I too have many relatives buried at Lonoke City Cemetery. An obit I have refers to Wheat and it is interesting because there appears to be some connection between my LITTON line and the EAGLE's (don't know exactly what though). I am currently researching the LITTON, KING, SWAIM, DUGGAR, and AUTRY surnames in and around Lonoke, Pulaski, Prairie, and Conway, etc. Any of these surnames ring a bell?

I have a few questions,from my line of the WHITE's.Does anyone know of a W.R.White who owned and lived in Lonoke Co Ar in 1880.I have a Andrew Burris White b 1836 Hardin Tn,married Rachel A. Bivens in 1859 Hardin Co Tn.Andrew and family was living in Lonoke Co Ar 1880 on W R White land,I assume they were passing through on their way to Titus TX ,Andrew was there in Titus TX1900 I can't find anything between 1880 and 1900.In 1900 Andrew and Rachel had 2 grandchildren living with them,grandson,Marshall Mainard b June 1891 Arkansas and grandaughter Georgia ? Mainard b Feb 1893 in Arkansas,so I am thinking it had to be one of Andrew & Rachel's girls,do you have their children's spouses? Indian Bayou Twp is south of Pettus/Lonoke, boarded by Jefferson County Ar,in the south and lays between England and Stuttgart . The towns in Indian Bayou Twp is Coy, Blakemore, Timberlin and Hummoke.Some other land owners around him were Hicks and Daughtery's. Can you help? __________________ Joyce Morgan English

According to my sources, it is called the Eagle-Wheat Cemetery. Try to get a current Lonoke County map. Look for Bevis Rd. on the west side of the county as you move toward Pulaski County. It should be right there. Lonoke Cemetery has only been called Lonoke as far as I know. I have relatives buried there.

Hi Jack, it is going to take a little longer to get the info for you. Went to the doc today and I have Shingles. Sorry, but I will get it sooner or later. He said that this would last about 3 weeks.

Hi Sue, My ancestor's sister married a Bell and lived in Lonoke. Her name was Mary Ann Elizabeth Tanner and her husband's name was Joseph C. Bell of Mississippi. She was only 18 when she died. Her sister Amanda Carolina Tanner also married a William F. Bell in Marshall Co MS and they ended up in Pope Co AR. He was the son Thomas and Elizabeth Bell (who may have been a widow Lang). Finally, a third sister Prudence Rosanna Catherine Tanner m. a Samuel Bell Kirk in Lonoke. His parents were George Kirk and Frances R. Bell. I'm sure all these Bells must be related.

I have a 3rd grt grandmother, Nancy Brown Wall Bell buried in Lonoke in Mt Carmel Methodist Cemetery. Her son is also there Dr.James Flack Bell so I have wondered if there is a connection between her and any of the Wall families there. We know she was the dau. of Clement K. Wall who died in Marshall co Miss. but she is said to have had 9 bros. We know their names and as yet don`t see a connection to Lonoke Co. Ark.. Just wanted some input if anyone is interested. She was born in Tn. and raised her family in Somerville Fayette Co. Tn. Thanks Sue; in Al.

There is a Wheatley between Forrest City and Brinkley. On the map it looks like it is in the corner of Monroe, Lee and Francis counties.

Is anyone living near Lonoke that would be willing to make copies of a probate file for me. I have tried ordering this from the court house but received the wrong information. I need copies of all information that would be found in the probate packet. I will gladly reimburse for all expenses. I'm seeking a probate record for J. A. Fly circa 1885. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Jack Fly Bakersfield, CA

It is about 200 pages of family history, stories, photographs, and statistics on ancestors and about 900 descendants [with index].

Thank you for the inquiries. For Joyce; my White line is through my paternal grandmother Nora Elmina WHITE SAMPSON. The Whites came from NY and traveled to Washington State and back to Oklahoma and Texas. I'm sure there are some also in Arkansas, but I haven't made the connection yet! Virginia; my PROCTOR line starts with my g-grandmother also on the paternal side. Her name is Mary Ellen PROCTOR SAMPSON. Her family comes from Virgina and westward to Bowie County Texas. This is my site on rootsweb; http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=1817305 Look in the index and follow back from either Nora White or Mary Proctor to find ancestors. Research Surnames: SAMPSON, HIGGS, WHITE, GRIFFIN, LUMPKIN, PROCTOR, SMITH, NICKLES from areas NY., MS, NC, AR, OK, TX, GA.
