Samuel was married to Bertha Phelps in Butler cty Ky in 1857they had several children one was Fannie Sowders who married Philip Hocker.My interest is in the parents of Samuel. I was told he was born in Va. father Henry he had three brothers. Jacob, Isaac, and J.W. during the civil war Isaac and Jacob fought for the north and Samuel and J.W. changed the spelling of Souders to Sowders and had no more contact with the other two. Does anyone known anything about Samuel or his family?
