Would anyone on this list have access to burials around the Marion township area? Looking for burial of Reuben GILLESPIE who died during the 1860's. Thanks Jackie

Dear ListMembers - Effective immediately, I am turning over ARRANDOL and ARLAWREN RootsWeb discussion list management duties to Kathleen Burnett - email: kathleenburnett@earthlink.net. This past week, my Mother required emergency heart surgery and I am travelling out of state. Also, during the past few months, my regular job, and other personal commitments, have left me with less time available to manage these 2 lists. ARRANDOL in particular is extremely active and deserves a ListMgr who can devote the appropriate amount of time to meet your needs. I will continue to assist Kathleen in maintaining the Randolph County GenWeb site, and, of course, I will always be a listmember of ARRANDOL and ARLAWREN. As I've been out of pocket this past week, I will make sure that any backlogged msgs/requests you've submitted will be taken care of shortly. I have thoroughly enjoyed managing ARRANDOL and ARLAWREN the past few years. This is one of the best communities in all of RootsWeb !! Thank you so much for your patience, consideration, and cooperation during my tenure. More importantly, thanks to all of you for your valuable family history & research efforts and contributions. And how about a warm welcome for your new ListMom - Kathleen !!! :-D Sincerely, ///Steve Looney///

To Carol and friend: I have been to the courthouse there and done research, they were very nice and helpful. If I was looking for a city directory...I would go to their local library. Good luck! Carolyn in NLR, AR

This is from a friend who lives in Alabama, but has connections in Arkansas, Lawrence & Randolph Counties. Could someone help her with her questions? I have no idea about where to look for city directories in Walnut Ridge area. Thanks, Carol Thompson twistere@pokynet.com E-mail me & I'll forward your reply. Got a question. When I get to Arkansas I want to go to Walnut Ridge. My father's birth certificate states that his father, Wade Anderson Templeton, was living in Walnut Ridge at the time of my father's birth. I know Wade and Lottie Lou Claunch Templeton were separated at the time; my dad was born in Jonesboro. They later divorced and remarried in 1911 in Paragould and then divorced again! My question is, where would I go in Walnut Ridge to find info on him; City Directory, etc. He either owned a drug store in Walnut Ridge or was a pharmacist in a drug store there. I am not sure now whether he died in Walnut Ridge or Pocahontas. The undertaker who buried him was in Pocahontas, however. He wrote my dad wanting to be reimbursed for the burial. Thanks for any info.

sorry - B.B. Odom & Sintha Jane Smith- 25 Apr 1850, Lawrence Co., Ark.

I am making a proposal of a work exchange. I have access to all the federal census from 1790-1930, all states.

GILLESPIE (with various spellings - Galaspy, Gilaspy, Gilaspie, etc) who died during the 1860's. If you are interested, please contact me off-list. Thanks Jackie
