Researching my grandmother's line on my mother's side of the family. No dates but here is what I got starting with my great great parents (again on my mother's side): LEVI BURNETT married FLORENCE CANILLA CHESSER in ARKANSAS. children were (do not know true chronical order of kids just names my mom remembers); ELWOOD BURNETT, SYDNEY BURNETT, RUTH MARIE BURNETT, EUDORA BURNETT (SAIN) last remembered married name for this person, but can not prove. GLADYS BURNETT COLLINS. As far as I know all were from ARKANSAS, POPE COUNTY< ATKINS COUNTY<LITTLE ROCK< RUSSELLVILLE. Grandma RUTH MARIE was born on 2/12/1928. F. CHESSER had to of been @ least childbearing age then, say 14-20 years old. So we are looking @ a date around 1908 to 1914 in ARKANSAS. Grandma Ruth had bright red-orange hair, thick and coarse. freckles everywhere and brown eyes. My mom said grandma was Irish & Indian (Cherokee tribe). Did not g! o socializing much because both nationalities were looked down upon by others, they were minorities. Lived in the country. I have 2 photographs of my Grandma Chesser. She was very skinny, & med. tall., in a very dusty dark dress/coat thing, ankle covering laced shoes, and a big black shotgun hanging off her arm. Her she had high cheek bones & dark hair pulled away from her face. No smile with eyes squinting against the sun. I can not truely prove the Indian part of our History, or confirm it with the pictures I have. Grandpa Burnett was tall & had a big boned stature, light hair & eyes, all of their children were born with brown eyes. I guess that is enough babbling from me , Thank you for your response, Stephanie
