Oop's, I forgot the caboose!
The last child of Matthew and Nancy J. Kuykendall was Absolum, born August 25, 1814 in Franklin Co., TN. Died January 1, 1900 in San Antonio, Bexar Co., TX. Absolum was married first, to Nancy Bean who died 1853. Absolum and Nancy had 10 children. His second marriage was to Druzilla Dragoon in Michigian in 1855. They had 5 children.
I have read that he 'Joined the Mormans' and moved to Illinois in in 1850. I find this hard to accept because his last son, Absolum Russell,by Nancy Dean was born [11/17/1852] in Bexar Co., TX. From all I have found he was in Michigian by 1855 where he married Druzilla Dragoon and where they had their first child, Druzilla Amanda, April 12, 1856. Their second child, Matthew Johnson, was born in Wisconsin on April 7, 1858. Their other three children, James, David Edmund and George Richardson, were all born in Dow City, Iowa between 1860 and 1865. He well may have 'joined the Mormans and moved to Illinois' but I have not found evidence that he ever lived in the state of Illinois nor that he ever joined the Mormans.
Best regards, James
