They're listed in tax rolls and I found reference that William AILLS was a Pioneer Arkansas Territory. William is listed in Johnson Co. AR.Census Records Aills, William Johnson, AR 1837 Aills, William Johnson, AR 1838 In the 1840 census, William's wife, Sarah Aills lives in Sparda and is listed as the head of household. There is one male under 5 and one male 40-50. There is one female under 5, 1 female 5-10 and 1 female 20-30. The people just seemed to have disappeared. Can anyone give me suggestions on how to search in Johnson Co., for this information. I feel lost. I live in Tulsa OK so it would be fairly easy to make the trip but I don't know where to start. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you, Sandra Zenger
