• Notes

  Pryor Hurst was married to Sarah Jane Fowler, daughter of Richard and Rachel. James Matthew Fowler was married to Mary Elizabeth Hurst, sister of Pryor and daughter of Simpson and Betsy Simmons Hurst. One of the family tales that has been passed down says that Pryor was captured by the rebels during the war and left in a cave for dead. He became dehydrated and had nothing to eat. He lost weight and was able to slip out of the leather thongs and walk home. Source: Linda Crawford, Dallas County, Missouri, 2001, Mills on Mill Creek at Celt Missouri in northeast Dallas County.
