I remember my father speaking of Rose. He also talked about Frances Reece, Will's boys. I barely knew any of them. My understanding is that Will and Rose lived on the original land near Rison. A member of the family in North Carolina did a huge amount of research and published a book. My brothers (they live in Warren) and I have a copy. I live in Minnesota but will be in Warren some time late summer/fall after I'm retired. Do you live in Pine Bluff? Linda Pledger Green married into the Cuthbertson/Green family and has also done lots of research on us. If you are interested, I think I can track down how to contact her. If Frances is still alive, I would love to visit her. I wonder if any of the family have photos, letters, etc. We do have some pictures. Briefly, the book records that our Cuthbertson line is Scot Irish and came around 1743. They ended up in Mecklenburg County, NC where our relatives still live. Our direct ancestors came to Rison in 1853 - William Julius and Lurena McSwain Cuthbertson. Will and Cleve had other (brothers - Duncan, Stanfield, and ? and sisters Belle, Minnie, one more?). Hope this is of interest. Feel free to contact me. Direct email is [email protected] or 507-645-8405.
