Hi, I am looking for information on my Grandfather, James Bryson Murphy. He went by a nickname of Jim Murphy. He married Mary Jane Hyatt. They lived in Newton co, Ar, for a couple of years. They married in Newton co, AR on June 30, 1894. He had a brother named Silas C. Murphey( we don't know why he put the e in Murphy, but that is what we think he did). He had a sister named Tiney Murphy, another brother, Richard Murphy. He had four Step Sisters, Vesta, Bertha Clearrenda, Alva, Jewel Murphy. Jim Murphy had eight children, John Wilburn, Royal Iverson, Margaret Elizabeth, Lula Mae, Ruby Iona, Alonzo Bresto, Beulah, and Alma Varnell Murphy. If anyone has any information on Jim Murphy and his Family, please contact me at labarb@midwest.net . Thanks, Barbara (Murphy) Murray

Hi List members -- Sorry for the multiple listings on other pages. I would like some lookups if anyone has the time and resources. I am willing to pay for your work. Please let me know if they are NOT found. I need to narrow down the search area for my vacation time. I am grouping them by county as much as possible. FALKNER COUNTY: Marriages Pearl Malone to ? Hail/Hale between 1900 - 1910 Dora Addaline Edmonson to Joseph Wesley Carlock between 1900 - 1910 (possibly 1906 - 1908) FALKNER COUNTY:Divorce Wain/Wayne Grant vs Mattie Gramble Grant after 1903 JACKSON COUNTY:Marriage Dora Addaline Edmonson to Joseph Wesley Carlock between 1900 - 1910 (possibly 1906 - 1908) LOGAN COUNTY: Marriage Dora Addaline Edmonson to Joseph Wesley Carlock between 1900 - 1910 (possibly 1906 - 1908) LOGAN COUNTY:Divorce Wain/Wayne Grant vs Mattie Gramble Grant after 1903 NEWTON COUNTY: Divorce Wain/Wayne Grant vs Mattie Gramble Grant after 1903 PULASKI COUNTY: Divorce Wain/Wayne Grant vs Mattie Gramble Grant after 1903 SEARCY COUNTY: Divorce Wain/Wayne Grant vs Mattie Gramble Grant after 1903 This is my best guess based on census records and some marriage information that I have found.

Hello: In Arkansas there is a law that protects burial places. This law specifically provides protection for graveyards. It applies to burial places with five commercial grave markers. But I believe that commercial grave markers could apply to old ones with names on them, because who's to say that they were not purchased from someone who made a living making them? It is Senate Bill 505, Act 1317 of 1995 which states: "An act to amend Arkansas code 5-39-212 regarding the unlawful fencing of cemeteries to change the definition of cemeteries, to assure greater access to authorize county judges to improve and maintain access roads leading to cemeteries and for other purposes: Subtitle: To amend the Arkansas law regarding the unlawful fencing of cemeteris, to permit greater access and to allow counties to improve cemetery access roads. BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ARKANSAS Section 1, Arkansas Code 5-39-212 is amended to read as follows: "5-39-212. Cemeteries - Access - Debris - Disturbance (a) It shall be unlawful for any person, firm, corporation, partnership or association to: (1) Construct any fence on any property in such manner as to enclose any cemetery unless suitable access by automobile to the cemetery is provided by gate or otherwise. The word "cemetery" as used in this subsection is not intended to apply to any private family burial plot which contains less than five (5) commercial grave markers. Northing in this section prohibits the placement of a fence around any cemetery for the purpose of defining boundaries or protection of grave sites: (2) Place any brush, tree tops, rubbish or other unsightly debris on any cemetery grounds, or to disturb, damage, or carry away any marker in a cemetery. (b) Any person, firm, corporation, partnership or association violating any of the provisions of this section shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction shall be fined in any sum not less than ten dollars nor more than one hundred dollars, and every day that the violation shall exist shall be a separate offense. SECTION 2: The county judges of the several county governments in Arkansas shall be authorized to improve and maintain any roads across public or private lands used or to be used for access to a cemetery. The cemetery access roads shall be constructed to a standard and nature to permit their use by automobiles. A cemetery as used in this section means any burying place for the dead, a burial plot, a graveyard, or any land, public or private, dedicated and used for the interment of human remains, which includes at least five (5) commercial grave markers. SECTION 3: All provisions of this act of general and permanent nature are amendatory to the Arkansas Code of 1987 Annotated and the Arkansas Code Revision Commission shall incorporate the same in the Code. SECTION 4: If any provisions of this act or the application thereof to any person or circumstance is held invalid, the invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications of the act which can be given effect without the invalid provisions or application, and to this end the provisions of this act are declared to be severable. SECTION 5: All laws and parts of laws in conflict with this act are hereby repealed. Approved: Jim Guy Tucker, Governor 4/14/95 To anyone who might want to contact me or who has an old JUNO e-mail address, please note my new e-mail is: jrussell44@aol.com. Hope this helps answer some questions about cemetery protection.

I am proud to announce I granted a new website for USGenWeb Project: Genealogical Events: Conferences, Seminars, Fairs, etc. http://www.genealogyshoppe.com/events.html It is designed to not only help the researcher to know of events going on in their own area or their area of research but to also allow the society/groups let their events be known. So if any of you know of an event going on that has not been posted, please email it to me. Please inform your society/group of the website so that they might post their listings. I have appreciated your patronage and support of my county websites and mailing lists and hope Genealogical Events: Conferences, Seminars, Fairs, etc. will help serve you better in your research. For Morgan Co, AL and Sevier/Howard Cos., AR I am still working on some fine details of new information to be posted. But I do have many more hours of work yet to do - it is the small things that take the longest<GR>. But hopefully your research will be helped further by these websites.

I hope to meet some of you at these events or some of the seminars I will be taking Genealogy Shoppe. Thank you and good luck in your research! Kathy

I have been out of commission lately to do lookups for you Newton County guys who are searching for your old timers. I now have my books with me and can do "work" again. So those people I turned down please try me again. I have moved in with my 93 year old mother to care for her as she has teminal cancer. I will be here for the duration. My lovely oldest son has hooked up one of his old (and I do mean old) computers for me to use so I won't have complete computer withdrawal. Marcene

My grandfather is William Franklin "frank" CHAPMAN his first wife is Sarah Jane MCENTIRE daughter of Lorenzo MCENTIRE( and understand that they are related to the SnOW, PATTON , WILEY, MCPHERSON, EDGMON.....etc) and William Franklin CHAPMAN's father is Thomas E. CHAPMAN whose second wife is Martha Jane FULTS, sister of Catherine FULTS, wife of Braxton CASEY( her mother is a MCPHERSON, too)... And they are related to CLARKs and William Franklin CHAPMAN's son Married Mary Tamar CLARK, daughter of John Franklin CLARK( son of Joshua? CLARK and Martha BROWDER?) and Louisa( Louiza) Jane Bynum( daughter of Issac BYNUM and Jane ?)...and I think perhaps the CLARK family might in some way be connected with the CLARKs which seem to be involved in the CHAPMAN lives! Ahhh...I just keep seeing this circle and know that everyone is intermarried to cousins distannt or otherwise..just like they were up in White Co. ILL before coming to ARkansas...I just wish I could figure out my Mainer/Mainor/Mayner...or how ever it is spelled!!!( first wife of Thomas E. CHAPMAN) Oh, and BRAXTON CASEY and family members are buried in a cemetery just south of Shawnee, OK. I have pictures.... oh, I have information on CASEY and FULTS from virginia Heard @ cybersea @ aol.com She sent me some information, but I am still missing some things on folks...I am collecting for my great grandfather's second wife's daughter's decendents...who are decended from FULTS) Anything you can send is appreciated.
