I took your advice and went to familysearch. I only got two "hits" on the particular John W. Curry of my interest: the 1880 census listing and his marriage to Jane Frazier - both of which I already had. I agree that some of those other Currys listed in the area may be descendants of John W. Curry, but I have no way to contact them, and, anyway, I am hesitant to contact someone unless they indicate a willingness to be contacted. What really baffles me is that Jane C. (Frazier) Curry has a very prominent grave marker in the Magnolia City Cemetery, but apparently there is no marker for John W. Curry (and who I know died after 1880). Thanks for your interest and reply.

Curry (m. Jane C. Frazier) If you go to familysearch.org you will find several John W Curry's in and around Magnolia,Columbia County, Arkansas. One of John Curry's sons married a first cousin to me, she was a Dodson daughter of Martin Dodson son of Joseph P and Jane Adeline Sutton Dodson. I think she is still alive and living in a nursing home in Magnolia
