Posted on: Yell Co. Ar Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ar/Yell/10562 Surname: Mitchell, Brinson, Peeples ------------------------- I am trying to find the parents of my gg grandmother Lenora Indiana Mitchell, born Aug. 29, 1869 in Dardanelle, Yell Co. Arkansas. I believe her parents to be Luther Mitchell and Dorcas Brinson. According to other researchers, Luther and Dorcas had other children by the name of Francis, Benjamin, Adeline, Lucy and Hiram, born between 1850 and 1860 and presumably found on the 1860 census. I can find no documention of my great-grandmother on any of Luther and Dorcas's records. However, I received correspondence from a great-uncle (now deceased) who stated that his mother had siblings named Lucy and Hiram. The time frame and places fit, but I am trying to be sure. Any information out there on Lenora Indiana Mitchell, born Aug 29, 1869, married to Marcus Green Peeples in Stillwater AR in 1885? My e-mail is iles@brightok.net Thanks, Sue Iles

Could anyone help with a marriage lookup please? I am looking for the marriage record for William Granville KELLEY and Minnie R. KENDRICKS in Yell County. We have conflicting dates, and need to settle this, as there seems to be another marriage for W G Kelley in Searcy County, following the death of his first wife Lillian (Harris) Kelley. That marriage seems to have occurred before he married Minnie Kendricks. W. G. Kelley's obit lists the marriage as occurring in Oct 1917. Minnie's obit lists the marriage as occurring in 1915. Can someone please help with this by finding the correct date? Thank you for any and all help. Rita Floyd ritajf_99@yahoo.com
Something I received from another list that was quite interesting. Enjoy! IADECATU-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [Fwd: A YEAR WITHOUT A SUMMER, l8l6.] Decatur County Journal June 9, l892 The year without a summer, l8l6, is now being quite generally recalled. According to the records, January and February of that year were warm and springlike, March was cold and stormy. Vegetation had gotten well along in April when real winter set in. Sleet and snow fell on seventeen different days in May. In June there was either frost or snow every night but three. The snow was five inches deep for several days in succession in the interior of New York and from ten inches to three feet in Vermont and Maine. July was cold and frosty, ice formed as thick as window panes in every one of the New England States. August was still worse; ice formed nearly an inch in thickness, and killed nearly every green thing in the United States and in Europe. In the spring of l8l7, corn, which had been kept over from the crop of l8l5, sold for from $5 to $l0 a bushel, the buyers purchasing for seed. We had other cold summers, but none that have equalled l8l6 in that respect. On May l0, l835, snow fell to the depth of a foot in Jamestown, Va., and was piled up in huge drifts in most of the northern states. There was snow in many parts of Iowa and Illinois on May ll, l878, and again as late as May 2l, l882. --Register ---------------------------------------------- Copied by Nancee-FYI

Judy, Prosperity or OLD PROSPERITY is south of Dardanelle right on the highway. Thinkit's about 5-7 miles south. My ancestor patented land there in 1840 and moved on to Magazine after the civil war.
