Are there any World War 1 Records from Ouachita Co. available for purchase?

Bucksnort Cemetery is in Dallas county near Stoneypoint Cemetery. Doris Fletcher recently canvassed both of these cemeteries and donated them to the ARGenExchange. She says that BOTH cemeteries are now singularly referred to as Stoneypoint Cemetery as if they were combined into one. The ARGenExchange will list them as separate cemeteries to make finding your ancestors a little easier.

Wasn't this also called Bucksnort Cemetery? Jan Morris

Jeanette, Let me get stuff caught up here and I will get back to you. Microsoft had a problem with their "Hotmail" yesterday and I could not get connected to it after 4:00 yesterday afternoon so I have quite a backup of email to sort out. Thanks for the info about the cemetery. I wonder why it is called Moss Cemetery if there are none buried there.

Surnames: Graham, Langley, Mattox Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/XV.2ADI/409 Message Board Post: I am searching for Jasper Newton Graham's place of birth. According to oral family history, he was born in Plymouth, Iowa. His father was John Graham of Iowa and his mother was Elizabeth Langley of Ouachita Co., Ark. Her parents were James W. Langley and Judith Mattox, of Chidester, Ark.

I had previously mentioned on the Ouachita County message board about a Douglas Reunion last Fall. Even though most of the folks who attended were descended from Ouachita County ancestors, we included a stop at the Gulley Cemetary because some of the relatives were descended by marriage to the Gulleys. If you wish to visit the cemetary which is on International Paper property you must contact the Manager, Ron Campbell at the Fred C. Gragg Supertree Nursery, Route 2 Box 29, Bluff City AR 7l722 before you go. The telephone number is (870) 685-2562. I contacted him before posting this so he is aware that some folks might want to contact him regarding visiting the cemetary. Linnea cc: Ron Campbell, Fred C. Gragg Super Tree Nursery

Della, I contacted the Obituary Department of the Camden News in Camden AR, ll3 Madison NE, Camden AR 7l70l. Telephone 870-836-8l92. I spoke with Susan and she said that she does not have that information at the newspaper on film or microfiche. She suggested that you contact the Public Library of Camden and Ouachita County, 120 Harrison NW, Camden AR 7l701. Telephone 870-836-5083 for any Obituaries from the Camden News. It should be on microfiche. Perhaps someone living in the Camden AR area could obtain the information that you are requesting. Linnea

I remembered some discussion on the Ouachita County list about an African American family named Freeman recently - and think I remembered some questions about Mittie Freeman - so decided to forward this issue of The Electronic Genealogist to the list. It was coincidental, but Mittie Freeman's story as told in the Federal Writers' Project of 1936-38 was one of the things I found on the LOC's American Memory pages (see below). Fascinating site. Most genealogists researching in the USA are likely to find documents, photos, or other records related to their research here. TEG is a free newsletter, and I try to find the not so well known sites relevant to genealogy. This may be my best find yet - but then, it's a new newsletter. I hope to do better... :>) Enjoy. trapper John Lancaster, author of The Electronic Genealogist The New FREE Weekly Genealogy Site Review Email Letter http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~jclancaster/teg/index.html Email: mailto:jclanc@swbell.net > > Welcome to the sixth edition of The Electric Genealogist. > > Genealogy is about memory, especially the later generations of a family tree, and it is sometimes great fun to tie events of the time to our family histories. Just incidentally, in the process of researching events, we also sometimes uncover data about our families. Today's website, the Library of Congress' American Memory pages, is an excellent place to fill in some background and detail on your family's times and locations. You'll find it at: > > http://memory.loc.gov/ > > What a wonderful site for a history buff or for a genealogist! Being a bit of both, I decided to try it out on my own name first, so I typed "Lancaster" into the search slot and let it rip. Well, they listed some 500 results, which I thought was pretty exciting. But, of course, the Lancaster name is tacked all over American history - it's a common name for towns, counties, even ships. Still, I browsed a bit of it, looking at old photos from the turn of the century, documents going back into the 1700's, and so on. Fascinating. But I wanted a better test to tell you folks about. > > So I typed in "Ouachita Arkansas" (without the quotes) and started browsing. Now Ouachita county, Arkansas is where my dad - and much of his very extended family, grew up, so I was hoping to get some direct hits on that subject. > > But I got diverted. One of the first things I ran into was the Slave Narratives from the Federal Writers' Project of 1936-38. I'm not of African American heritage - though I'm sure that, like most of us, I've probably my fair share of African blood, as well as Indian, several varieties of European, etc. But these tales are fascinating. They're not particularly good stories, but they provide a feel for the times that you really can't get anywhere else - and they give it from the slaves' perspective, in their own words. Wonderful stuff. > > If you read these stories, be sure to read Mittie Freeman's story - especially her cure for "rheumatiz", using poke-berry juice and "'bout half a bottle of good whiskey" (not "old cheap corn likker"). > > But I had this column to write, so moved on back to the search list and browsed further. The first 87 items dealt largely with legal affairs of the state legislature, the US Congress, and the Journals of the Confederate Congress. A brief spate of other references, then back to legislative listings. Dull, perhaps, but valid information about the times. > > Rather than conduct another search. well, I did do a fast search on one William Moss - an ancestor who has been particularly hard for us to pin down. Lo and behold, the first item up was an act in the House for the relief of William Moss and Matthew Moss of Tennessee - right state, I'll have to check to see if it's the right person - on Tuesday, January 11, 1853. (That's just about the time that my William Moss disappeared, so perhaps he didn't get that relief.:>) > > But rather than go into more searches, I decided to check another link from the site's home page, the currently featured collection "Touring Turn-of-the-Century America".

I am researching the following surnames in the Ouachita and Nevada County Arkansas area: FLOYD, BUTLER, KIRBY (KEARBY), MOSELEY, ADAMS, CARTER, WOOD, MEADOR, WALLACE and others. Here is a little more information I am including both Nevada and Ouachita County since I have some information on most of them from both counties. Sam Rayburn Floyd b abt 1845 where unknown married Mary Butler (born Oct 18 1864) on May 4, 1885 in Ouachita County. He had been married before and had children. My grandfather Oscar Floyd was born to SR and Mary Floyd on Aug 13 1889. SR Floyd died when Oscar was a small child. Mary went on to marry Eliazer Wage then a Mr. Bratton. Mary's parents were Adam Butler and Elizabeth Jane "Betty" Kirby. Betty's father was Henry Kearby. Sam Rayburn Floyd is my stumbling block and I would love to have any information anyone might have, even a small clue. I have an 1880 Ouachita County, Liberty twp, census that shows a Samuel Floyd with family who managed the Ouachita County Poor House. The children names are similar but since I don't know his first wifes name I don't know if it is him. I have also found an Evan Floyd family with a son Samuel about the right age in the Locust Bayou Twp of the 1850 Ouachita Co census. Can't prove that either. Robert Giles Moseley born Feb 2 abt 1863 married Olivia Abbygail Adams on June 13 1885 in Nevada Co Arkansas. My grandmother Allie Myrtle Moseley Floyd was born to that union After RG Moseley's death 23 Aug 1904, Abbie married William H Parrish. Robert Giles Moseley was the son of Benjamin Giles Moseley and Francis Jane Carter. Benjamin Giles Carter was the son of Elisha Moseley and Mary Carter. Francis Jane Carter Moseley was the daughter of William John "Billy" Carter and Rebecca Meador. Olivia Abbygail "Abbie" Adams was the daughter of Theodore Franklin Adams and Nancy Jane Wood. Nancy was the daughter of Handy Wood and Nancy. Theodore was the son of Samuel E Adams (I think) and Jane C Wallace. (Census shows her to be right) Any help will be appriciated.. I have much more on most of the above lines including Bible records on the Moseleys and Carters and I will exchange what information I have.

My brick wall is the parents and siblings of John Randolph ANDERSON, b. abt. 1859, d. abt. 1896 in Boughton Twp. Nevada Co. He married M. Elizabeth (Bettie) FRISBY in 1883, and they had 2 children, James Millard and Leatha. At the time that my father, Loyce (Cable/Jack) was born in 1910, they were living in Lester, AR. It is my understanding that they lived in Ouachita Co. and in Nevada Co. most of my father's life. I have no idea where John Randolph was born. I would love to hear from anybody with information about the above-named families. I will be glad to swap info or pictures. Mary Jo Anderson Lambert
