Hutson was the only family member to live in Woodruff county. He went there in the 1960's unsure what year and had a family there. His wife's name was Mary and that is all I know about her. He had aset of twin girls Bonnie Faye and Connie Raye a daugher named Rosemarie and a son Billy Joe. I have he also had an infant son Henry A. jr. who is buried in Union cem. He had been married twice berfoe and children by both wives living in Iowa,Indiana and IL. I know he was born June 28 1914 at Winfield(Scott)County Arkansas to William Henry and Nettie Mae Hutson. He was the second child of 6, Malin Thomas 1910.Henry Allen 1914,Lillie Mae 1918.Dovie Lucille 1921,William Eugene 1924(who at one time lived around Osceola)and Bettie Jane 1927. They lived in Oklahoma when their father was ran over and killed at Seminole Ok. 1929. That is about all I know except the family scattered and were in Ok. and Ar. at the time of their deaths.Bettie Jane Hutson was! my mother and I started trying to make sense of all this about ayear ago. I lost my mother 12-7-2003 but she hadn't know anyone for over 5 years so I didn't have anyone to ask. I do know that my uncle had live at Augusta,McCrory,Trumann,and Osecola since the late 50's.

I write a lot of family histories of people who have lived and died in Woodruff County and in checking my files I don't have any family history on Henry Hutson. Did he have other relativies who lived here? Anything you can provide will be greatly appreciated. You can view some of my stories on the Woodruff County Arkansas genealogy web site. Thanks in advance. Best regards, Gary Telford Family Roots Woodruff County Monitor

There is also an Island in the Mississippi River that was called Belle Point. It is part of Chicot co., but in Pioneers and Makers of Ar. it says Belle Point on the White River. Unless the author of the book read the records wrong. Again thanks for responding. Martha Case

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/AW.2ADE/821.1 Message Board Post: Hello Martha, This may not help but the Belle Point which is most popular in our Arkansas History was located on a hill overlooking the confluence of the Arkansas and Poteau River in northwest Arkansas, founded in 1817 to ease tensions between the Osage and Cherokee tribes. On Christmas Day 1817, Major William Bradford arrived at Belle Point and established Fort Smith. The area had already been settled by white men. It was later the site of the first Fort Smith, Arkansas. The Fort was closed in 1824, and intermittently occupied through the 1830's. The Belle Point is a very historic place now located in Sebastian Co., AR. There is an old historic cemetery there,consisting of 21 acres with almost 10,000 graves, among them Judge Isaac Parker "The Hanging Judge" and "Darby's Rangers" founder William O. Darby.

I write a weekly column in the Woodruff County Monitor newspaper called "Family Roots" and I will check to see if I can find the obituary for Henry Allen Hutson when I go to the office Wednesday Hope this helps.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/AW.2ADE/821 Message Board Post: I am looking for an area on the White River called Belle Point. In Pioneers and Makers of Arkansas it says that "At Belle Point on the White River Augustin John Friend had a home dating back to 1793, and his neighbor Charles Furnish , from 1801. Because of the way the paragraph is worded I feel that Belle Point is on the lower part of the White River. I know that after almost 200 years the river has probably changed course and that this name may have been forgotten. I am hoping that someone can remember. Thank you. Martha Case

Hi Kaye - There's a little bit here on Union Cemetery: http://www.rootsweb.com/~arwoodru/cemetery/allcem.htm It says that it's: Located one mile north of US Hwy. 64, 6 miles east of Augusta, and five miles west of McCrory. Re the Augusta Newspaper, yes indeed there was one. It was probably the Augusta Advocate - I'll have to look it up. I've looked it up in the book "The Cemetery Records of Woodruff County, Arkansas (vol 1)". There are two Henry Hutsons listed: Hutson, Henry Allen, Jr., b. Dec. 1, 1961, d. Dec. 3, 1961 Hutson, Henry Allen, b. June 28, 1914, d. May 5, 1970 The books also have maps showing locations of cemeteries - I'll have to scan them and post them sometime on the web site at rootsweb.com. You might also call Rhodes Funeral Home in Augusta and see if they can send you any more information. Sometimes their records are helpful.

I'm not sure where he got his name because I don't know the Wiggs side of the family higher than my father who is Rickie Allen Wiggs. I heard that his family originated from Mississippi though. I am very young, but thought it was interesting that the same name was posted.
