Arkansas Game & Fish Commission has a very good book called "Arkansas Outdoor Atlas". It has maps of every county in the state. It shows the Sections, Townships and Ranges. The Sections are not divided up. The book is about 11 x 17 and each county according to its size will use either one or two pages to display its map. The map shows all the county roads and even the timber access roads. It some cases it will even display (by a dot) where a dwelling is at. I purchase mine about 2 years ago and it was $18.95. I recommend calling the Arkansas Game & Fish Commission to get the details how to order the Atlas. You can purchase it from: Arkansas Game & Fish Commission Publications Sales 2 Natural Resources Drive Little Rock, Ar 72205 Ph: 501-223-6351 Hope this helps.

I also checked the 1880 and 1900 censuses and found no Meadows family listed in the township (Tisdale at that time) where the City of Rison is now located.

Hello list, It's been really quiet lately.... I just wanted to let you know a couple of things. First I am changing my email address to [email protected] I will no longer be using [email protected] or [email protected] I may have missed a few of you in my private messages, so please make note. The second thing is that I am still working on the county page eventhough I haven't added anything to it lately. It's been very busy for me, and I just haven't been able to get the records entered. I still plan to add as much information as I can, I am just not able to get it on as quickly as before. I very much appreciate all the help and support you all have given me. I couldn't have done any of it without help. I big thanks to you all. I do want to explain to those who are subscribed to the change detection feature on the Cleveland County Site, that sometimes when you get a message, I have only tweaked a page, changed the spelling somewhere, or fixed a broken link. Any time I go into the page and do ANYTHING, the change detection tells subscribers it's been changed. If I have added any information, it will be posted at the bottom of the first page with the date it was added. There has been some confusion about that and I hope this clears it up. I hope you all are dealing well with the Spring Pollen and allergies. It sure has been warm early this year. Happy hunting everyone, and have a great Spring and Summer.

David C. is .with Alfred D. Stewart family 1860 Bradley Co., Ark. says age 10 born TN. I've not located a marriage record for him, nor found them on 1870 Census.

He dies abt 1904 comes to Bell Co., Texas (as brother Alfred working on a ranch out from Rogers, Tx.) with 3 ch. m. Charlie Brown who kills himself,(he supposely followed her from Ark.); then by 1920 is married to Pete Woodard, living in Waco, Texas, then don't know what happened other than she died in Ok. abt 1933 alone living and working in a rooming house. They think she went to Ok. because she had family there.? Alfred C. b. 1875 d. 1975 Bell Co., Tx. Can't get a copy of his D.C. Yet as I'm not immediate family. 27Feb., 1878 Elizabeth "Lizzie" marries Ben Glover in Cleveland Co., Ark. Then he dies 1889, and she marries another Stewart, supposely brother to David, who was a wd. with 8 children, Then by 1900 still in Cleveland Co. she is a wd. on Census. Then about 1904 her, Paralee, dau. Ella b.1880 m. Geo. Reed, all come to Rogers. Drener's family come for a while, but go back to Cleveland Co., Ark. Jenny
