Research Note: Son of Deborah Huffman and William Ireland, husband of Mary Haddock, daughter of Chloe Albritton and Zachariah Haddock. Mary Haddock married, Oct. 25, 1846, to John Ireland in Barry Co., MO. Isaac Crow, J. P., married them. They made their home near Cassville, the county seat of Barry Co., MO, where they built up a fine farm. John was killed by Federal troops at his home in 1862. Mary remained on the farm and reared her children. - Cassville Democrat, April 13, 1907 - Military History of Barry County: John Ireland was called up at the hour of midnight, at his home 1 3/4 miles out on the Roaring River road and shot to death. - Darla Marbut reported: We were always told John Ireland was killed during the Civil War by bushwhackers. It was said he was hiding in a cave near or on what is now Roaring River State Park. There is an old road leading into the northeast end of the park. The dirt road is still in existence today and is Farm Road 1135. This road would have been near the area where John Ireland and Amos Horner lived. The story went that John Ireland was hiding with Amos Horner in the cave. They would come home at night to check on their families. Upon returning one evening John Ireland was killed in front of his family by bushwhackers. His young son, John Christopher Ireland who was 12 years old at the time, ran to Amos Horner's house and warned him that bushwhackers had killed his father. Amos was able to escape. Fredalene Cooper Horner, author of "A Horner Legacy" page 95, gave the name of the man hiding with John Ireland. She relates that Amos Horner joined the Union Army because of this incident. He joined and was a Private in Co. E. Reg't. 2nd Ark Cav. on Sept. 15, 1863. Fredalene Cooper Horner also indicates bushwhackers killed John Ireland. - Back of Stone | Photos BCG and HS Online Newspapers Phyllis Long Family History Darla Ball Marbut |

She came to this county with her parents when ten years of age and settled 74 years ago on what is now known as the Will Lewis farm on White River.

| JORDAN, Maude (TRIM) | Apr. 17, 1867 Cassville, Barry Co., MO |
Nov. 6, 1940 Reynolds Hosp., Neosho, Newton Co., MO |
Research Note: Her death certificate reads that her father was John Trim, born TN, and that her mother was Louisa Place, born TN. She was widowed. W. L. Price, Neosho, MO, was the informant. Ira Nickle says that he thinks that Maud Jordan's death certificate is incorrect. It was reported her father was John Trim and her mother was Louisa Place. The January 20, 1917 issue of the Democrat has John Trim's death date as January 20, 1917 and that he was 46 years of age. He would have been born in 1871. Maud Trim Jordan was born on April 17, 1867 in Cassville. William Ellis Trim married Louisa Logan on February 25, 1866. I believe her father was William E. Trim unless there was another John Trim who married a Louisa Place. | Photo BCG and HS Death Certificate Donna Cooper Note Ira Nickle |
