James enlisted 15 November 1814 in the Kentucky Militia and was stationed in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, from 15 November 1814 until the end of the year. According to his son, Van Buren Howey, he was detached as an orderly on the staff of Major General Andrew Jackson at the Battle of New Orleans in January 1815. That month he was promoted from sergeant to ensign and his pay increased from $11 to $20 per month. He was paid a total of $104.54 for six months’ service ending 15 May 1815.112 James and Keziah spent all their married life on a farm near Vine Grove, Hardin County, Kentucky. James died without a will. The heirs decided to sell his two 80-acre land warrants in order to settle the estate and pay off its $151.69 debt. The heirs disagreed over the choice of administrator of the estate. A suit was brought in 1863 and in September 1864 a court order named an administrator, a process which cost the estate $40. After James’ death, Keziah moved to West Point, Tippecanoe County, Indiana, to be near her children and half-brother, Thomas Marks.
