And thanks for your help. His name was Samuel Homer Towers.
Not sure
about a birth date but believe it was about 1859- 1863. Is there an URL for
the 1870 census of Martin County available or is it in Web site? I must
have
overlooked it.

Using the search engine on the Martin Co website, I didn't find any Tower
family.
The 1900 census is sound-indexed. You should be able to find him at home
(wherever that is) in that census. It's available at the National Archives
or through the Family History Library system.
Good hunting!
