Hi, My name is Linda Earls. My Logan Co ancestors were Stephen A. D. EARLES b. 1861 Jackson Co,AL, m Sarah E ROBBINS, Henry A Earls b. Jan1886 Paris,AR; John Wesley SHIRLEY b. Apr 25,1857 Cinncinatti, OH; Consady Carolina? LEE b.Mar 14, 1865 Ft. Smith,AR;'Clara' Hilda Clarretta Shirley b. Jan 1889 Paint Rock,AR. James Malachi HUNTER b. 1854 Decatur,Lawrence Co,AL>VanBurenCo,AR>ConwayCo> JohnsonCo>LoganCo. James' wife 1. Catharine A PEARSON b. 1854 Forsythe Co,GA>Morgan Co,AL>AR; after Catharine's death, wife 2. Alice Louisa PEARSON b. AL. (both were daughters of William Bill Pearson & Martha CHRISTENBERRY of GA>AL>AR). William 'Arthur' Hunter b. Oct 1888 AR. Richard Lee SMITH b. Mar 1848 Johnson Co,AR. Martha Jane McCLURE b. 1855 AR. Minnie Missouri SMITH b. Feb 14 1891 MO/AR? Silas Montgomery EARLS b. Jan 01 1924 Shoal Creek,AR m. Apr 10 1948 Reno,NV to Eunice Myrtle HUNTER b. 1931 Lenna,OK. All, or some, of the above family members were in Logan Co,AR from 1840 to about 1949. They also were in VA, MD,PA,KY,TN, NC,SC, GA,LA,MS,AL,AR,OK,CA. The McClure and Smith lines have been the most evasive. There are several family members searching for the Richard Lee Smith and Martha Jane McClure ancestors and siblings and descendants. Where did they marry? Where were they at from 1872 to 1896? We think Richards father was Joseph Smith b. 1818 TN m. Oct 1832 Hardeman Co,TN to Harriett Lee b. 1824? NC, who come to Roseville,Johnson Co,AR abt 1840? with the Lee brothers and families. If anyone thinks they know where we could find anything on Richard Lee Smith and Martha Jane McClure after they married in 1872 or anything on Martha's family, the McClure's, at all, I'd be more than glad to hear from you. Linda
Linda, By any chance did you live just South of East Chism Street in Paris, Arkansas in or about 1952-1954. I lived on East Chism Street and there was a girl by your name who lived just South of us. My name is Michael Gibson. Just wondered if you might happen to be the same Linda Earls. Thanks, Mike Gibson -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, July 15, 2002 1:17 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [ARLOGAN] LOGAN ANCESTORS-HUNTER/EARLS/SHIRLEY/LEE/SMITH/McCLURE/PEARSON Hi, My name is Linda Earls.
