My James F. Kidwell married Mary Jane Castleberry before 1850 in probably Giles Co.,
Tennessee. They are in the 1850 Giles Co., TN. census. By 1856 or so they migrated to
Oregon Co., Missouri. Mary Jane died between 1860 and 1865. James F. Kidwell made his
will in Feb. 1874 and one of his witnesses was Franklin Castlebery of Oregon Co.,
Missouri. His other witnesses were R.H. Worley and Daniel W. Hawkins, both of Oregon Co.,
MO.
James Kidwell died Feb. 14, 1875. His will was filed and recorded March 4, 1875.
From research of others, Mary Jane Castleberry was the daughter of
William Castleberry and Susanah (Susan) Wilson. Mary Jane did name a daughter Susan and a
son William.
