Hi, Darren! Glad to see you're still digging around in your family history <g> Can hardly wait to see your latest Patterson find. Wasn't aware that Robert Patterson (d 1896 m Catherine ___) had come all the way to AR, gone back to NC, served with the CSA there, and then come all the way back to AR. At least 3 of his sons apparently hung around NC 'til 1868 when they all moved to MCAR. I'm wondering if you're researching Robert Fulton Patterson Sr b Yancy Co 1848, joined Co E 66th NC Infantry NC aged 16, m/1 Huldah Willis, m/2 Mary Jane Rea, came to MCAR with parents James W & Levicy Lucinds (Roberts) Patterson (son of Robert & Catherine ___) 1868. Anyway, I'm anxious to see what you've come up with. I'll be at the Ancestor Fair with the MCAR Genealogical Society on Saturday. Wouldn't miss it. If memory serves me, we've only missed one of these Fairs (the very first). Every one of them (except the year the temperatures were way, way beyond human abilities to withstand) has been a blast!! Lots of people, lots of information, lots of research materials, lots of conversation, lots of sales, and lots of purchases. Very rewarding all the way around <BG> Mysty [email protected] ********************************************** ----- Original Message ----- From: "Darren Hellwege" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, June 04, 2003 2:02 PM Subject: [ARMar] Bramble Bush? > > Any of y'all (Mysty?) know if they're still publishing the Bramble Bush? I'm fixing to send a check down that way, but the index online is only up to '99 and I was afraid they stopped doing it. Or, maybe you just have other things to do than to type all that stuff into a computer all day! > > Beautiful day here in MO, snuck out of the office for a bit to haunt the Historical Society library here, think I may have found the Robert F. Patterson from North Carolina who came out to Marion County before the War, returned to NC and served the CSA then returned to Arkansas. I believe this is the grandfather of my Great-Grandmother, Huldah Minerva Patterson, who married Thomas Peter Ott and lived in Yellville. I'll pass along what I found when I get a minute's peace if anyone's interested. > List has been kinda slow lately, I was afraid my email had messed up and kicked me out of the group...I get entirely too much email. > > Anyone headed to the fair this weekend? Have fun! > > Darren
