    3. I am researching the Elijah McDONALD family that moved to Fort Smith, AR abt. 1871 from Montgomery Co.AL. His wife, Martha BANKSTON BROOKS, died prior to the move or enroute. He arrived in Fort Smith with three children: Rebecca Jane McDonald (13), Caleb Sappington McDonald, and Laura McDonald. The family stayed with Will JOHNSTON and his sister, Martha Elizabeth JOHNSTON. Rebecca Jane McDONALD married Mr. William JOHNSTON and had four children: Doshia, Jimmy, Tillman and William. She was widowed in 1880. In 1886, Greenwood, Sebastian County, Rebecca McDONALD JOHNSTON married William Anderson MILLER in Greenwood, Sebastian County,AR Rebecca (or Becky) and Wm MILLER had two children: Fannie Retha MILLER m. James Looney Coy Clifton MILLER b. 1892, Greenwood, SEBASTIAN CO., AR Wm Miller died abt. 1913... Rebecca re-married to Sam House. Rebecca died in 1937, Sebastian County. QUESTIONS: I am in need of a marriage certificate for Rebecca and Wm Miller in 1886. I also need a copy of Coy Clifton Miller's birth certificate in 1892 Also needed is a copy of Rebecca's death certificate in 1937. I was told that I needed to write to the county for these certificates. Sebastian County confused me. If the location is Greenwood, Sebastian County... could someone please tell me the address... or tell me if I need to write elsewhere. I am also curious about the history of Sebastian County from 1871 - 1937. Is there a site online that has historical data? Thank you so very much, Kind regards, Cynthia Forde
