    3. I just received the following request and I am unable to find a thing for him and hope some of you will have some ideas for him. I've never heard of a Dilstaff here in Scott Co. and wonder if it was either somewhere else or that name is wrong? I will do some further checking to see if there ever was a Dilstaff community here. I've checked the obituary books for 1910 - 1912 for the surnames Bolden, Bolin and Deck and found nothing. The newspapers for that time period are fairly complete; however, when even one issue is missing there's always the possibility that was the one it was written up in! Any ideas, anyone? Thanks.

I know that surname only lookups are not permitted, but I have very little info to go on. There was a train/wagon collision in Dilstaff, Arkansas in the county of Scott in 1910-1912 in which a husband and wife were killed, orphaning a small child. I know only that the little girl who survived was named Mary Lou Bolden or Bolin and she was put up for adoption and taken in by Thomas and Rose Deck. Any information that you could find about the accident, child, or anyone else involved would be greatly appreciated. I know that this isn't much to work with and I apologize. Thank you. Bill
