Ok listers, Here is my dilemma. I lost all my e-mails that I have save so that if and when I found some information that pertained to one of you, (I would go back and read the letter again to make sure I was getting it to the right person), weelllllllllll can't seem to do that anymore onaccounta my personal filing cabinet was wiped out. OUCH!!! And not saying that I find a lot of the information that you need but try to help. Plus, I like to know who I was talking to about what. So what I need if you all want is a brief summary of your families and the things that you were "Hillbilly Stumped" on. I think the County Pages would prefer you to e-mail me personally, but if there is some that you might think will help others or others can help you, you might send thru the County. Warmest Smiles, Pama

Good morning! Several folks have been inquiring about where to find out-of-print books written by regional authors, such as Doug Mahnkey, Mae Kennedy McCord, Ernie Deane, and more...if you can't find them by searching Barnes & Noble or Amazon, try this: http://www.alibris.com/ My mother-in-law gave me a gift certificate from alibris for my birthday; about the only thing I didn't find was Elmo Ingenthron's books (and they might be there now, I've not looked lately--they're hard to find anywhere!) Anyway, they have many older, out-of-print books, and I really liked the site. Chris Meadows, Lucile Morris Upton, and many others are there. They seem a little pricey, but then if you are wanting an older, out-of-print book, that's the way it goes. On the homefront: Work is progressing on "Law Day 2001: Outlaw Roundup" as expected. We held auditions Saturday for the Bald Knobber Re-enactment, "The League: Taney County Justice" at the Old Taney County Jail. Auditions are continuing this week, so any of you who live locally--contact me, and we'll set you up! We need lots of men for roles as both Bald Knobbers and Anti-Bald Knobbers. No prior acting experience is necessary, for only a few parts have more than a few lines. Ingrid and I have even resorted to approaching "strange" men we think would suit a role, ask them if they can act, and "beg" them into coming to an audition. <BG> The lakes are filling up, the creeks are looking so much better...it's a gorgeous time of year in the Ozarks. Ingrid has daffodils blooming in her yard, as of yesterday. Those of us with allergies to pollinating trees are all clogged up (BG), and taking our allergy meds. Don't have a whole lot of news, other than just being too busy to do a lot of playing. Have a great week!

HI Scott Sounds like a good deal to me. Here Is what Iam looking for. My grand father Arthur Morris FREEMAN. He married Myra GAITHER in 1909. I think October 20 1909. They had three sons all born in Crittendon Co., Arkansas. Ralph Morris FREEMAN b.nov. 22,1910 d. Feb. 22, 1950 in a jet plane crash outside of Arlington, Tenn. He was a Navy pilot. Elza Dee Freeman b. Mar 23, 1912 in Earle, Arkansas(my father) d Oct 10-11, 1968. he was in Fort Meade, South Dakota on Thanksgiving day in 1928. I know he went AWOL but do not know when he joined or took off. Also he was married and divorced before he married my mother in Sept 29, 1951. I know nothing of the prior marriage, for all I know I have some other siblings. Paul Jay FREEMAN b. May 21, 1914 married Elsa Bohall and lived most of his life outside of Indianopolis and died five or more years ago. Most of my info has come from Tippecanoe Co. historical association and the archives in Lafayette IN library. I have got all kinds of info on several branches of my family except Arthur Morris FREEMAN. Oh I forgot also Myra and the boys ended up back in Lafayette, In the Lafayette Childrens Home and Myra lived at Battleground(1918,1919, 1920) Shye then evidently got a divorce during thid time and remarried a Henry Shoemaker. Myra died Nov. 21,1931. I hope I didn't give you to much info, I am mostly interested in Arthur, but anything you might come across pertaining to Elza would be great also. I do not know where Myra and Arthur were married.

There are several sources on Bald Knobbers. A Living History of the Ozarks by Phyllis Rossiter outlines basic details. Also The Land of Taney is an excellent resource for Ozark Geneologist. Written by Elmo Ingenthron, it has numerous lists and is heavily footnoted. It contains Taney county officials from 1837 to 1974, incomplete 1840 census, Civil and foriegn war Veterans up through WWII, Post offfice, schools and teachers and names of newspapers in the county. Both of these resources are available in most libraries. Over the years OzarksWatch magazine and Ozarks Mountaineer magazine have done articles on the Bald Knobbers. Both of those books may still be available at the Ozark Mountaineer bookstore down in Taney County. Usually Public libraries in Southwest Missouri and Northern Ark will carry those in periodicals.
