There was an entry indicating they hold a series of letters written ca. 1860's by Matthew Y. Love. Have not seen the letters, only the brief index description. But appears he was at times in Henderson County in western NC. The description also states that he was growing corn in Dardanelle, Yell County AR in 1868. Do not know if you have this or not, but sure seems to fit your Matthew.... PS.... I am searching descendants of the Love family who moved from NC to Pope County!
