  	The date of the divorce is from the Heycuz website, which cites among other sources the Hickman County website of a Leonard McCown. This site could not be located, but apparently held some Hickman County Chancery Court records, 1877-1882. The individual report on Heycuz went on to say that he left Martha J., but also said that his wives "could not live with him, as he did not seem to know water was for cleanliness."
