"Jerry" Rhineheart was born 16 May 1873 and died 29 Mar 1929. Maud Mae died 14 Sep 1967. They are buried in Hickory Grove Cemetery, Logan County, AR. Children of Maud Mae and Jerry Rhineheart: 1.)

Mary Meredith YARBROUGH, born October 24, 1888 in Logan County, AR, married James F. BUTLER, and died October 08, 1986 in Fort Worth, TX. Had one child; William James "Bill" Butler. On March 12, 1888, while the family lived in Indian Territory near the town of Muldrow, William "Bill" Yarbrough was shot to death and Texana was injured by three men who rode up their house on horseback. He had recently had a quarrel with two of the men, Sam and John Massey over a cattle deal. Suspect, John Massey was the husband of Bill and Texanna Yarbrough's fourteen year old daughter, Louisa Elizabeth. The Massey brothers were tried for murder in the Federal Courthouse at Fort Smith, AR. The trial was judged by a jury but presided over by Judge Roy Parker. Both men were sentenced to 6 years in the AR State Penitentiary. Seven months after her husband's death, Texanna Yarbrough gave birth to a baby girl, Mary Meredith, whom she named for her late husband. She moved her children back to AR where she was granted homestead property in Logan County, on March 2, 1896. She died August 24, 1933 in Fort Worth, Tarrant County, TX and is buried there in the Mt. Olivet Cemetery. I did some research on the death and trial following of William Meredith Yarbrough and have recently added it to my website - it could be of importance as there are several names on the trial surname list that have ties to Logan County. http://loeta.net/yarbroughmurdertrial.htm I have quite a bit of information on this family, given to me by family members. So I am not requesting information but am including it since some of these people have connections to Logan County and it fits in with the rest of the family. The only other brother I have not listed is Levi "Lee" Yarbrough, whose family remained in Johnson County (Yarbrough Mountain) and has no direct ties to Logan County. Loeta (Yarbrough) Venable
