Surnames: Howard, Hurst Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/AW.2ADE/790 Message Board Post: I am looking for any information on family in Arkansas. Here is what I know: 1870 census: Pleasant Hurst, Delilah Hurst, Mary Hurst listed in Augusta Township, Woodruff Co, AR Sometime after that Mary Hurst married James A(?) Howard, presumably from AR, and they had 3 children 1880 census: 3 orphans are listed with Henry Harris in Kensitt Township, White Co, AR Looking for any marriage info on James Howard and Mary Hurst. Also looking for their death info. Family stories indicate that they both died within days of each other in Woodruff in 1879 from typhoid(?) or yellow fever(?). Would love any proof information. Thanks in advance. Lynn Houston, TX
