I have a newspaper article 8-15-1957 written by Mrs. Mary McGraw Stephenson. It was part of a book written for a family reunion. Talks of their life in Tyro arkansas. Names include--Joyeux Collins, (Mary's grandfather), Frank, Alma, John, lizzie, Tom, Emma, Zack, Mattie, Lee, Reba and Bob. All are Aunts or Cousins of the writer. She makes mention of Uncle Jerry and Aunt Jennie Johnson and Lula Johnson. This would be Jane Flanagan and JS Johnson my gg grandparents. Article mentions many of the people that lived at Tyro. If this family connects with you please contact me. I was raised in Lincoln County, Arkansas. My direct lines are Lee, Johnson, Leonard, and Ratterree. If any of the Collins families from Lincoln would like a copy of this newpaper article, contant me direct and I will mail one to you. Shirley
