Note. I believe Martha is Sharlota's dau., not William's.
Noted events in his life were:
1. Census in 1850 in Western District, Scott, VA. 2 Three Booher households are close neighbors in the 1850 census:
Maryann Booher, 58, was living with son Samuel, farmer, 28; Julia, 21; William, farmer, 22; and John A., farmer, 17. Maryann's real estate was worth $520, and $280 each for Samuel, William, and John A. Everyone was born in Virginia except Julia in Tennessee.
On the next page is Eli Booher, farmer, 30, with wife Mahala, 28; Lydia E. 10; daughter Olly, 5; Margaret A., 2; and Samuel M., 2. Eli, Mahala and Lydia were born in Tennessee, the others in Virginia. Since Eli has not real estate value, he is likely farming the land of one of his neighbors: Carey Cox, 50, and his wife Mary; or Lawrence Snapp, 44, and his wife Eliza J. One might be his father-in-law?
Near Eli is Adam Booher, farmer, 26, with wife Elizabeth, 22; Mary J., 2; and Eliza A., 7 months. Elizabeth was born in the Tennessee, the others in Virginia. Adam's real estate is worth $600.
William married Letitia Whitaker about 1852. (Letitia Whitaker was born about 1826 and died in 1881.)
William next married Sharlota about 1889. (Sharlota was born in Oct 1844 in , , VA.)
