One of their sons, John, was a sergeant in the U.S. Army and stationed in Illinois where, in 1800, he signed on to accompany Captains Meriwether Lewis and William Clark on the famous Lewis and Clark Expedition to the Pacific Ocean. John kept the rosters and orderly books, and also wrote an account of the Expedition as they journeyed. He was often in command of the detachment when Lewis and Clark were absent. The Expedition took more than two years and was a resounding success. Following his return, John visited his parents in Bow, and then returned to Missouri where he bought a considerable amount of land and established a plantation in the New Madrid district along the Mississippi River in the extreme southeast part of Missouri (Bundy, 171-173).
