Correction on the Son of Angus Ruffner. William S. Ruffner is possibly the son of Silas Ruffner, Angus Ruffner's brother. Angus Ruffner's son, William S. Ruffner was born in August of 1871, Silas Ruffner's son was born in September 1861. I'm looking for any information on the Ruffner family, and connections. Angus Ruffner - b. 17 December 1831 in Illinois - d. July 1913 - Lawrence Co., Arkansas Married 1st: Martha E. Brown b. 30 June 1838 - Tennessee - d. 22 April 1883 - They were married 30 November 1854 in Jackson Co., Arkansas. Angus Ruffner married a second time to: Sarah Janes Hughes - b. 13 November 1846 - South Carolina - d. 24 December 1907 - she is buried in the Ruffner Cemetery on the Roy Hughes Farm in Lawrence Co., Arkansas Angus and Sarah were married 13 September 1883 in Jackson Co., Arkansas. Sarah Jane Hughes Ruffner's mother was named Elizabeth W. (?) and was born in 1825 in SC/NC - she died after 1910 as she was found on that census - She was living in the Marion Twp, Lawrence Co., AR at that time with Angus Ruffner. Eliza W. was listed as Eliz. W. Huey, mother-in-law of Angus Ruffner. (Huey is the spelling on the census records) Angus was the post master at Alicia, Lawrence Co., Arkansas. from what I understand...this family was living in Swifton, Jackson Co. Arkansas which is near the town of Alicia, Lawrence Co., Arkansas. There were of Angus Ruffner's living in Jackson Co., AR also... William S. Ruffner who married Ada Harris. William S. Ruffner was born August 1861 and died 4 January 1942 in Newport (Jackson Co.? I am unfamiliar with the Arkansas towns) - William and Ada had three children; Harry, William and Paul Ruffner . If there is anyone with just "any" information on the RUFFNER's or the families of the BROWN, HUGHES & HARRIS families, please contact me. Just one name could help in my search for my family.
