Hi Debbie, You may or may not have seen my post about my great great grandmother Sarah Anne Miller born c. 1865 from Pea Ridge Arkansas. I am trying to track down my Millers in Arkansas. You don't perhaps have such a name in your tree do you? She may have been born in or lived in Elm Springs as I found a census entry with a Sarah of the right vintage in Elm Springs (which is not far from Pea Ridge). I appreciate any help you can give!

You know, Gloria, I have never seen a Sarah Miller - Mary Miller was REALLY early in the 1830s in Michigan, but never in Arkansas. However, I have not checked out everyone yet, so keep your fingers crossed. If I see something, I will definitely contact you. BTW, I love the Pea Ridge area. One of my very favorite places - did your Sarah Miller's relatives live there during the Battle of Pea Ridge, or The Battle of ElkHorn Tavern, as they say in the South?
