Ruby, Pardon me for butting in here but I caught your letter in the list and thought I would at least try to get some information I've been looking for. My great grandfather ELIAS MORGAN WITTER was born in (maybe) AR in 1852. He died May 11, 1906 in Madison Co AR and buried in the KILGORE Cemetery. [the township of WITTER, Madison Co, AR was named after him]. My problem is I have no further information on his parents or ancestors or if he was truly born in AR. I am hoping if I can find some information on his death certificate it would mention his birthplace and his parents. Can you help with this or send me to the place where I might get the information. Thanks for your consideration. "VOLUNTEERS ARE A BLESSING FROM GOD."

Try looking in cemetery enumerations in Arkansas. Sometimes small cemeteries are listed. The library in Fayetteville, Arkansas has a huge amount of information on micro. Maybe your local library is part of the system where they can get access for you. Good luck. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, September 10, 2000 1:00 PM Subject: Fwd: Re: [ARMADISO-L] Death records > Ruby, > Pardon me for butting in here but I caught your letter in the list and > thought I would at least try to get some information I've been looking for. > > My great grandfather ELIAS MORGAN WITTER was born in (maybe) AR in 1852. > He died May 11, 1906 in Madison Co AR and buried in the KILGORE Cemetery. > [the township of WITTER, Madison Co, AR was named after him].
