If you go to ancestry.com and find the Social number you are looking for, there is a place to the left that you can click on and it generates a letter to print out and send. I have used it several times to get copies - works well and SS numbers are free to look up. No membership fees needed.

Here is the addy to my family cemetery, if you go there I think you can find your way to the other cemeteries. ftp://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/ar/grant/cemetery/jonesjordan.txt

Hi folks, I am still searching for Joseph C Fruen/Fruin/Frain. Joseph was born about 1836 in England, possibly Kent. There is a Joseph FRUIN baptized at St John's in Thanet in 1836. Could be him. The age is right. On the 1860 census of Monroe Co AR, Joseph C FRAIN is listed as born in London England. Was he born there or had he moved there from another location prior to his move to USA. I find Joseph listed as FRUIN on some records and FRUEN on others. Joseph married Cordelia DICKERSON, a widow with three children in 1861 in Monroe Co AR. The children: Josephine, Evaline and Henry Calvin. They are still in Monroe in 1870, according to the census. By 1880, they had moved to Yell Co AR. They had one son in 1872 named William Edward. Evaline and Calvin had left home. Josephine was at home with her mother, though she had been married about 1874 to William Walt. My guess is that Josephine was there to comfort her mother, since Joseph died in 1880. Cordelia acquired land through federal land grants, as the widow of Joseph C Fruin. I have requested these records from the National Archives. They haven't arrived as yet. I am hoping there will be something in the records on Joseph, since it appears that he had begun the acquistion process. My greatest problem is finding info on parents and siblings. So far, nothing has surfaced on either. I don't have a clue how to look for Joseph in England, as I have no data on those parents. Any suggestions?

Hi List members, I want to thank those of you who answered my help request. I did find the maps of the cemeteries that I was looking for on the usgenweb site under the county sections. Just go to the county sections and click on cemeteries for the name of the cemetery and then click on the name and you will be able to look at the maps of each location of the particular cemetery you are looking for. I found mine in Montgomery and Yell counties. Again, thank you all so much. Linda L.

Ray Mack, I am Bill King of Houston, and a user of the AGS-L@rootsweb.com list. My KING & WITHERINGTON ancestors were in Ouachita/Calhoun County, AR by 1847 and farmed down by the early community of Artesian in South Calhoun County. Other connecting families in Calhoun County being researched are: McDONALD, GRANT & PARKER..... By the way, there is a Jim O. King that I correspond with, but I do not believe that he is a member of this list. Jim King lives in Montgomery, AL, his email address: JasOKing@aol.com Would like to have any info that you might have for me, Ray.

http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~icenogle/soundex.htm The URL above will take you to a photo of a soundex card. There is also a short introduction to soundex on this page. The link to Heritage Quest seems to need updating, so will correct that soon... Hope the Soundex info helps.

Try this site, www.askjeeves.com then type in question soundex. You will recieve the info you are looking for on how to compute the code for your family name. Also there is a site mentioned for a free soundex program so your computer can figure it all out. Good luck, Diane

Hi Tina, I didn't have a form when I sent for my father's SS card copy, just wrote all the info I could and they sent me the copy. I didn't have the number so I wrote his full name last address, parents and wife's names and that's about it. You could call your local SS office and maybe you could get a form from them or they could tell you how to get one if you prefer. Charlotte A.

Michael I wish, I could be of more help to you . You need to go to the library and ask for a book on genealogical that show the code for the soundex . You match the letters from the name to numbers to get the code. The first letter of the name is also used with the numbers. example: Davenport.....D151 With the number from your name that you are searching for you can cut right through all the census record and go straight to your names to search. Saves lots of time. Not all the records have soundex yet, but large genealogy library will have more. Sometimes they can be ordered. If I had the code with me I would send it to you. You might ask for somebody to send it to you. ________________________________________________________________ YOU'RE PAYING TOO MUCH FOR THE INTERNET! Juno now offers FREE Internet Access!

Hi everyone, I found a place with all the cemeteries in Arkansas and there are maps that we can zoom in on and locate exact location of a particular cemetery. However, since then I have completely forgotten where that was and really need to locate it again. Does anyone know of this site and how to get into it? I would really appreciate the assistance. I thought it was on the usgenweb site but cannot locate it for some reason. Thanks to all Linda L.

Mr. (Jim?) King: Today while transferring my files to FTM I ran across some information that may pertain to you. I remember your name but do not really remember what list you were on.....I think you are on this one as the info is about Arkansas ancestors. I think I remember your name is Jim King. I did not save the info you were transmitting as it did not pertain to my ancestors. If anyone knows the Mr. Jim King or the correct (?) King who uses this list, please let me or him know. After all, we may be related. Who knows how valuable something unrecognized may be. About a year ago I just happen to look at a penny in my pocket and found that it was a proof coin from many years back, one of the last from the San Francisco mint. Please respond on this list, AGS-L@rootsweb.com. Ray Mack Camarillo, CA
