Use the info from your family as a guideline. Much family provided info is incorrect in some way, but still useful to point you in the right direction. We know from the census that James and Mary were alive mid-year of 1860 and that JJ was not yet born. It is unlikely that they both died in 1860. Write the county courthouses of Van Buren and Stone Cos., Clerk of Deeds office, for copying fees for the grantor/grantee and grantee/grantor deed indexes for the name Broyles in the late 1800's. Include SASE. Sometimes they'll just send you the info if you include a few dollars. The indexes will show all purchases and sales by people named Broyles. I'm not familiar with AR death records. Your best bet is to find USGenWeb and see what they have regarding this. Once you find the proper authority you can send away for copies. USGenWeb (use a search engine to locate it) can probably help with marriage records too. It would be good to get JF and Mary's marriage record. JF, by the way, is probably named for James Franklin Broyles, a prominent member of the community in Green Co., TN. Be careful with the name J.F. Broyles because there were a number of them.

Hello Steve, Thank you for you response. I would really like to find more out about him, his wife, and his son James Joshua. My family gave me information that Mary and James F both died in 1860 (which is the same year James Joshua was born) but I am unsure of that information because I ran across some information that came from Arkansas Historical Quarterly (Spring, 1958) page 83. This states that he was a member of the Arkansas Peace Society of 1861, I also found a land record that he had land in Stone Co Arkansas in 1861 and 1860. This has all really got me wanting to know more. If you have any ideas on how I can find more out please let me know I am new at all this.

I found a reference to this in another list - does anyone have any more information on this BROYLES community referred to? The same mail mentioned a BROYLES cemetery. Anyone on the list familiar with this? Thanks, Donna > Books: Wright County Missouri First Families & Talmadge-Broyles > Community. > >
