Well, 1850 & 1860 Census family was in Bienville, Lousiana, and the Bienville Parish Photo HAD a phone, no longer there, usgenwebsites.org/BienvilleLA/rr.htm
but there is some biography there the photo no longer visible was taken c1860; Robert and Rispey owned 80 acres (it says) near his mother in Copiah Co, MS
There's some other information included
I used the google search term <robert womack, bienville, louisiana> and a number of websites were presented
