Lola, go into the Rootsweb site....http://www.rootsweb.com and scroll down on the right hand site. There is a connection page...named....OBITUARY DAILY TIMES. if your aunt's obituary has been sent in (which I did up until 2 weeks ago) it will show up on that site. Southwest Times site is not very good on the Archives so I don't put too much reliability on my searches there.. The obits on Obituary Daily Times are INDEXED...BUT you can write back to the people who indexed it and get the original obituary. They are kept for 90 to 120 days. Sorry, for your loss of your husband. Keep your fighting gloves on and survive. Carolyn (Parsons) Smedley angelears@alltel.net

Cliff, I am sorry for the delay but I have been going through "hell" trying to get this KAK worm virus out of my computer syster. Your parties are not listed in the 1850 -1900's. Some of the counties are not listed in this particular record, such as Franklin County. Since that name is very unusual...I have listed the only three McRee's that are listed. Might be part of your lineage. Carolyn angelears@alltel.net Marriage Index: Arkansas, 1850-1900 McRee, Emma Spouse : Duke, John F.
