Perkalong, Please post your linage (with any siblings that you may know about that connect to the Looney of Desoto Parish, LA. Does anyone on this list have some SOLID INFO. on Joseph McMinn Looney, born about 1813 Hawkins Co. TN...........migrated to LA.??? (children all ended up in TX.) I need County name in LA., where he & his family lived, so I can verify info. This Joseph was supposedly son of Absolum 4 Looney & Nancy Long. I have been trying to piece this line together, as 3 of it's descendants are my 1st cousins. These cousins are unique, in that both their parents linage seem to lead back to Robert Looney Sr. & Elizabeth ___?___. ----- Original Message ----- From: <Perkalong@aol.com> To: <LOONEY-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, July 16, 2004 12:27 PM Subject: Re: [LOONEY-L] Washington Co., AR Wills > Which Joseph?
