Many believe Turner Arthur's father, Stephen, was the son of Jacob (based upon an inscription on Stephen's monument), and that Jacob's line to Joseph was Isaac, William, Joseph. For those who are interested, several male VICKs in the U.S. have submitted Y-DNA samples to see if we can use our Y-DNA to verify our lines to Joseph. Some of those male VICKs have a good paper trail to Joseph through his son Richard. A gentleman from Dorset, England also submitted a Y-DNA sample. The results show the descendants of Joseph do not share a recent (last 1,000 years) common ancestor with the gentleman from Dorset. We are still looking for other people from the Gloucestershire area who would be willing to be tested. We may have a different result with other VICKs there We are also looking for someone to test from the Isle of Man. We may have found one. Over the long run, we hope to be able to use Y-DNA to extend the VICK line beyond Joseph and to determine where Jospeh came to VA from. Regards, Larry

He was living in Union Two, Jackscon, Arkansas in the 1920 census. He was 81 his wife, Mary, was 67. This was his second wife. He is supposed to of moved to New Port about 1921. Family story is the he married "and indian woman and moved to New Port and ran a grocery store by the river" He was listed as a widow in 1910 in Randolph co. Arkansaw. So he had to marry after 1910.We all know how family stories go. Does any one have a city directory for either Union or New Port that might list him as owning a grocery store. His children are Elvira, Angeline, Orlando (Lan), Orville( possible called Will), William (Will or Bill), John Mathew, Rebecca, and Benjamin. Possible a daughter Ellie. I only know what happened to John Mathew. He married in Indaian to Myrtle Gore (second wife) and after her death he moved to California and he was a Methodist Minister at 21 in Indiana and a Baptist Minister 1880's and a Baptist Minister in Bo! ron, California in 1946.

HOUSE born about 1831 GA married my gg grandmother Parthenia ANDREWS 1851 Wilkes, GA. She was the daughter of Michael L. (?Latham) ANDREWS b 1797 GA and Parthenia PULLIN / PULLEN b 1805 GA. There were other HOUSE in Wilkes Co, but I can't relate George to them. Lot, Dennis and Leiston or Liston. Look at the 1850 census for Lincoln, GA and you will find the Michael L. ANDREWS household, and George HOUSE is the overseer in the household. The ANDREWS mother and daughter named Parthenia show up as Bethena and Berthena in various records. I have the old family bible of Parthenia the daughter born 1834-35 GA, and in it the ANDREWS name is shown as ANDERS, (after they went to AR) but the whole family on the 1850 census in GA is there, plus other children in the bible that died young, and deaths of some of the family are recorded. Parthenia ANDREWS (Anders) HOUSE and her husband migrated 1855-56 to eastern Arkansas, St.Francis / Monroe / and also Woodruff County area. The seem to live not far from Cotton Patch and Brinkley, AR. In 1860 in AR the ANDREWS parents are shown as Mich. ADAMS, but their son Cornelius is in the household, and other sons Charles and William are nearby, as are Parthenia HAUS and George, and sisters Mary Catherine ANDREWS who has married Andrew J. MUNNS / MUNS, and Julia Ann ANDREWS PULLEN MUNNS. Julia Ann's James PULLEN husband had died and she had remarried William MUNNS. The sister Henrietta Elizabeth also married a MUNNS, sometimes shown as MUNS. I am getting ready to order the Loose Probate Records for Julia Ann MUNNS who died Nov. 1861 (bible record) as I found her indexed in Woodruff County AR Loose Probate records. George N. or M. HOUSE / HAUS and wife Parthenia had some children .... Julia Ann Caledonia "Cally" or Calley or Callie HOUSE born before they left GA, who went to live for some reason with Parthenia's brother Charles on the 1870 census in Monroe Co AR after George had died. By then Parthenia was married to E. (Edward) HOLLEMAN / HOLMAN, who died 1873 (bible) ...and by 1880 Parthenia is married to her last husband Dillard L. COOPER. They married 1876 and in 1880 are in Brinkley, Monroe Co, AR. with extended family and some nephews also. Cally house drops off the map, but I think she married, possibly to a BRUMBLEY or BRUMLY and possibly went to live in Jackson County in 1900s where I find a possibility for her on census records. Not sure, but my mother remembers and Aunt Callie ... Mother was born 1920 Newport, jackson Co, AR. Other HOUSE children were Martha and Alex, born in AR between 1856 and 1862. I have been unable to track them. On the 1910 census in Jackson Co, AR in the McLAIN household of her daughter Clara COOPER McLAIN and husband Wm. David McLAIN, Parthenia is shown as having 8 children, 5 surviving. By her various husbands, that would be Annie who married HUNNICUT, Lizzie who married MALOY, Clara who married McLAIN, William Edward HOLLEMAN / HOLMAN who had 2 marriages--last to Rosie Betty PHILLIPS, and ?? maybe Callie as the #5 child ... or perhaps Alex. Parthenia died about 1915 (bible and AR death records) in Newport, AR but I can't find her burial site either in Monroe County brinkley area where she had long lived ... or in Walnut Grove Cemetery in Newport where the McLAIN family has many graves. Lots of info here .... hoping something clicks with someone.

There was a John W. HOLLOWAY (1873-1940), who 1st wife was Georgia WILLIAMS (1881-?). They show up on the 1900 census of Independence County (Salado Twp), with a son Andrew Jack(son) HOLLOWAY, born c. 1898. They also had a daughter Jewell HOLLOWAY, b. c. 1903. I don't know what happened to Georgia, but John remarried on 25-Dec-1908 in Jackson Co. to Grace/Gracie ROBERTS (1884-1930). Though John & Grace had 5 children of their own. I never really have found much on the 2 children from his 1st marriage. Jewell shows up on the 1920 Independence Co. census in the HH or "Will TAYLOR", listed as niece, but that is about the extent of my knowledge. Will be glad to send more lineage if this makes sense.

Hi List--I am trying to chase down a Howard family. There were in Jackson County AR on the 1870 census. The family, at that time, was Samuel, 46, NC, Elizabeth, 33, TN, James H, 16, AR, Richard, 9, AR, Darthula, 6, AR and Clementine, 3, AR. On the 1880 census they were in Faulkner County, AR. This time it was HOWARD, Shirly, 57, NC, Elizabeth, 41, TN and Clementine, 12, AR. According to the Jackson County Web Site there was a James H Howard that married a Martha Abston. I know there is a J H Howard in Jackson County on the 1880 census. The census reads HOWARD, J H, 25, AR, Mitty, 30, TN, Malta, 7, AR, Willie, 5, AR and Baby, 1 mo, AR. I think this is the family but not sure. I am also wonder if anyone has any cemetery records for an Abston family that lived in Jackson County on the 1860 census. Any help will be appreciated.
