    3. Hi, didn't quite know where to post this, but thought someone might be looking for this lady, and her history is quite interesting. ZONA RUTH POOLE She died in Fort Smith, AR on Nov. 6, 1998 at the age of 93. She was survived by two brothers. Oscar of Screveport, La, and Paul of Cabot, several nieces and nephews. Her Life: Zona Poole was born on a rural free delivery route of Horatio, AR, and grew up in several towns around in Sevier County. One school she attended was in Locksburg, which as she described it, a wide place in the road. Her parents were David and Mary Poole. They had ten children. Zona was the first to be born in Horatio. She never married and lived for many years with her bachelor brother, Lawson Poole. She and Lawson moved to Fort Smith in 1980 to be near their sisters, Ann Westfall and Louis Finney. Lawson died in 1985, as have the two remaining sisters since then. The two brothers, Paul , age 78, and Oscar, age 77, are all that remain of the 10 children. Zona liked to write stories, may of them about her life. She was 93 on March 9, 1998. (This info taken in parts from an article in the Southwest Times Record, written by Linda Seubold, and from Zona Poole's Obituary in the Southwest Times Record.) If anyone would like more info on this lady, I have the complete article and would be happy to share with them. Myrna Wells
