Dear List Members, If you are interested in knowing about other genealogical mailing list available, one of the very best inventories of genealogical mailing lists is John Fuller's Genealogy Resources on the Internet located at http://www.rootsweb.com/~jfuller/gen_mail.html If you ever need to unsubscribe from this list or any Rootsweb list all you need to do is visit Password Central located at http://passwordcentral.rootsweb.com/ Follow the instructions and you will received an e-mail of all lists you belong to and from it you can unsubscribe from the ones you want to. Always know that I will be more than happy to help you if you are having problems unsubscribing, you only need to ask. Please send this request to KathleenBurnett@earthlink.net not to the entire list. If you would like to visit the Archived messages of this list, go to http://archiver.rootsweb.com/ and type in the name of the list you would like to search and from there you can search by dates. If you are having problem and I do not answer you right away, know that I will. I like many of you work full time outside of my home. I am fortunate that I can check my e-mail any time I wish, but know that there are spaces of time I cannot. I always check my e-mail each and every evening and will respond to message as quickly as possible. There are a few items I would like to suggest for the benefit of each of us. 1. When sending a posting to the list it would help if you would put the subject of your posting in the subject line. Doing this also might give you a better chance to attract the attention of someone who has the information you are looking for or the attention of someone who is searching for the information you are posting. Many members are on many many lists and when they see a subject line that reads "My Ancestors" they just delete it. 2. When posting a query regarding a surname it would help all of us if you would put your surname in CAPS. This way the members can easily pick out the surnames you are looking for. On the other hand when the entire message is in CAPS we feel that we are being yelled at. 3. Please remember to delete the tags and un-needed words when you re-send a message to the list with your answer. If you don't check this, your responses can become quite large and may cause problems with some of our member's servers. This member who might not be able to receive your message because of its size, just might be your long lost second cousin with all the answers you are looking for. 5. Remember to keep your Virus protection up to date and never open any attached file unless you are 100% sure what it is and even then you are taking a chance. 6. Now, the hardest thing is when one of our own, a fellow member becomes upset about a posting from one from one of us. It is so hard not to jump in and add our two cents. I want you to know how much I appreciate it when you just let these posting go by and delete them. Know that I am behind the scenes taking care of the problem. If you ever have a concern that I might have missed a message that needs addressed you are welcome to contact me during the day at Kathleen.burnett@era.com or in the evenings at KathleenBurnett@earthlink.net. 7. If your list has the gateway open, meaning the messages posted on the board also hit he list, know that every once in a while a SPAM message that is caught by the Board filter slips through the gateway and hits the list before it can be stopped. JUST DELETE IT. By responding to the list regarding he offending message, you just continue it on, and there is not one thing I can do about it at that point. Please remember, so that this list is better for each of us, the posting of virus warnings, test messages, chain letters, political announcements, current events, items for sale, personal messages, flames, etc., in other words Spam is NOT ALLOWED and will be grounds for removal. Consideration for exceptions, contact me at KathleenBurnett@earthlink.net I want to thank each of you for your continued support of me and your willingness to help make this list the success it is. It is your list and is here for your benefit. If you have suggestions or comments you would like in future reports, you only need to send them to me.

Looking to connect with researchers of the above families. Am looking in particular for descendants of Sarah E. MURPHY ARMSTRONG, Mary M. MURPHY BYERS, Martha, Trudy and Robert [Bob] MURPHY who were all children of John W. MURPHY and Mary Jane [Janie] SCONCE [b. 1869]. I am descendant of Mary Jane [Janie] SCONCE's brother, John H. C. SCONCE [b. 1865] and have lots on the SCONCE family, but a bunch of blanks on the MURPHYS.. Janie and John H.C. SCONCE's step mother [2nd wife of Daniel W. SCONCE SR, mar. 1876], was also Sarah Catherine MURPHY. I believe that Sarah Catherine MURPHY was the dau. of Unknown MURPHY and Emmeline UNKNOWN. Her brother, John W. MURPHY, mar. Mary Jane [Janie], but this is all speculation on my part and am trying to find documentation. All of these can be found in Sharp Co.

Does anyone know if there is an index for wills and probate listed. I would need one for 1898-1899 in Sharp County Ark. Thank you Carol Jo

I had finally had to pull out the laptop, my ISP has been down most of the day. I'm pretty sure it is their problem, but I want to be sure so I'll wait until Wednesday. The desktop has worked perfectly all day. I have been backing up files and burning CDs and I defraged too. Will talk to you later. Thanks, Joyce

Could someone please check their cemetery database for Sharp County and tell me what Wainwright's are buried in Sharp Co. Thank You, Mary

Would someone please check their Sharp Co. marriage database and see if there is a listing for the marriage of 1.) Clara B. Wainwright (born abt 1861, and 2.) John Cornelius Wainwright born abt 1875. Also need to know if John Cornelius Wainwright is buried in Sharp Co. Have his year of death as 1941, but not his place of death. Thank You, Mary

Just in case there are new people about I wanted to post again. Looking for any information on the family of John H. ["WELCH" in the 1880 census] WALSH of Izard County, Jefferson Township. 1. John H. Walsh (b.1843-Tennessee) sp: Mary Margaurite Fowler (b.12 Feb 1851-Tennessee;m.21 Dec 1865;d.8 Dec 1918-Hardy Arkansas) 2. Nancy M Walsh (b.1867-Tennessee) 2. John William Walsh (b.22 Sep 1868-Tennessee;d.16 Jan 1940-Hardy Arkansas) sp: Laura L. Clayton (b.9 Nov 1873-Arkansas;d.27 Aug 1923-Hardy Arkansas) 2. Joseph M Walsh (b.1871-Tennessee) 2. George F. Walsh (b.1873-Tennessee) 2. Samuel G Walsh (b.1875-Arkansas) 2. Robert L Walsh (b.Abt 1877-Arkansas) sp: Jessie A. (b.Abt 1878-Arkansas) John William WALSH owned a store in Hardy, Sharp County. There is a picture of it in the book about Hardy. The headstone for Mary, wife of John H., has the last name of TRAFFORT on it. A married name from her second husband I assume.

Hello to all. Just a quick note that our email address will be changing. The new email will be: LCJACK@GRANDECOM.COM just in case we don't get everything moved over. Thanks, Larry

From: Lloyd Clark at lwclark@cswnet.com MS Smith, Thank you for your email/letter. I am President of the Lawrence County Historical Society. I (and we the society) share your concern and outrage. We have worked with the parks department to try to get a better solution and one may be in the offing. First, the records will be preserved. The questions are when and where? Right now they are safely ensconced in the archives department at the ASU library in Jonesboro. The university has been very generous in letting us store them there till we could move back into the newly refurbished courthouse. But, the Parks folks don't seem to want us there any more even though we are the reason they exist at all. They spent 1.2 million on the refurbishment and not a dime on dehumidifiers or proper shelving for the vaults. They never intended for the records to be returned it seems. At the last moment they offered the little white wooden church building but the immediate and loud protests by the society and folks such as yourself have caused them to rethink their position. They have now offered to build a suitable, fire and storm proof vault next to the church to house the records. Catch is- we have to cede control and ownership of the records to the Arkansas History Commission which will allegedly pay an archivist to do the job Mrs. Flippo did so well for so many years. We are promised a binding legal agreement which will guarantee the records stay in Lawrence County. And they say they can't get funding till next year, if then, so nothing will be built in the next 2 or 3 years and the records will stay in Jonesboro till then. I recommend you send a copy of your letter to our Governor, to Mr. Richard Davies Director of the Arkansas Department of Parks and Tourism, One Capitol Mall, Little Rock, AR 72201, to Mr. Rex Friedman, Chief Planner, Planning & Development Section -- same address and to state legislators. Get your friends to do so as well. A few letters to the editor of the Arkansas Democrat/Gazette and the Arkansas Times wouldn't hurt either. The Parks people respond to public pressure and negative publicity. Email to: rex.friedman@arkansas.gov or richard.davies@arkansas.gov. They want the space we had for a visitor center, gift shop and offices for their staff. The little white church would be ideal for that purpose. They can't seem to understand that the records were the draw for the park. The LCHS will host a public meeting this Thursday, 7 p.m. at the Powhatan Community Center to inform the public of these latest developments and discuss options. Our primary goal is to preserve the documents properly and make them available for public use as soon as possible. I have discussed a plan with the ASU archivist to make the records more open to the public. He will likely be at the meeting. Parks and History Commission will be invited to attend as well. Many of the records are already on microfilm and available for review at the Telephone Exchange Building at the park. You will have to make an appointment with the park staff for a time though.

> Would someone who has a cemetery book for Sharp County please check to see if there is a Mordica and Catherine Halliburton listed. If so, could I please have their birth and death dates. Here's what I've got. The Halliburtons and Johnsons intermarried a lot, and I'm directly related to both families. Mordecai Halliburton's sister, Elizabeth Josephine Halliburton, was my g-g-g-grandmother. She married Catherine Johnson's brother, William H. Johnson, my g-g-g-grandfather. As for Mordecai, I have a birth date of 28 Mar 1800 and a death date of 04 Jan 1877. Catherine was born about 1805, but I have no death date for her. I suspect she died before 1880 since I can't find her anywhere in the 1880 census. They were married 14 Feb 1822. I have no idea where either of them is buried. Descendants of Mordecai Halliburton Generation No. 1 1. REV. MORDECAI4 HALLIBURTON (WILLIAM3, DAVID2, DAVID1) was born 28 Mar 1800 in Orange Co., NC, and died 04 Jan 1877 in Ash Flat, Sharp Co., AR. He married CATHERINE JOHNSON 14 Feb 1822, daughter of THOMAS JOHNSON and HANNAH UNKNOWN. She was born Abt. 1805 in TN, and died Unknown. Notes for REV. MORDECAI HALLIBURTON: From "A Biography of an Early Baptist," Baptist Banner, Martin, TN, 1905: Mordecai was living in Henderson Co., TN when he professed faith in July 1825 at the Hopewell Baptist Church and was baptized in August by Elder Elijah Cross. Several years later he was ordained into the ministry in the Bethlehem Baptist Church in Gibson Co., TN. Additional source is Bioagraphical Sketches of Tennessee Baptist Ministers, Rev. Joseph H.

Would someone who has a cemetery book for Sharp County please check to see if there is a Mordica and Catherine Halliburton listed. If so, could I please have their birth and death dates. Thanks.

I've been to the cemetery and searched all over for headstones but not found all the one's I'm expecting / hoping to find. There are a lot of broken / missing headstones, so I'm thinking they are there but just a little lost (for the moment). I'd like to find them and place markers so they won't be quite so lost in the future. So here's where I need some help. Does anyone know who the caretaker for that cemetery would be - who would hopefully have a map to the location of the graves for the cemetery? Or maybe you know a local funeral home I could contact that might take me to this info? For those interested (or incase there are some other Elder descendants out there), here are some of the one's I'm searching for. If you happen to be an Elder descendant I'd love to hear from you. 1 - Margaret E. Duncan - died about 1899 2 - William Bradley Elder - also died about 1899 3 - Mary Ann (Danner) Elder - died before 1910 I think 4 - Mary Frances (Elder) Crownover - died about 1914 Mary Frances is a daughter of William B. and Mary A. Elder (who are my gg-grandparents via daughter Sarah Catherine Elder Williamson). I found 2 of Mary Frances's sons (Leo & Levi) & her husbands father at the cemetery as well as another sister Emily Ann (Elder) Story & her husband William. Margaret Duncan is the first wife of my g-granfather George Washington Williamson. http://www.rootsweb.com/~arsharp/cemmtcarNS.html Elden ==== ARSHARP Mailing List ==== If you wish to unsubscribe from the Sharp Co., AR list, send only the word UNSUBSCRIBE ARSHARP-l-request@rootsweb.com or if you are on the Digest List to ARSHARP-d-request@rootsweb.com Arkansas Cemeteries Volunteer Website http://www.rootsweb.com/~arcemete/arcem.htm ============================== Search Family and Local Histories for stories about your family and the areas they lived.
