From Salt Lake City Family History Library 929.273 Z85r Zumwalt Family Vol. 1:79 (1964), Paul L. Reed: " Samuel P. Zumwalt, the eldest son of Andrew and Susanna Coonce Zumwalt was born 22 July 1810 in St. Charles County, MO. As a young man he went to Martinsburg Township, Pike County, IL. As a pioneer settler he took a land grant (#13455) on 5 May 1836. He built a cabin for his bride Lydia Buckaloo to whom he was married 7 July of the same year. Lydia was a daughter of Eliab Buckaloo of Pleasant Hill.
"Later the same year he was able to buy additional land adjacent to his first grant.
"Here he and Lydia lived with their growing family until 1847, when they sold their land grant of over 200 acres to Andrew, Samuel's father. Samuel P.'s father, then 68, came to live close to bother children and grandchildren.
"Lydia died in 1853 leaving seven children--four boys and three girls--aged one to fifteen. Samuel P. needed help with his brood and on 6 Aug 1854 he married Mrs. Margaret Aiken. Five children--three girls and two boys--were born of this union.
"Samuel P. left Pike County, IL. Just when and where he went is obscure. At times the family is known to have lived near Carthage, Hancock, Illinois; at Colma, IL and across the river in MO at various times.
