By 1838 he was taxed in Mooney Township, Phillips County, where he appears on the Tax List, and where in 1840 he is enumerated on the Federal Census. On the same census page, we see his probable brother on line 17 "Posy Tackett 100042-30002", living next to his probable brother-in-law on line 18 "William L Hardin 10001-0001" who had married Cindila Tackett on 23 Apr 1835 in Phillips County. |
