"My father seemed to want to drift west & south, after good many years & that country was becoming settled up. He with his first family moved to SW MO & settled near Greenfield. There my father's first wife died leaving him with 12 children, the oldest about fifteen."
Also per cousin Rufe...his maternal grandma's name was Martha Gentry. His maternal grandpa was Isham West. He claims they had 9 kids: his mom Martha Mahala West, Dolly, Bailey, Isham, James, John, Clarinda & D "Doc" C. (If they did have 9 kids, I'm missing a daughter).
And this is where free access to the book @ Google ends.

His dad's first wife was Jeanette Jones & together they had 7 kids we know of: Sarah "Sallie" Eliza Jane McCarty, Margery Eleanor, Mary Jane Cope, John Benly, Matilda Jennetta, Molita Ann & Nancy Elizabeth Eddleman.
