David and wife, Mary Susan (FLETCHER) FITZGIBBON arrived in AR (unknown if Yell or Perry Co) about 1866/7 from GA. I found David on the 1867 tax list of Yell Co. and he then appears on the 1870 census of Perry County with wife Mary and six of their 7 children. Susan appears on the 1880 Perry Co census, but David is gone. By 1900 Mary is gone from both Perry & Yell County census'. When and where did David and Susan die? Where are they buried? Children were: Mary Catherine, md Julius Oscar BEAM 07 Feb 1867 in Cherokee Co., GA; James F. md Ann E. FEW 10 Oct 1878 in Yell Co; Elizabeth md Columbus A ABERNATHY 09 Feb 1874 in Yell Co. James md second, Sarah F STONE 04 May 1882 at Casa Twp, Perry, AR. Other childrens were William, Nicholas M., Margaret E. & Julia A. It is unknown who these other children married. If anyone knows anything about these families, please contact me privately. I would really appreciate all the help I can get on them!! Thank you. Claudia [email protected]

I'm going to send her a free month of aol, but I don't know if she will down load it. They plan to come up if the weather is nice. Sure hate I have to work that Friday, I may go in for 4 hrs. And come home. Thats Blitz day at Wal-Mart. Maybe she can come down and pick out Lennie a Late Late late Christmas present from last yr. It' s a long story. I returned his and because we live so far, she said just wait until they come up here, and then the warrnty will be good . Must hush just comedown to put a load of clothes in and see if we had mail. I'm still dripping (hair). Catch you later. Nina
Hello list members -- I want to first apologize for the length of this request. I am providing ALL the information that I have. If anyone has any suggestions or recognizes any of the names I would deeply appreciate any/all help in solving this puzzle. I am researching my husbands side of the family. His g-grandmother was suppose to be a Cherokee Indian. I have no proof of this or any evidence to suggest that this is true, only family stories. I do not know where she was born or who her parents were. The only evidence I have of her life is two marriage licenses one for 1890(Jackson County) and one for 1897(Conway County) and the 1900(Conway County), 1910(Yell County), 1920(Lonoke County) census records. She was born 1870 - 1873, maybe as late as 1875 died 1942. (I have been unable to locate a death certificate on her only an obituary no social security either.) She was married 3 times and had children by all three husbands. All her children are deceased. She lived all her life in AR as far as I can tell (according to the census records). She may have been born in OK, but it would have been before OK became a state. The names I have are as follows: Dora Adeline GRANT (1st marriage), M MALONE, (children) Pearl married a HAIL/HALE, Myrtle b ~1892 married W F PAINE/PAYNE (2nd marriage), Noah Strong EDMON(D)SON, (children) Houston Grantson married Mabel MCARTHUR, Charlie married Rose SENBILL (3rd marriage), Joseph Wesley CARLOCK, (children) Ruby several marriages, Hurbert married a FRY She had two brothers, JAMES and WAIN GRANT. I just found them listed in 1900 soundex for Welborn township, Conway county! As being enumerated with POLLY SITTERLEY, listed as mother and head of house. (NOTE: I found in vol5 of Cherokee by blood an application about the Sitterley name. The person is admitted and stated that the grandfather was born in North Carolina.) I have a marriage license for Jim (Jas) GRANT to MRS. ALLIE WINTON August 7, 1903, Conway County. He is listed as 21 years of Cardon Bottom in Yell county. She is listed as 25 same place. Another piece of information on James GRANT. A marriage to Josephine Vaughn Verden in Pope/Yell County. James died in 1926 and is buried in Brearly cemetery in Yell county. His death certificate lists his name as James H GRANT, born in Searcy County. Father's name is Andrew and mother's is Barbara unknown. I also have one for Wain (Wayne) GRANT to MATTIE GRAMBLE February 14, 1903, Conway County. He is listed as 23 years of Atkins in Pope county. She is listed as 29 same place. James GRANT listed as head of household in the 1910 census for Wilson Township, Yell county. He is listed as 25 years old, divorced and married for 6 years. (The years were crossed out.) Also listed in this house is a Polly SITTERLEY. She was listed as his mother, 50 years old, widowed, mother of 6 children with 3 living. Also in the household is a Myrtle MALONE, niece, 18 years of age and single. In the margin of the census form was a notation Negro Ridge Pond. On the same census 9 visits above is Dora Adeline GRANT, married to Joseph Wesley CARLOCK. However I do not believe Polly is Dora's mother IF the ages listed are even close! But there is also a notation on the margin of her census record, Lower Petit Jean River Road. Are any of these people familiar to anyone? Does anyone recognize the SITTERLEY name? How about a cemetery somewhere with this name in it? ANY suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you to every one in advance for any help that I receive. Thank you for taking the time to read my post. yvonne ____________________________ reply to [email protected] web page: http://www.rmi.net/~henson Names I am researching: BRENT(S), GRANT, EDMON(D)SON, HENSON, MCARTHUR ____________________________________________________________________ Get your own FREE, personal Netscape WebMail account today at http://webmail.netscape.com.
