "beginning at white oaks corner of said Howell running West 5 poles to a stake, thence South 79 poles to some oaks and a persimmon buck, thence East 5 poles to said Howells corner, thence West with said Howells line 79 poles to the beginning." The witnesses and dates of proving are the same.
NOTE: They appear to have simply swapped neighboring tracts of land for the same value. When did James Howell acquire 24 acres of land?

On 11 Oct 1814 in Warren County, Kentucky, James Howell Jur. was married to Aggea/Aggy Cason, the daughter of George Cason. The bondsman to the marriage license was James Mitchell.
NOTE: Some sources online state James Howell was the son of a Samuel Howell, however the marriage record makes it rather clear James Howell was a "junior." There is also zero mention of any Samuel Howell in Warren County, Kentucky.

On 21 Apr 1823 in Simpson County, Kentucky, Charles Waddle brought a suit against Barrett Henderson, William R. Payne et al. The court summoned "to take the deposition of James Howell, Davidson County Tennessee, and in like manner to take the several depositions of Reese Howell of Lincoln County Tennessee and of Delila Robertson Rutherford County Tennessee and of Isaac Allen [blank] County State of Illinois."
Later on 25 July 1823, the case was dismissed and the defendants recovered their costs from the defendant.
NOTE: Charles Waddle was previously involved in court suits with Joseph Howell against Edward Douglas, in Warren County, Kentucky.
This document helps link the David, James and Joseph Howell found in Warren County, Kentucky to Reese Howell of Lincoln County, Tennessee. David Howell and Joseph Howell both would also later end up in Lincoln or Rutherford Counties, Tennessee.
Who are Delilah Robertson and Isaac Allen? Isaac Allen may be a familial connection through the Gowen family.
