David's wife Mary "Polly" Carlin

David Strickland was born about 1759 and served most of the Revolutionary War with units from Connecticut, Massachusetts and New York. He was living in the Missouri Territory in 1819 when he petitioned for a pension, also receiving a land grant in Miller Co. Arkansas which was later adjusted to become Red River Co. TX where he died in 1825 on his farm in the community of Pecan Point located north of Clarksville, Texas in Red River County. His farm has been searched repeatedly for a trace of David Strickland's grave, but the Red River has flooded and changed courses many times since 1825 and there is little hope of ever finding his grave. A memorial stone and SAR marker was placed in the Clarksville Cemetery, Red, River County on 26 September, 2009.
