Penter's Bluff is (almost certainly) in Independence County. I have been there a million times, and believe me, there are no county markers out there that I've ever seen at least, but it's a lot closer to Cushman than it is to Guion. If I was a betting woman, I'd bet on Independence!

Maybe these CREASON lines do connect somewhere. I have Sarah "Sallie" Isabella BALDRIDGE marring in Gibson Co,TN. to John B. CRESON Sr. in 1871. Mrs. Sallie CRESON married 2nd to my GGgrandfather Hiram ROGERS in White Co,Arkansas. Mrs. Sallie CRESON and her 1st husband were in White Co,Ark. before the 1880's. Odd you mention Graves and Marshall Counties in Kentucky I have also been looking in that area for other surnames that were there and some went to Bollinger Co, Missouri. Let me know when you get back to working on your lines ok? Thanks again for your post. Theresa

Your Martin Sr. (married to Sarah Finger) was the son of Martin Wiggs (b. 1790 NC, d. Apr 1868 Jackson, TN) and Martha Ellis (b/ 1795 VA.) I am descended from Caroline Wiggs and Lott Wiggs, one of whom was a child of Martin and Martha, but I'm not sure which one. I lean toward Caroline as their daughter. Martin and Martha were my GGG grandparents. I won't be able to correspond for much of September but will be in touch as soon as time permits.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Newton, Norman, Sullivan, Kellum Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/wV.2ADI/1522 Message Board Post: I have a number of ancestors from White County, AR, including Norman Family and Sullivan Family. My gggrandfather, William N. Norman (1849-1819; son of Thomas and Catherine Norman; grandson of Francis Marion Norman) married Nancy Naomi Newton (ca. 1857-1928). William N. Norman was a farmer and delivered mail in White county. Nancy was reportedly part Native American. She had a sister with the initials M. J. Nancy Naomi Newton's (wife of William N. Norman) parents were George W. and Mary T. Newton. According to her death certificate, she and her parents were born in Tennessee. It's difficult to read, but it looks like Mary T.'s maiden name was Wilson. William and Nancy Norman had several children including Al, Amanda, Cora, Ed, George, James, and LouElla (my ggrandmother). Their daughter, LouElla Norman (1874-1911) was married to a Jack Kellum (ca. 1865-1901) who died in a tornado after they had 2 children: Willy and Nancy Edna (my grandmother). It has been suggested that my Kellum's appear to be descendants of Smith Kellum and Polly Parker Kellum, but I cannot confirm this. Smith Kellum was born in Accomack CO. VA and Married Polly Parker there. Smith Migrated to Wake County North Carolina and left there for Davidson, CO, TN approx. 1820. One of the kid's known as Smith Kellum also migrated from TN to Searcy, AR. I'm hoping this is my Kellum. After Jack Kellum's death, LouElla (nee Norman) married Joseph Mack Sullivan (1867-1916), a widower who was born in Mississippi. His children from his first marriage included George, Jess,Ira, Nora, Lena, Mattie and Jack. Jospeh and LouElla had three more daughters, Alice Irene, Lottie Lucille and Florence Belle. LouElla died after giving birth to Florence. When Joseph died in 1916, the Sullivan/Kellum family moved to Amarillo, Texas. I would greatly appreciate any help learning more, particularly about the Kellums and the Newtons, about whom I know very little. Thanks very much. Pat

Milton, Did you know that the 1880 census is available online--free--from the LDS site at www.familysearch.com ? It is searchable from an every-name index. Click on the "SEARCH" tab at the top of the page, then on "CENSUS" from the menu bar on the left side of the page. It does not connect to the census images themselves, but it will show the entire family. Good luck.
