Dortha, I do not have any new info on the Darks, but I looked at the censuses on Ancestry.com, and I found the 1870 Fourche Twp, Pulaski Co census. Delilah Dark, who could very well be the Dilly Dark, Bill Dark's mother in 1850 census. I found Delia Dark age 46 in the 1860 census, Pulaski County, Little Rock. She was living with a James A Hutchings. This appears to be the same James Hutchings with whom she was living in 1850 (along with Bill) in the Little Rock hotel. There is no Mary Dark with Delilah/Dilly/Delia Dark in 1850 or 1860. In 1860 I found Baker Cypert, age 79, with wife Malinda, age 75 and a daughter Mary, living in Red River Twp Searcy Co. This is probably not the Mary Cypert who shows up in the 1870 census, as that Mary has children Mary C-14, Delilia-12; William-12; Thomas-9, Francis-6, Eluise-1. I don't know who this Mary Cypert is/nor who her husband was. There may be a younger Baker Cypert, but I don't know about him.
