Hello-- Looking for a location "Patten's Gap" somewhere in Arkansas. Is this familiar to anyone? The McSHAN family apparently moved here around 1882 from Honey Grove, Texas, and lived next door to "Aunt Betsy Longaker" who seems to have been a legendary character (as described in a 1965 newspaper article). Francis Littleton McSHAN was a school teacher in the 1880's. His daughter, Nancy, married Newton PETTIJOHN in Arkansas as well (c. 1899?) If anyone has any information about Patten's Gap (I'd like to find it and the county it is in) or the McShan family, I would love to hear. Thank you! Valerie

Can anyone tell me who Ballard Mullikin is? S/He was born 1894 and died 1944, being buried in Shady Grove Cemetery - Lincoln County, Arkansas. My family is from there but we don't have this person. I am thinking that this is a woman that may have married into the family and her maiden is Ballard and her first name got left off the list, does anyone know?

Hi all. I have the Persi 2000 index and would be glad to look-up articles by surname or by county and state. In other words you may request all article titles pertaining to a particular surname, or all articles pertaining to a particular county and state. Feel free to request more than one surname and/or more than one county. But limit to a total of 5 requests. I will then send you a list of all article titles that match your criteria. If there are any that catch your attention, I will be glad to make arrangements to get copies of any of the articles that you want. The Allen Co. Library in IN has all of these periodicals. If you are not familiar with Persi, you need to be. Here is a description of Persi. Let me know if I can do a look-up from the index for you. Be pre-warned, there may be a long list of matches depending on the search you request. As an example, if you ask me for any articles pertaining to a particular County, you are likely to get a lengthy lis! t of matches to look through. Don't get me wrong; I'll be glad to send the list to you, and as I mentioned, can then make arrangements to get copies of any that you feel may be helpful to you. The Periodical Source Index, or PERSI, is the largest and most widely used index of articles from genealogy and local history periodical articles in the world. PERSI began as a project of the Allen County Public Library in Ft Wayne, Indiana. Under the direction of Michael Clegg, their lofty goal was to gather all genealogical periodicals, both past and present, and index their contents. This growing database has become the largest dataset of its kind, and is renowned as a key to superior genealogical research. PERSI is a comprehensive subject index of periodical articles on genealogy and local history written in English and French (Canadian entries) since 1800. The collection also includes literature dating from the 1700s, although the collection before 1800 is less complete. PERSI is a work in progress--In the current May 2000 release, Allen County Public Library added more than 400,000 citations, bringing the total number of fully searchable records to more than 1.5 million. The index catalogs almost 5,500 different periodicals, listing every article according to locality, family (surname), and/or research method. I also offer various census look-ups and other research assistance from the Allen Co. library. They are the second largest genealogy library in the country with all census records for every state as well as tons of microfilms and published materials covering every state and county in the US. Please send any requests for look-ups directly to me at [email protected] so we don't clutter the list with responses. Include either "Persi Look-up" or Allen Co. help" in the subject line so I don't miss your email. Let me know if you'd like a look-up. Rex I do Look-ups at the Second Largest Genealogy Library in the Country. Email me directly to inquire at [email protected]

Hi, All; Does anyone have an inkling as to how imigrants to Calif would go from Siloam Spgs area to Independence MO in 1857? I am wanting to trace my G/parents route. Does anyone have a map older than 1903? And can you email it? I know where Ft SMith and Ft Gibson are, but where was the other fort--Ft Meyers (?) in the triangle? Also, are there lists for counties as well as message boards? Essentially, Benton, Washington, and Randolph and Independence? Thanks, Win in MN ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO! Juno offers FREE or PREMIUM Internet access for less! Join Juno today!
