An account given by Ruth Parker Dalton in the book "Wayne Co., TN, 1817-1995 History & Families" states that, "in 1878, the Talley family and the Pierce family, traveled by wagon, pulled by oxen, back to Wayne County, Tennessee, to visit their relatives for about a month, then returned to their homes in Arkansas and never returned to Wayne County again".
