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. Thank you Stacie Broyles Branson
