Surnames: JUNIOR/JUNYOR, WALTER Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/AW.2ADE/857.1.1 Message Board Post: Hello Gary, You must be so knowledgeable about the Cotton Plant area. May I please impose on you for your guidance in how I might possibly trace the burial location, and time of the drowing of my Uncle WALTER WILLIAM JUNIOR, who drowned in the White River when on a rise around 1910. I find him only on the 1900 Woodruff County, AR Census, in the home of his Mother, Mattie Henard, whose husbands, William P. Junior, and Dimon Henard had already died. On this Census, he is listed as WALTER, Wm. Jr. I can certainly understand how confusing that surname JUNIOR would have been to the Census taker. I have found no newspaper articles about this drowning, but I have had testimony of the remembrance of the drowning from several in that area. Perhaps, I have missed it by it being under WALTER, rather than JUNIOR or JUNYOR. Your ideas/suggestions would be so appreciated. Evelyn
