Posted on: Yell Co. Ar Biographies Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ar/YellBios/10008 Surname: McAlester ------------------------- Would like to correspond with anyone having an interest in the above names in Yell or Pope counties. Trying to find John McAlister/var. sp. from S. Carolina by way of Kentucky, son of Angus/Enos McAlester. John born between 1775-1805, said in a 1897 letter "went to Arkansas". It has been suggested that Pope or Yell Co.'s have the best candidates for matching up to this John. Thanks, Paul in Bflo
