    Peter's second wife Mary Ann Townsend Ladd Preuett took her son Peter Duncan
    and homesteaded in Springfield, Colorado - 1900-1901.  She left Alfred with
    his father Peter.

    Peter's family lived next door to a family in Hawkins Co., Tennessee in 1840.
    The head of house was Peter Ogan - this apparently is the person Peter was
    named after.  Peter Ogan near them in 1830, Grainger Co. census.  In 1850 the
    Preuett's lived in Grainger and the Ogan's live in Hancock.  Ogan was listed in
    1850 and 1860 as a Methodist Minister.

    Census records list Peter's mothers place of birth as West Virginia.  A literal
    copy of the Preuett family Bible said, "Peter O. Preuett The son of Alfred the
    son of Huriah Preuett."  Does this mean the son of Alfred and Huriah or the son
    of Alfred who was the son of Huriah (possibly short for Zackariah).

    It is believed that Peter was a stone mason/farmer.
    Peter is listed in a "Abstract of all original Texas Land Titles" to August 31,
    1942.  He was granted 640 acres of land in Borden, Texas by the Texas & Pacific
    Railroad Company.  This land was forfeited.  Copy of this information held by
    Jan Hahn Conlin.

4 Jul 1838
West Point, Lawrence Co., Tennessee
Death:

Burial:

Brownwood, Brown, Texas
Notes:
                       Information found on 1850 Tenn. census, 1860 and 1870 Ark. and 1880 Tx.

    Some of this information was found in court records and census records of
    Lawrence Co., Tenn; and from information supplied by Charley L. McGee, 938 No.
    Warren Ave., OK City, and Bonnie (Reddell) Idsardi  of Okmulgee, Ok.
    This information was compiled during the 1980's and published in the Reddell,
    Riddle, Reddel Trail. The Trail was obtained in Pulaski, Lawrence, Tenn. Public
    Library and additional pages were supplied by Bonnie during May, 1990.

    The Reddell family lived in an area of Lawrence Co., Tennessee called West
    Point.  Martha's family left after the 1860 census and settled for a time in
    the Newton Co., Arkansas area.  They later went to Brownwood, Tx, Oklahoma and
    Colorado.

    In the early 1880's missionaries from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day
    Saints worked in the area of West Point.  Several families were baptized into
    the church and after the murder of two of the missionaries they left the area
    and moved eventually to Kelsey, Texas.  Kelsey was an area set aside as a
    gathering place for the Saints in the South.  Two of the prominent families
    that settled in the area of East Texas were the Tefteller's and the Dodd's.
    Another family was the Bryant's.  Although no connection has been discovered
    between the Kelsey group and the Reddell family it can be assumed that
    somewhere their paths must have crossed and possibly ancestors are shared.  At
    the present time this is the closest pioneer connection we have to brag about
    because we have never found as much as one member in our history.

    Sarah Lieuza Preuett and Ardovie were living in Wynnewood, OK during March,
    1900.  Frank Hildreth wrote his father during that time and said that they have
    gone to visit a brother in law of Sarah and Ardovie (18 miles) and brought back
    their niece.  The niece was 13.  No mention was made of the girls mother, but
    he said that they hadn't seen the brother-in-law for 12 years.  If Margaret had
    married and died about the time of her daughters birth and Sarah left in 1887
    when her father remarried as we know she did she would not have seen her
    brother in law for 12 years and the child would be 13.

    Brabbin. She met and married Frank Lemuel Hildreth and they had their son
    Ernest while living there.  Frank was injured when he was kicked in the head by
    a horse and she took her family back to Tx. to be near her family. We have no
    idea why she stopped in Belle Plains, Callahan Co. rather than going on to
    Brown Co., but she did.  This is where Daisy was born in 1894.

    Married name Norvell. She lived with Frank and Sarah Hildreth when she was
    a teenager.  They lived in Wynnewood, Ok. until she was in high school and then
    they moved to Perry, Ok.  She was called Dovey.  She went to high school in
    Perry and married before Frank and Sarah Preuett Hildreth moved to Colorado.
    If record are correct she was married in Perry, Ok.

    A family reunion record for the Reddell reunion held in 1979 list member of the
    Martha Emaline Reddell and Peter Ogan Pruitt as Mr and Mrs. George Norvell;
    W.E. Norvell; Charles and Joyce McGee, all from Oklahoma City, Roy and Winnie
    Norvell, from Norman, OK;  Mr and Mrs. Jossey (Cummings) Walker, Henryetta.
    This reunion was held in Okmulge, Oklahoma.
    A letter written by Frank Lemuel Hildreth to his father in 1900 showed the
    family was living in Wynnewood.  Dovey was married during 1900.  It may be that
    the family lived in Perry until high school and then moved to Wynnewood.
