Post Script from Margarett:

DANIEL BOYETT
I have found Daniels middle initial as W. and B. He also went by the name Dan. Daniel Boyett born March 1853, in Arkansas. Death date from his headstone is 1904. In the 1860 Census The family was in Columbia County Arkansas in Georgia Township, Daniel was seven years old. Daniels headstone has he was born in 1845. All the Census records has he was born in 1853. I heard that he was of Indian descent and/or that he was of Mexican descent. I cannot prove or disprove any of that. He had two daughters that looked like they had Indian Heritage. I was told they may have been Choctaw. His father was William C. Boyett, and his mother was Ann (maybe Maury or Murry). Between 1850 and the 1860 census Ann must have died and Gatsy Jane ______, is with the family on the 1860 census.
