Surnames: Williams/Higgins/Tripplett/Merle Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/jV.2ADE/253 Message Board Post: I have a Henry Williams that is found on the 1920 census for Marianna, AR, living with a Chinese family, the Sunn family. I've learned that he changed his name to Henry Williams and that his parents were dead before he was grown. From the census he was born around 1900 in Lee county, AR. He moved with the Chinese family to St. Louis, was a bartender, lived on Lafayette St. He was an uncle to Cleola Higgins Anderson Clarke. He was Catholic and died somewhere around late 50's early 60's. His sister, Pearl, was Clea's mother and died at age 20 when Clea was only 2. I'm stumped trying to find out what Henry and Pearl's parents name was. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I've been told a variety of possible surnames for Henry before he changed his name to Williams but can't prove anything.

Susan, I've just returned from Lee County and you are correct, the marriage records offer no info other than the names and ages of the bride and groom other than the justice of the peace or minister who performed the ceremony. There is a lady who lives in Helena (Phillips County) that is a gold mine of info for those of us looking for ancestors in the Phillips/Lee County area. Her name is Wanda Ridge. Wanda's email is WRidge @hnb.net. She is a member of the Tri-County GEnealogy Society and is usually happy to do lookups for others. Contact her and see if she can find anything for you. I have several of their books but don't happen to have access to the census you mention. Good luck and God Blesss Carolyn Martin Pace ----- Original Message ----- From: Susan Jones To: ARLEE-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Saturday, July 12, 2003 5:50 PM Subject: [ARLEE] 1900 Census Index Hi List, Is there anyone on the list who may have the 1900 Census for Arkansas or Lee County? I am trying to find an Emma MASTERSON. She would be 20 or 21 years old going by her marriage age in 1902. I would love to find where she was born. I am hoping it was Missouri. Emma was married 25 December 1902 in Marianna, Lee County, Arkansas. With my luck, the marriage books do not give place of birth or even parents names since she would be 20 or 21. The marriage book is Book F, page 355. Emma married William Mitchell JONES of Marianna. He was 27 and Emma was 23. Thanks for any help you can give. I do not need the image as I can get that from Ancestry but I would like to know County, Town, ED # and page so I can find the image.
