I'm curious :-) and who knows maybe someone on the list knows the same person or can help if you are stuck. >> Hi, I am researching the surnames ELLIS & TYER. My ELLIS family moved to Poinsett Co. from Shelby Co. Tenn. about 1856. My TYER family has lived in Poinsett & St Francis Co. since the 1830's. Please check out my family history at the Poinsett Co. web page. If anything looks familiar please let me know. I have lots to share.
