(Walnut Ridge). In particular I am looking for Shrilda (or Serilda) McLAIN, daughter of James D (Drew I think) McLAIN, who was a son of James D., who was a son of Squire and wife Melinda Caroline HARDIN, and Squire was a son of Charles McLAIN and wife Perlina---first found in Lawrence County, Strawberry top, AR on the 1850 census. Squire and wife, and below them son James D. and a wife Lizzie are on the 1900 census in Lawerence County. This James D. also was married I think to a Josie. This James D. also named a son James D., b 1890 AR. The name Serilda / Shrilda was given to a daughter of Squire's and Melinda's, and it was given to a daughter born to Squire's grandson James D. (Drew) McLAIN( b1890) and wife Amanda. James D. b 1890 AR and wife Amanda b 1893 AR who proably married 1914-1915 in AR were on the 1930 census in Arkansas > Lincoln > Star City > District 7, Cane Creek township. I am hoping to find this line from James D.McLAIN / McCLAIN and wife Amanda's daughter Shrilda / Serilda McLAIN born about 1922 in AR, who was 8 years old on the 1930 census in Lincoln County AR--- this line may have also been in Hot Springs. This McLAIN / McCLAIN line came from (99% proven) from Weakley County, TN line most likely from NC before that, and were in KY and IL, as well as TN, some to AR and some to MO. I see Lisa McClain's postings and she and I have talked in the past . . . but been awhile. Children of Charles McLAIN, b about 1805 TN or IL and wife Perlina Unknown (maybe also McLAIN)---Thier children--Siblings of Squire are: Christianna, b about 1830 TN; David b about 1832 TN; John Henry b about 1835-37 TN; Squire b Nov. 1842 TN; and in Lawrence Co, AR--William California b 1853 near Walnut Ridge. Christianna married James SMITH in AR; DAvid married Susan E. MULLENS / MULLINS, he died circa 1855-60 and Susan remarried Wm. FLETCHER; John Henry (my gg grandfather) married Sarah Catherine AGEE b 1842 TN; and Wm. California married several times---Ellen and perhaps also Martha FRY, maybe DENT, and finally to Nancy Saphronia MEAD. Any help appreciated. Audrey Williams Stanaland
