I am really interested in your Smith of Mulberry, Franklin Co., AR. My grandmother was Emeline Smith, born in Mulberry around 1867, the daughter of Samuel and Elmira (Ellen) Smith. Known siblings of Emeline were a brother John W., born in 1870, a sister California, a sister Samantha, and a brother Simon. California seems to have died young. I don't know anything about John W. or Simon--could you connect to one of them? Emeline married William T. Howard in 1884 at Van Buren and they lived in Mulberry in the 1880s and part of the 1890s before moving to Redland, Sequoyah County, then Indian Territory (later OK) in the late 1890s. Mulberry wasn't a very big place, so there may be a connection. I know very little about Emeline's family, other than the census records for them in 1870 and 1880. I understand that her father Samuel Smith served in the Union Army in the Civil War. He was born around 1836 in Monangalia Co., western VA. I know nothing else about them.
