Hi everyone!!!! My name is Gaytha Thompson and I am new to the Dyess mailing list. I am not a direct descendant of the Dyess family, but I have a wonderful cousin......katie......that is. She is a direct desendant from the Dyess's and she is my cousin because one her Dyess family married into my Davis family in Louisiana. We met on a mailing list like this one! So everyone, please send in any information whatever bits and pieces you have because you never know when that "wonderful cousin" will turn up. I am doing a lot of research in the Central Louisiana Parishes and have some resourses that I am now searching in for Dyess information. I will be posting anything I locate to the Dyess mailing list over the next few weeks. Here are Land Records from the FTM CD 253 for Louisiana 1700's -1908. My next couple of post will be Land Records from Arkansas and Florida.

Hello one and all, Last summer we went to Dyess Arkansas to see what we could find. As it turns out we did not find much. Did take some photos. Here is what we learned. Dyess Arkansas Dyess Arkansas was started in the 1930 by W. R. Dyess who was Relief Administrator for arkansas during the Roosevelt administration. It was called Dyess Colony and was named after him. In the 1960s the name was changed from Dyess Colony to Dyess Arkansas. Dyess is located in Mississippi County Arkansas in the Mississippi River valley. Local residents say that at one time the town had about 2000 people but now the population is 466. There was a hospital, pool hall, garment factory, bank and drug store which are no longer there. In addition there were grocery stores and filling stations, etc. some of which are still there. There is also a city hall, police station and post office. No Dyesses live there now. Eugene Williams, a local T.V. personality and musican, is a home town boy as is Johnny Cash. The town has a reunion the first Saturday of July each year and Williams and Cash often attend. Does anyone have more info. especially about the man who founded the town? Don C. Marler

Thanks!! kaite... --------------------- Forwarded message: From: jwalla03@MAIL.ORION.ORG (Jean D. Wallace) Sender: LOUISIANA-ROOTS-L@LISTSERV.INDIANA.EDU (Genealogy for Louisiana.) Reply-to: jwalla03@MAIL.ORION.ORG (Jean D. Wallace) To: LOUISIANA-ROOTS-L@LISTSERV.INDIANA.EDU Date: 97-10-01 21:35:50 EDT James Franklin DYSE (any spelling) is said to have died in June of 1903 near Shreveport, Louisiana. At the time of his death, he was working as a ventriloquist in a wagon show. I have a picture taken of him and his wife, with another man and a small boy dressed as a clown. The ventriloquist had two ventriloquist dolls, one on each knee. He was seated, and so was the other man, and behind them was the wagon, with wording at the top, partly cut off above the picture. The words looked like MOLLAN. MURROW SHOW I would like to know if this picture was advertised in a newspaper as advertisement. If so, what date? And what names were mentioned? The ventriloquist was my grandfather. I need to know when and where he died. It is said that he was 46 years old, in 1903 near Shreveport when he died of a heart attack. I need a newspaper article, or obit, or cemetery record. I will appreciate any help. Thank you very much. Jean
