J Charley Hooper died somewhere between 1882 to 1890. Jereline Shaver Hooper kept a baby son, Ed. Thomas was adopted by Odom and William ( my grandfather ) was given away and lived with Thrower or Throur Family. I understand in Arkansas children were put under State guardianship. Are those files in the Harrisburg Court House? If they are, Is there someone I could pay to look these files up? PeggyAhern@aol.com California

Jereline Shaver & James Charles Hooper (could be Charley) marriage about 1877. Thank you. PeggyAhern@aol.com

I'm hoping there is somebody that lives near the Craighead County & Jonesboro Public Library that could look in newspapers for an obituary of my great-grandfather, William Elsworth Lyon. My grandmother, Elsie Mae Lyon, was born Aug. 19, 1911 in Tyronza. When she was a baby, her father passed away from an appendicitis. He was on a business trip and my great-grandmother, Mattie Belle Peters, had to go to a train station to pick-up his body. I tried writing to different cemeteries, called City Hall and another place. No luck. Since Craighead County library serves as the Genealogy Library for Poinsett County, I'm hoping they would have a newspaper with an obituary. And I'm hoping the newspapers were small back then, so it wouldn't be too much research for someone to look in the newspapers from late 1911 to late 1912. I have found lots of information my great-grandfather's family, way back to Indiana, but I can't find my great-grandfather. If someone on the Mailing List can help me with this, please e-mail me directly.

I checked the license again. I does say " Route 1, Cherry Valley" and "Poinsett County". Apparently they lived just across the county line and had a Cherry Valley mailing route.
