Sue, What type of info would you have on the Bishops of Chickasawba township (Blytheville). My g,g,g grandfather William Bishop moved from Scott Co. MO. to Chickasawba township in 1844. When he moved there, there were only 4 white families and about 100 indians. He was for a time, the Constable for that section and also served as a deputy under Sheriff Bowen. His oldest son, Andrew Jackson Bishop was one of the areas first photographers, he taught school in Blytheville for 4 years, was a charter member and one of the founders of Chickasawba Lodge#134, he also owned a wagon and blacksmith shop in Blytheville and, he also enumerated the 1880 US Fed. census for Mississippi Co. Ark..Although my family was among the earliest settlers of Blytheville, I know very little of it's history. I do have an old photo of my g,g,g uncle at his store and in the photograph with his is W.H. Ogelsby (doctor who delivered my great grandfather and for whom my great grandfather was named after. William Hanson Ogelsby Bishop) and in the photo also is H.T.Blythe,(postmaster). Perhaps your Fields and Huey's the Bishops. I would like some history of the area if you have more. Also, My g,g,g,grandfathers older brother, Jackson Bishop, was of the earliest settlers of Osceola, moving there in 1836. My best to you...
