    1. [ARYELL-L] Visit to Yell Co.
    2. I am visiting Yell Co. tomorrow and the next day. I will probably spend part of the day in Dardenelle tomorrow and maybe not go on to Danville until the next day. I will consider any and all suggestions of places to eat, motels, places to talk to oldtimers, etc. I would like to know which library has the best archives of the Civil War era and just afterward. Is there a limitation on visiting hours at either courthouse? Is there a Cemetery book available at the library? My goals are to finish up on some research done in Danville in December, 1999, and see if I can locate likely cemeteries where my ancesters (Buchanan, Moore, McClendon) and associated families (Holt, Holland, Jones, Prescott, etc) were buried. With the exception of John A. Buchanan Jr. and his wife Jennie Prescott Buchanan at Waltreak, I have been unable to find any final resting places for them. I will be looking into deeds also in an effort to locate the land on which they lived, to investigate the possiblility of a small family cemetery. All suggestions will be printed and considered seriously. If you are one of the people with whom I have corresponded and would like to compare notes, please write and maybe we can make some arrangements. I know I have promised several that I would notify you when next I was planning a trip to Yell, but this happened out of the blue and once again, I am not at my own computer. Thanks for any help or suggestions you can give. Maryann Dixon Moseby
