From aunt Martha Matilda Fowle's journal, his name was Samuel Richardson Fowle after his grandfather, born on this date and called Sam. His mother died Dec 13; her nickname was Brent so assume that is where his name came from later.

From merged duplicate memorial: This info is from a cemetery survey compiled in 1940 by the Historical Records Survey of North Carolina located in the Wake County Family Records Collection, State Archives.
