Thanks for offering your help. I spent a few days at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City last winter. I found the book by Sue Clark in the Library. She had gone to the State Land Office to collect her research. I have a copy of Index to the Arkansas General Land Office 1820 -1907: Volume Five, Covering the Counties of Washington, Crawford and Sebastian. Reuben's application for a land patent (maybe a homestead) is not listed. Another Crawford County researcher told me that the AR State Land Office had kept better records. Maybe Clark listed all patent applications and not just those that were registered as deeds. She noted that not everything on her list was a Land Patent, but I did not find what the other records might have been. My family moved to Lafayette Twp. in Crawford County by 1870. This twp. was not part of the land that Crawford County annexed abt 1890. When I reviewed the copies of the deeds and land surverys I found at the Family History Library, it looks like the Hills were living near Reuben's son's property in Sections 3 and 10. Abraham bought his property from Wm and Mary Fuller who bought their property from John R and Wm Meadors. J. R.'s land was just south of Fuller's land. From reviewing the Rose Family story, it looks like the there were two Hill families--John Speed Hill who m. Miriam Rose in KY and Uncle Perry who lived east if Belmont and south of Graphic. When living in Abe's house and near him, the story seems to say that they were living on leased land. When you get the book on Franklin County, please look to see if there were any Corder families who bought land patents in Franklin County. The deed for land in Crawford County, a mariage record between Margaret Corder and EB Hasset and the census records are the only records I've found in Franklin Co., AR.

JoRetta, Try this link....you can search for any land patent. It will ask for your zip code just to track areas utilizing their recoreds. It will give you various infor as listed in the posted e-mail as well as show you a copy of the land grant that you can save to a file I believe once you give your zip code and the home page comes up, SEARCH is at the top of their page....it's easy to overlook and I've spent a lot of time reading all the blogs on the page and gotten frustrated before I realized this. http://www.glorecords.blm.gov/Logon/Logon-Form.asp You can search by the complete name or by the last name only (this one is required). You can also narrow you search by selecting the state the grant is in. Hope this helps.

By 1880 Reuben and his wife were living with Abe and his family. Any ideas?

Hi, everyone. I've just re-joined this list. My surnames are CORDER RUSH THOMAS STEELE SHOCKEY. Now for a pressing question! As I begin to write up my research, I continue to find missing research. Perhaps someone on this list can help. I found a land grant in Section 11 for Reuben Corder in 1874 listed in "The Original Land Grants for Crawford County" by Sue Clark. However, the actual parcel was not listed. The parcel was also not listed in Crawford County Deeds. There was no asterisk next to the listing, indicating it was not a land warrant. I am correct in assuming R Corder probably applied for a homestead then lost the homestead? My only clue as to where this land might have been is in a narrative written for the Crawford Co. Historical Society on the origins of the Rose Family. Abe Corder owned the place where Grace Jones Hill was raised. ... Abe Corder had ... a house about 100 yards down [sic] from where Grace Hill lived. It stood on the east side of the old stage road. From what I can tell, County Rd 183 turns into Cain Rd. Belmont Drive goes east off of this road then turns and continues north-south along the western boundary of Section 11.then turns east again just a bit south of the southern boundary of Section 11. Is the north-south portion of this road that goes along the edge of Section 11 the Old Stage Coach Route? If not, then can someone tell me where the route was for the old stage coach? Abe Corder owned land that straddled the boundaries of Secs 3 and 10. So the description of the house just might be a house his father Rueben Corder built while working at getting his homestead. By 1880 Reuben and his wife were living with Abe and his family. Any ideas?

The list of dates is an oversimplification. West Virginia, for example, WAS Viriginia until its secession in the Civil War, so my ancestors, and I had several, who were born in western Virginia in the 1700s and early 1800s were born in Virginia, not WV, and I find their records in the old Montgomery, Rockingham, Greenbriar, Monoghelia Virginia archives; many of these records can only be found in the Virginia state archives where they belong. Again, not all of PA in 1752-1786 was originally part of Virginia. I research extensively in VA, MD, PA, TN, and what is now WV, and from 45 years of experience I think these oversimplified dates could lead a new researcher to waste a lot of time and energy! Few things in genealogy are this simple. I wish they were!

They almost all walked, except the few who had horses...Seriously, given the substantial Kentucky migration to Crawford, you might do well to be aware of a possible link back to Dr. Thomas Walker, an early explorer-settler of Eastern KY in its days as a VA county...Google will fish up something for you on Walker, et al... Duncan the Librarian Yarmouth Port, MA

I am looking for the gravesite of JOHN RATLIFF B. 1750 VA. D. 1833 CRAWFORD COUNTY, ARK. Thank you so much for your reply, but a lovely lady has already emailed me with a listing of that cemetery....unfortunately there was not a John Ratliff buried there. Two of his descendents were there....Delilah Ratliff Steward and Agness Ratliff Steward. If you happen to run across any information on John Ratliff, I would greatly appreciate your keeping me in mind. Thanks again.
