There is a lot of information out showing different mothers for different children. It should be noted that Batt first appears in the 1850 US Census at age 19 with his wife Rhoda who was 16, living in Polk County, Tennessee. No children are listed. Ten years later, in the 1860 US Census he and Rhoda are living in the Fulton township of Polk County, Arkansas. He is now listed as being 30 while she is 24. If that is true, she would have been about 14 in 1850.

Bat and Cynthia lived in Indian Territory. Records with the US Court in Ft. Smith, Arkansas show that Bat and his wife Cynthia were arrested for the crime of possessing alcohol in the Indian Territories on more than one occasion.

Bat is buried in the Allen Cemetery where his oldest sibling, Nancy Guinn Martin-Lucas, is also buried. She died in 1898. It is believed he was living with her family at the time if his death.

Yes, I know there is an issue with the dates of some of the kid's births when compared to the believed mothers. It's a mess and I'm working on it.
