"By 1845, Samuel was thirty-nine years old and had established himself in his new community and was serving as Justice of the Peace in Coosa County. In that capacity, he officiated at his son James's wedding on January 14. (See below). The next official record of Samuel is the 1850 census of Coosa County. The name is now spelled "Pruett" and the entry lists Samuel (age 45) and his son James B. Pruett (age 22). Both are listed as farmers. Others in Samuel's household are listed as wife Mary (43), Robert (18), Wiley (11), Samuel (6) and Amanda Bishop (20). Family researchers have not, thus far, determined who Amanda was and what position she occupied in Samuel's household."
