The following are writings from Ora Faye Howell Baldwin in 1974.
My notes are in italics. Spelling is what she wrote, some words have evolved over time.
QUARLES
David Quarles had two brothers Ben and John
One sister Elizabeth Lizzie, married a man named Huggins
One son Abner, daughters Salley married a Demming
David buried at Lebnon Church in Dawson County
Weather conditions did not permit burying wife in Dawson County
Wife buried at the Spern Cemetery, northeast of Howell Farm. Lizzie buried there at her side.
I remember going to Lizzie’s funeral, we had moved to Georgia from Texas at the time Lizzie Huggins brother, John Quarles
is buried beside his sister in the Spern Cemetery. There is no monument in the Shern Cemetery only rocks that mark the graves.
All we know bout grandfather John Howell’s family is he had one sister Elizabeth that came to Georgia. She married John
Covington. They lived in Dawson County GA and one daughter named Mahaley and one son Joshia (Josh).
