Story told on Ancesty Family Trees by samloupe1.
"I have been told by a descendant while Gabriel and his wife Martha were living in Hempstead County, Arkansas that Martha died. He took the children back to Montgomery County, Arkansas to stay with family and went back to Hempstead County to build a little fence around her grave. Gabriel had a heart attach and died while building the fence. The deaths were very close together and their children were all very young."
