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
