Hi Everyone, I've just uploaded Surnames M, N, O and P to the online "Index to Register of Passports USA 14 November 1834 to 1843" on NaturalizationRecords.com website at http://naturalizationrecords.com/ The applicants residences covered all of the USA. These passports were granted to citizens of the United States going to foreign countries. Passports were granted to those satisified the requirement that they be "entitled to receive them" Each applicant had to present evidence that they were a citizen of the USA and a description of his person: Age, Height (Stature), Forehead, Eyes, Nose, Mouth, Chin, Hair, Complexion, Face If the applicant's wife, children or servants were to accompany him, or any females under his protection, only their names and ages plus their relationship to the applicant was needed. A big thank you to volunteer transcriber Pamela G for her continued hard work on this Passport Project. As well as the surnames added today, Surnames A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H and L are online for all to use freely. You can begin your search at Surnames A at http://naturalizationrecords.com/usa/passports1834_a.shtml Let the page load, then scroll down to see the list of names. Be sure to read the intro so you know how to get the full record! Near the bottom is a menu to follow for choosing the other surname letters As always, all records on NaturalizationRecords.com are free for all to use. If you want to pass this note on to others, please do. Enjoy!

Most Genealogy Programs tell you how to make a Gedcom file. Sometimes, you can mark the items that you do or do not want to include in that Gedcom. Your manual or your help part of the program should tell you how to do it.

Van Buren Argus Crawford County, Arkanasas September 2, 1903 BIG ROUND HOUSE The Outer Walls Are Under Way While Work is Being Done in All Part of Line of Improvement >From Friday’s Daily Unless one is a frequent visitor to the new round house, that is now being built by the Iron Mountain System adjoining the new yards, but little idea can be formed of the progress being made or of the magnitude of the improvement: Yesterday afternoon the reporter accepted an invitation from D W Moore Jr., to drive down with him to view the improvements and found a small army of men employed, from the Riverside crossing to the extreme east end of the grounds. At the crossing a new concrete culvert long enough for three tracks. The walls are heavy while the arch overhead is of the same material and is supported by railroad iron. On the top of the concrete arch will be a dirt fill of 2 ½ feet and on this will be laid the cross ties and rails as on any other part of the road bed. The round house was the next point visited and this proved the busiest part of the vast work now being done. The brick work on the outer circle is well under way with 12 brick layers at work. This wall is 480 feet in length, and together with the shop, offices, engine house, the closets and oil rooms will require more than a half million brick. Fully one half of the big windows that are to furnish light and ventilation have been placed in position while the rest are ready to be placed on the sills which have been sawed from Bedford, Indiana sandstone. The turntable pit has been excavated and is ready for the balance of the structure. The table will be 71 feet long and will accommodate the largest engine made. This will be operated by steam. The foundation for the pump house, water tank, coal wharves, cinder pits, etc., are ready for superstructures. The sewerage system has been completed and every drop of waste water will be carried off as well as all of the surface water. The Company will have their own system of waterworks. At the beginning an 8 inch well was bored to a depth of 55 feet and a strong vein of water was struck. Another well, 100 feet south from the first one 10 inches in diameter the same depth, was drilled. It has been completed, and from it the water will be pumped into the tank by a large gas engine. The water has been analyzed and declared to be first-class for steam, and as the supply is inexhaustible, they have solved that problem. Contractor Naughton, who makes a specialty of this class of construction work, informed us that the plans called for the very best material throughout and not a particle of cheap construction work was permitted. The workmanship had to be first class and everything done with a view of permanency and perfectness of plans. Mr. Naughton stated that he had done a great deal of this kind of work but he felt a particular pride in this one from the fact that he knew it would be the best constructed and most modern round house in the west. Mr. Naughton informed us that in the construction of this plant he would use 50 cars of brick, 75 cars of gravel, 40 cars of sand, 20 cars of cement, 50 cars of timber, iron and miscellaneous material and 6 cars of tiling, a total of 241 cars.

Listmembers, is there a statewide listing of deaths, obits, interments, cemeteries that contains records from Crittenden, Craighead, Poinsett and MS counties, from late 1800's to early 1900's? Any information appreciated. Fran powell@closecall.com

Hi Jeri, Sorry to take so long to reply. I looked at the Cunningham pictures,and,I didn't recognize any of them. My Cunninghams migrated from VA,GA,MS,AL and then to Arkansas. My G Grandfather,Henry Clay Cunningham moved to Lawrence County between 1880-1900. Found them in Lawrence County in 1900 and 1910,then they moved to Leachville,Miss.,County. They had family living in Clay,Poinsett,Craighead. But,most of the records for my ancestors,I have found in Lawrence Co. I will check out the links you sent to see if I can find Miles Jackson. Thank you for sending them. I appreciate all suggestions!!

Hi Glenna, Do you have any Cunninghams in Lawrence Co.? I have some photos on a page of mine with unknown Cunninghams/Helms on there. Maybe you could take a look at them. go to: http://home.earthlink.net/~jerifultz/helm1.htm and scroll down to this link: http://home.earthlink.net/~jerifultz/cunningham_helms.html Let me know if you find any that you know. Have you tried Harry Vredingburgh's Poinsett Co. cemeteries? http://users.bscn.com/harryv/cemetery.htm He has to be somewhere even if it's an unmarked grave. You might try the funeral homes he has listed on there. FUNERAL HOMES Poinsett Co.- http://users.bscn.com/harryv/funeral.htm Neighboring Counties - http://users.bscn.com/harryv/fuhomes.htm Good Luck!
