Henry David & Louise Howell's

Family Page

Henry David Howell married Martha Louise Forrester.

Aunt Louise gave birth to their first child Ricky Allen Howell on May 2, 1955. On October 29, 1955 Aunt Louise assisted the doctor in my birth. She said she gave me a bath and placed me in the bed with Ricky. She hurried to check on Mom and came back to check on Ricky and me. She found us sound asleep with Ricky's arm around me.

Ricky married Felicia Baker and they had three sons, David, Greg and Matthew. They now have several grandchildren but I have not seen them in several years and do not know how many they have.

Second born was Ronnie Dale Howell May 22, 1957. Ricky and Ronnie played musical instruments mainly guitar. When we gathered at their house, Ricky and Ronnie would play music for us. Ronnie tried to teach me and after about an hour his patience was stretched to the limit. Needless to say I do not have a musical bone in my body.

Ronnie married Brenda Jenkins and they have two sons, Justin and Dylan.

Third child was Sue Ann Howell born September 24, 1958. Sue loved laughter. She grew up with a love for children. All the kids loved to go to Sue's house. Even before she married and had children of her own she would gather everyone else children at her house. Sometimes Aunt Louise would tell her she had to give it a break but as soon as she could get by with it...the children were back at their house.

Sue married James Estes and they have two children, Crystal Dawn and Jaymuz Lee. Crystal Dawn married Troy Tummins and they have three sons.

The fourth child was Linda Faye Howell born July 28, 1961. Someone nicknamed Linda papoose and she grew up to hate that name. My father refused to call her anything else.

Linda married Troy Bradford and they have one son, Troy Jr. Linda married second Mark Helton and they do not have children.
