I also found them on the poll tax, but the courthouse could not find those records. Unfortunately, I found out about the Agri-Census for 1890 to late, to get a copy of it. But I met a really nice lady at the library in Lonoke and she offered to get me a copy and send it to me At the Regional Library I found them on the personal property list for 1887-1891. I now know how many animals they had and their value. Which I thought was really great, it gives me a clearer picture of what their life was like back then. With these I was able to narrow down his father's death, ( GG Grandfather) sometime between 1892 and 1893. It was a good trip and I really enjoyed the scenery and the country side of Lonoke, it seemed like a really nice and friendly community to live in. Judy
