Wade Hampton, when twenty years old, served in the Indian War, known in history as the Black Hawk War.
In 1834 Wade Hampton moved from Kentucky to Alabama, where he married and where his daughter, Mary, was born.
Afterwards the Hamptons, filled with the pioneer spirit, moved to the new State of Arkansas, where they acquired a cotton plantation. His daughter, Mary, attended school at the convent of Little Rock Arkansas, where the planters of that section sent their daughters to be educated.
On finishing her education, Miss Hampton was united in Marriage to Stephen Taylor Howell of Tennessee, who was a young planter on a neighboring plantation.
After passing through the trials and vicissitudes of the civil war, Mr. and Mrs. Howell, with her widowed mother, Mrs. Wade Hampton, came to California by the way of the Isthmus of Panama. They resided first in San Francisco, and later in Sonoma county, finally settling in Merced county, where the family has since made its home.
