B W Padgett W M 26 Farmer NC SC SC
M A Padgett W F 17 Wife Housekeeping AR TN TN
W E Padgett W M 4mos born Feb 1880 AR NC AR
One genealogy has the last name of M A as Ragsdale. There is no documentation. This site also reports that she died in 1889, again without any documentation. This is the same year her daughter Lavina was born. I have found no record of M A's death.
There is also a marriage record for B W Padgett and one Sallie Price in August 1885. If this B W Padgett is our Burl W Padgett, that would mean that M A Ragsdale died some time before August 1885. There was one child born between 1880 and 1885, William Edward Padgett. This would mean that the mother of Martha Annie and Lavina would be this Sallie Price.

Spouse's Gender Female
Spouse's Age 18
Marriage License 1 Aug 1885 Arkansas County
In the 1900 census, Burl's ("Bear's") wife is reported as Sarah L. This appears to be Sarah L Woods, whose two daughters appears under their father's surname. They are reported as daughters, rather than stepdaughters of Burl. Because Carrie Woods is reported born in October 1885, this means Sarah's first husband died after that date or not long before.
