Hi,
Appe Womack was actually Eppy Womack, and his age was greatly exaggerated.
He was closer to 82, not 102. He was in the 1850 Census of Buchanan Co, MO
with James Womack and his family. James was likely Eppy's son.
Eppy Womack was the son of Thomas Womack and Sarah Owen (
https://sites.google.com/site/womackgen/family/abr/abr/tho), and was
mentioned in his father's will in Rowan Co, NC. Eppy was in various
records of Rowan, including tax lists. He and several of his brothers
moved to Warren Co, KY where they were in records including tax lists.
Allen Womack, who was probably the son of Eppy's older brother Abraham
Womack, also moved from Warren Co, KY to Missouri, eventually settling in
Buchanan Co, MO.
Eppy was apparently married to James Womack's mother (name unknown), and
after she died, he married the widow Elizaberth Pinkerton, who I think was
also from Rowan Co, NC (James Pinkerton married Elizabeth Dancy in 1800).
Elizabeth Pinkerton already had children when she married Eppy. One of
these was Eleanor Pinketerton, who married John Farrar in 1830 in Perry Co,
MO. Elinor (Pinkerton) Farrar left a will in 1841 in Perry Co, MO naming
her children, plus "my desire is that my half brother Joseph Wamack shall
have my grey horse".
In 1830, when Joseph Womack was 6, he was indentured as an apprentice in
Perry Co, MO by John Pinkerton (Perry Co, MO guardian bonds). I don't know
where Eppy Womack was at that time. Perhaps he had a disability and could
not care for Joseph,
