Lynn, It's very possible that Jeanette is not subscribed to ARBRADLE. Her message was posted to the Bradley County message board, and that is how it came through to the ARBRADLE list. Best thing to do for message board posts is to access the post and reply there. In this case, go to http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.arkansas.counties.bradley/3358/mb.ashx and post your reply. Hopefully Jeanette has selected the option to be notified as soon as someone replies to her message, and she will quickly see your response. I am sure she will be very interested in these details about her ancestor! --Melissa Quoting Lynn Groves <lgroves@ipa.net>: > > >> Jeanette, >> >> Jonathan Murrell did marry in Bradley County.
