Today marks the last day Rootsweb mailing lists working. Tomorrow, the Rootsweb mailing lists are no more. All messages that had been posted here are saved and archived, will continue to be accessed and read. Subscription, no more Postings, no more Replies, no more BUT ! Successor lists are here, but at another place The successor list for this list is: https://groups.io/g/Arkansas-Genealogy sorry, no county list for this one, yet but the list owner may create "subgroup" for the county alone, within this state list. Go to the site and "join this group". This is easy step. David Samuelsen, subscriber

Subgroup will be created once there are 25 posts related to Carroll, not when there are too few interesting in just the county. There are hashtags helping you identify your interests. There have been no posts to this list since September 2018 until my post today. Not worth creating a single county list. Groups.io is much more effective. Try it.

We would like to announce the forming of a new organization the Cumberland Gap Tennessee Genealogy and History Group, A.K.A (CGTGHG) which propose to record and preserve. The goal of the group is to promote Genealogy with the recording of Pioneerâs and their descendantâs while also preserving and recording Cumberland Gapâs history. The CGTGHG hopeâs the Nation will get behind the group by submitting pioneerâs names, stories, pictures and Genealogies to be preserved for future generations to come. The CGTGHG will be having a newsletter 4 times a year and will have memberships available on different levels more on that to come.

Dear Sir, Madam, Please assist me with the following. I am from Holland and have an interest in WW 2 history. I do research about US servicemen who were killed in WW 2 and are/were buried in the US Military Cemetery in Holland (and Belgium), near where I live. I am searching in particular a picture from: Ira C. McBee, KIA 28th September 1944, born in 1944.He was re-buried at IOOF Cemetery, Eureka Springs, Arkansas (Findagrave information). Can you please help me? Perhaps there was a notice about his death in 1944 in a local newspaper or there was a picture in a yearbook. Thank you in advance, kind regards from Holland, Antoine

Mr. McBee is not listed in the book 1942-1945, "Carroll County Men with the Colors" published by O. Klute Braswell. The book is a compilation of Berryville's Star Progress newspaper clippings of WWII soldiers from Carroll Co. Even though Ira was living in Eureka Springs in the 1940 census with his widowed mother and sister and working in a florist shop, he join the military in GA. He was in Eureka Springs in the 1930 census when his father was still alive. His parents were married in Carroll Co., AR in 1905, but their children were born in KS. -----Original Message----- From: anthony nouens <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Sent: Tue, Nov 19, 2013 1:32 pm Subject: [ARCARROL] WW2/McBee Dear Sir, Madam, Please assist me with the following.

CCHS has added 1930 era school census records indices to our website. We have indexed these records for 34 Carroll County, AR schools, mostly the eastern [Green Forest District] portion of the county. Here is the link to CCHS http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~arcchs/. We will be adding new school census to the website periodically. Fleta CCHS webmaser

The answer I find at http://www.stevemorse.org/census/faq2030.htm. What are the CCC Camps that you show on the 1940 utility? During the Great Depression the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was started to provide gainful employment for millions of Americans and a way to increase habitat rehabilitation throughout the United States. The 1940 Census gave separate ED numbers, within their County prefixes, to the CCC camps. It appears that the camps were distributed throughout the United States and may have had in excess of 300,000 individuals. These CCC EDs are unique to the 1940 Census, and apparently have no corresponding 1930 ED numbers. To make this conversion utility work, we had to assign them an arbitrary ED number in 1930. So we chose 0-0. (In some cases the 1940 CCC EDs did show a corresponding 1930 ED number, but we ignored that information in our transcriptions since it had no meaning.) In transcribing CCC camp locations, we found a number that showed no population on the definitions film. The camp could have been closed, but in that case the ED could have been shown as "Void". A possible explanation for this is in the 1940 Enumerator's Handbook where paragraph 327 states that CCC enrollees be counted "at their usual place of residence, and not at the camp in which enrolled, unless they have no other usual place of residence" while employees other than enrollees in a CCC camp would be counted if they slept at the camp. Thus it's possible that enrollees could be double counted on the 1940 census, or not counted at all because of this determination by the enumerator. Over 1300 CCC camps are contained in our tables. But the actual name of the camp was not transcribed for any of them, just the generic name of CCC. See the following for further information about this very popular program. http://www.ccclegacy.org/ -----Original Message----- From: William G.

I wasn't born until '47, so there were no more CC Camps. I have my dad's newsletters from the Berryville CC Camp (Champlain Champion) in September and December of 1940 and January 1941, that I have donated to the CCHS, so I know he was there then. However, based on what you are all saying, he may not have been there in April 1940 when the census was conducted.

Hello, I was wondering how old you were back when they had the CC Camps? All those CC Camps were housing for workers. The men were taken to where there was work to be done. They were paid to work and the CC Camps were where they lived while working. Not every one could get work close to home. It was World War II that got this country out of the Great Depresion.

My father wound up over 600 miles from home, central North Carolina from South Central Florida, and there was a camp just fifteen miles of our house. In the Museum to the CCC now part of that site the above was postulated but there was no reasoning for that rule. I never did find out why the government would spend all that money on transportation except it benefited mostly the RailRoad as their main transportation source.
