Hi List members -- Sorry for the multiple listings on other pages. I would like some lookups if anyone has the time and resources. I am willing to pay for your work. Please let me know if they are NOT found. I need to narrow down the search area for my vacation time. I am grouping them by county as much as possible. CONWAY COUNTY: Marriages Pearl Malone to ? Hail/Hale between 1900 - 1910 Dora Addaline Edmonson to Joseph Wesley Carlock between 1900 - 1910 (possibly 1906 - 1908) CONWAY COUNTY:Divorce Wain/Wayne Grant vs Mattie Gramble Grant after 1903 YELL COUNTY:Census Index for 1910 Ira Grant and Hazel Grant living with Allie Grant YELL COUNTY:Census Index for 1920 Ira Grant and Hazel Grant living with Allie Grant (?) I would think she would have remarried by now. YELL COUNTY:Marriage Ira(?) Grant to ? around 1928 Hazel Grant to ? around 1930 Dora Addaline Edmonson to Joseph Wesley Carlock between 1900 - 1910 (possibly 1906 - 1908) PERRY COUNTY: Pearl Malone to ? Hail/Hale between 1900 - 1910 Dora Addaline Edmonson to Joseph Wesley Carlock between 1900 - 1910 (possibly 1906 - 1908) POPE COUNTY:Divorce Wain/Wayne Grant vs Mattie Gramble Grant after 1903 This is my best guess based on census records and some marriage information that I have found. Thank you very much for any help and time you contribute to my search. If these resources do not exist please let me know so that I do not waste my time or yours requesting something that can't be done. yvonne ____________________________ Colorado Springs, Colorado reply to henson@rmi.net web page: http://www.rmi.net/~henson Names I am researching: BRENT(S), GRANT, EDMON(D)SON, HENSON, MCARTHUR ____________________________________________________________________ Get your own FREE, personal Netscape WebMail account today at http://webmail.netscape.com.

I got this from another list and decided to pass it on. In the photo section, NY people should take a look at the unidentified photos there. If they don't all load on the first try, click back and then click on the photo icon again.

Does anyone have a copy of the book OUR WILLIAMS FAMILY by POLLY CHURCH? I need some help in trying to figure out a family line in the book. Please Email me privately. Thanks, Phyllis

Is there anyone on the list who would be willing to lookup some newspaper articles for me from 1991? My father, John Maulding who lived in Center Ridge died 6-7-1991. He was missing for 2 days and then found dead on the 3rd day. He had an accident in his truck and had gone down into a heavily wooded area and that is why he could not be found. I would pay for the costs of copying and mailing or maybe they could be sent over the Net by jpg. Thanks, Phyllis

Can anyone give me a birthdate for Etta Stobaugh who died 7-20-1963 and is buried in Elmwood Cemetery? Thanks, Phyllis

Update for Conway County Page http://www.rootsweb.com/~arconway/ I'm in the process of updating this page... I'm still working on the 1860 Census records, need a volunteer to proofread. AGS has adopted the project for pre 1914 Deaths and Births, let me know what you think about continuing to post the Conway County pre 1914 deaths and births to the page Send in your family reunions and cemetery decorations if you don't see them posted to the events page http://www.rootsweb.com/~arconway/events.htm I'm redesigning the surnames page, to make it faster loading, the page is huge now, so be patient, but please continue to send in your requests. Anyone with old photos they have scanned of Conway County, please submit, I'm designing a page for those, it will be linked from another server, as the rootsweb server doesn't have enough space for photos...

Hello list members it has been about 2 months since my last post of this message. I am sure some of you are getting tired of reading it:) First, I apologize for the length of this request. This is ALL the information that I have. If anyone has any suggestions or recognizes any of these names, I would deeply appreciate any/all help in solving this puzzle. Dora Adaline GRANT was rumored to be a Cherokee Indian. I have no proof of this or any evidence to suggest that this is true, only family stories. I do not know where she was born I may know who her parents were. The evidence I have of her life is two marriage licenses one for 1890(Jackson County) and one for 1897(Conway County) and the 1900(Conway County), 1910(Yell County), 1920(Lonoke County) census records. She was born 1870 - 1875, died 1942. (I have been unable to obtain a death certificate or social security record. I have her obituary.) She was married 3 times and had children by all three husbands. All her children are deceased. She lived all her life in AR according to the census records. The names I have are as follows: Dora Adaline GRANT (1st marriage), M MALONE, (children) Pearl b ~1893 married a HAIL/HALE, Myrtle b ~1892 married W F PAINE/PAYNE (2nd marriage), Noah Strong EDMON(D)SON, (children) Houston Grandville b ~1898 married Mabel MCARTHUR, Charlie b~1903 married Rosie Katherine SENTELL (3rd marriage), Joseph Wesley CARLOCK, (children) Ruby b ~1909 married 1st GRIMES, 2nd FURR, 3rd EANES, Hurbert/Herbert b ~1910 married Edna TEMPI ELGIN. Ruby's children are as follows: Ruby Jean GRIMES, Margaret FURR, Russell EANES, Carolyn EANES. She had two brothers, WAIN b ~1880 and JAMES b ~1884 GRANT. I found them listed in 1900 census for Welborn township, Conway County. They were enumerated with POLLY SITTERLEY b ~1858, listed as mother and head of house. She is listed as 42 years old, widowed, mother of 6 children with 3 living. I have a marriage license for Jim (Jas) GRANT to MRS. ALLIE WINTON August 7, 1903, Conway County. He is listed as 21 years living in Cardon Bottom in Yell County. She is listed as 25 same place. 2nd marriage for James GRANT to Josephine Vaughn Verden in Pope/Yell County. James died in 1926 buried in Brearly cemetery in Yell County. His death certificate lists his name as James H GRANT, born in Searcy County. Father's name is Andrew (born Mississippi?) and mother's maiden name is unknown. I have a marriage license for Wain (Wayne) GRANT to MATTIE GRAMBLE February 14, 1903, Conway County. He is listed as 23 years living in Atkins in Pope County. She is listed as 29 same place. James GRANT listed as head of household in the 1910 census for Wilson Township, Yell County. He is listed as 25 years old, divorced and married for 6 years. (The years were crossed out.) Also listed in this house is Polly SITTERLEY, mother, 50 years old, widowed, mother of 6 children with 3 living. And Myrtle MALONE, niece, 18 and single. Are any of these names familiar to anyone? There must be some descendents of these people living in Central Arkansas. Please put me in touch with some of them. Does anyone recognize the SITTERLEY name? Thank you for taking the time to read my post and ANY suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi Tracy To find your gr-grandfather's Land Records. Go to www.glorecords.blm.gov/logon/logon.asp --- click on "Search" & go from there. You can print out the information right from the computer. Homestead records have more information than purchase records. You can also order a certified copy from this webpage. Happy hunting! Peg Peggy Pike Gordon San Angelo, TX pgordon7@gte.net ............................................ Hello Everyone, I need some help about Land Records. I would like to purchase a copy of the contract of my Great Grandfather's land purchase in Conway County. Would anyone have any idea how I might be able to go about this? Any help is appreciated!
