Noah and Laura's second son, Calaway, married Elizabeth 'Bet' CLEMENT in McNairy county on 25 Jan 1859. Elizabeth was the daughter of James and Elizabeth CLEMENT also of McNairy county. A few years later, Elizabeth's younger sister Sarah would marry Cal's younger brother Noah Zachariah. Elizabeth and Sarah are thought to be part Cherokee Indian. However, no documentation of this has been found. (I'm still looking)

Cal, like his father was a McNairy county farmer. And also like his father raised a large family. All kids born in McNairy co, Tn

A. Franklin Pierce b: 1860
B. Eudora 'Dora' Washington b: 1861
C. William 'Willie' Robert King b: 1863
D. Francis Marion b: 1867
E. James Noah b: Ca 1870
F. Ledia Margaret 'Maggie' b: 1874
G. Calaway Buckannon Jr 'Buck' b: 1876
H. Martha Ann Elizabeth 'Mattie' b: 1879
I. Ezra (possibly a nickname for a son above)

It isn't known exactly when Cal and Bet left Tennessee. But, between 1881 and 1886, Cal moved his family west. They stopped in north-east Arkansas along Crowleys Ridge and settled near his brother Zach's farm south of Beech Grove.
