I believe what I am looking for is the location of Brinkley Farm. I KNOW it is in Mississippi County Arkansas and Believe it to be near Manilla. Of course, I could be wrong on the Manila part. My Mother's family lived there about 1917 or so. I am given to understand it was some sort of work farm for criminals? Or law breakers of some sort. I would love any information I can get on this place...I had three aunts die while living in that area and have recently been told that is where they are buried. Thanks. Sorry this is SO long. Laura
