Do you have any information on a George W. Keesee who married Nancy Montgomery on 21 Sep 1848 in Saline County, AR. They lived in Saline District, Saline County in 1850 and had one daughter, Elizabeth at this time. According to the probate record of the estate of Nancy's father, Thomas Montgomery, they lived in Jefferson County, AR in December of 1858. I can find no further record of them. Do you know of this family? Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

You probably have your answer by now, since your query was 1999, but just in case, I can supply the following information: There is a photograph of George West Murphy's grown children in a book written by genealogist Carolyn Earle Billingsley, published University of Georgia Press in 2003. Your library might be able to do an interlibrary loan, or else the Univ of GA still has copies--or did when I ordered my copy from them about a year ago. The book is about the Keesees. My branch of the Keesees settled in Saline and Grant counties, AR. I think Clardy's mother was Agnes Keesee, but am writing from memory so not certain. Google search also turns up references to the GWM-grown children photograph, so Billingsley's book would not be the only source for this.

Fred, Thank you for the probate information. That may be a big help and is certainly on my list of things to do when in Malvern next trip. Don't suppose you just happen to have a photo copy of page 408? :-) One note about John and Priscilla. The John Gentry who married Priscilla was born in TN. He moved to Carroll County Arkansas and is present there with wife Priscilla in 1860. The John Gentry I am researching was born in GA and is a well documented son of Tyree Gentry of SC, GA, TN and AR. His second wife was Eliza Lowrance a widow with children who is found with John in the 1850 Census. And as you say he married Delilah in Saline county and apparently died there or in Hot Spring County in about 1864/1865. Unfortunately we do not have a clue as to who John Married first but we think it was someone from the families that all came to Arkansas about 1817 from Stewart County TN. If I were to guess I would think that Permillia might have been her name but I cannot prove it. Thanks for taking the time to pass along this very useful information. I will let you know what I find.

I suggest the Saline County History and Heritage Society Archives, right near the corner of downtown Benton that's right across from the courthouse, especially if your McCools were the Saline and Grant County bunch. The volunteers are usually there until 2-2:30. Many of the old court records are there.And friendly people to help you! The Saline County Library in Benton also has an excellent genealogy section, particularly for Saline County and Arkansas. Steve Perdue is the director and is very knowledgeable and helpful. Also, of course, the Arkansas History Commission (state archives) at One Capitol Mall, next door to state capital building in Little Rock. Most of Arkansas's old records on microfilm, newspapers, maps, etc. Google their web site. Open 8-4:30 six days a week. Good luck.

I am researching one of my ancestors a John Gentry b: 1796 in GA. Married Delilah Taylor in Saline County 28 August 1861 (marriage book C) and promptly vanishes. This John was a brother of Samuel Gentry of Saline county (who died in 1847) and my gggf. He lived in Hot Spring County but had land in Saline County possibly around Nance. His son John S. Gentry patented land about 1850 that became Nance AR. If you run across anything please let me know what you find. Thanks. Tom Gentry

Can anyone tell me if Saline Co required a merchant to get a license to operate his business in the 1860 circa. If so are there any records? Thanks M Keene
