Searching for an obit for Francis Marion Lewis b. feb. 10, 1882. He was 16 years old and was playing a fiddle at a dance when a man named SOUTHERLAND cut cut his throat killing him at the age of 16. I don't have the month and day of death, just the year 1898. I'd sure like to get a copy of it or find out where I can obtain the obit. does anyone know where I might find this obit? The young man was my gg-uncle and he lived in Redstar,Madison CO,AR. and is supposedly buried in New Home or New Hope Cemetery near Redstar , Madison CO.AR.. any help appreciated w/this brickwall! thanks, cheryl in texas

All I know about Red Star is that it is now a Historic area and has been surveyed as such. Looked it up at Uof A Library and could find no more. Maybe some one that lives in Madison Co. (hint here folks) can help you, I am in Washington Co. I am sorry that I could find no more.
