    • They were married after a a four-year courtship. They moved to the rural home of her deceased parents, farming in partnership with her brother-in-law Dr. Gustavus Hendrick, husband of Ann Ingram. The arrangement led to a quarrel that was settled in court in December 1869, with Lon forced to buy her property for $8,100 (Henson and Parmelee, p. 267). In August, 1870, Lon and Ludie returned to San Augustine from the old Ingram farm in Sexton to help Amanda settle her husband's estate. (ibid, p. 279), moving back to Sexton after they settled Matthew's estate, and back to San Augustine once again in July 1873, when they exchanged properties with Jimmie and Mary Ingram. (ibid, p. 283).
