Does anyone have specific/exact directions to the Bussell Cemetery? Also, I need to know whose land it is on if anyone has that information. Thanks, Christine

I'm pretty sure that its Gurdon, since no other town comes up. The info on GUNDON was sent to me by an elderly cousin, so you all are, I'm sure, right! Thanks! Lanita

What is the name of the cemetery out on Hwy. PP west of Koshkonong? It is on the east side of the road across from a church. The name of the cemetery and the church escapes me. Also, I think it may be over the line into Howell County. Can someone please refresh my memory? Christine

I just received my OCGS newsletter and was interested in the article WHO WAS MARY DAVIS. Since 2 of the Mary DAVIS mentioned I am well aware of, and who they were proven by resources and direct family members, I am sending this to the list in hopes that someone on the list can pass it on to the society for next issue. 1. Mary DAVIS, who mar. Littleton Horace DAVIS and is buried at New Salem Cem., was Mary Ann DUBOISE, dau. of Elias H. DUBOISE and his wife, Rebecca. She was born 1820 in Tennessee, and Mary Ann was married to Thomas Hill, and had the Mary Ann Rebecca HILL, who mar. Lorenzo D. 'Rance" DAVIS, son of Littleton Horace DAVIS and his 1st wife, Jemima [Mina] MADDOX [who is also buried at New Salem]. After Thomas HILL's death, Mary Ann [the mother] married James HOWERTON on 3 May 1859 in Oregon Co. After his death Mary DUBOISE HILL HOWERTON, married Littleton Horace DAVIS. 2. Mary Ann Rebecca HILL DAVIS, was indeed the dau of Thomas and Mary A. DUBOISE HILL, and married Lorenzo D. 'Rance" DAVIS, 3rd son of Littleton Horace DAVIS and Jemima [Mina] MADDOX. Littleton Horace DAVIS was my 3great grandfather, and I have researched his DAVIS lines extensively. All of this information is in the Welcome K. BENNETT book which I previously donated to the OCGS a few years ago. It contains several documentation articles which should have cleared this confusion up. [Welcome K. BENNETT had a son, James, who mar. Littleton H. DAVIS's dau, Ladora Olive [Ollie] DAVIS, by L.H.'s 1st wife]. As for the 3rd Mary Davis, I am unfamiliar with her, as her husb. Eliphas, is not of my line. oh yes, the minors mentioned in the Estate of Mary Davis, wife of L.H., were: Littleton Horace Jr.[sometimes referred to Horace Littleton], Lorenzo Dow [Rance], and James F. DAVIS who were the children, of course. Rance was very prominent in the county and has an obit on file. Would someone please pass this along so that the clarification can be made in the next issue? For further info or questions, let me know! Lanita Sconce Smith

Lanita, maybe Gunden is a misspelling. There is a Gurdon, AR just off of Interstate 30 about half way between Texarkana and Little Rock. And... it has a railroad that runs through it.

I think you are on the something! Thanks so much! Lanita

Anybody heard of the above community? I tried rootsweb to find the county and nothing came up... anybody know anything about it. There was a freight train wreck in 1896 where one of my BIRCHETTS was killed. Trying to find out more about that wreck. Lanita

Anybody know of a Sharp Co. marriage book that can be purchased as well as the cemetery book? If not, anybody got a listing for either and willing to do a lookup? Lanita I'm always late. My ancestors arrived on the JUNE flower.

Are you sure that it's not Gurdon Arkansas? If so, Gurdon is in Clark Co in southwest Arkansas. Betty Tucker Lanita Sconce Smith <ozarkn@grm.net> wrote: Anybody heard of the above community?

Not in Oregon Co., try Howell Co or Ripley Cos, MO and Randolph Co, AR. Lanita

None of the GRAYs you mentioned are in the Oregon Co. History Book. Try Howell Co. Lanita

Peggy, Thank you so much for these links. I love what the Internet has to offer and appreciate that people will share the sites they find. I looked though the books and other info and have found some familiar names, but will have to do more research to verify relationship.Does anyone know if there is a MyFamily site for Randolph County, AR?

Lanita, thank you for this offer. Please look up Francis Marion Gray. He died between 1900-1910 He was on the 1900 census in Big Apple Township and not on the 1910, his wife a widow was. He was born about 1847. His brother Aaron Gray, born about 1852, also died between 1900-1910. Aaron's wife Marrian/Mary Ann died in 1912 and is buried in Koshkonong Cemetery. Francis Gray may be buried in the same cemetery as his brother and/or sister-in-law.

Lanita, Thanks for your generous offer. I am looking for a marriage listing for James McCAMMON and Mary BLEDSOE. Common variant spelling include: McCAMERON & McCAMRON, BLEDSAW & BLEDSALL. I believe the marriage took place about 1854, although this could have been in Howell or Oregon County. The 1850 census has James living with his first wife, Triphena, in Oregon County. The 1860 census has James living in Howell County with Mary. Thanks again!

Betty, I just checked the card cat for the Dallas Genealogical library and they have the 1946 book and one by Regina Cook dated 1992. I'll have to see if anyone else has the 2001 book.

Thank You. Charles

A good way to find out what types of books are available for different counties is to search for the county on barnesandnoble.com. They take orders for rare and out of print books as the middleman for smaller booksellers around the country. (No, I don't have stock in Barnes & Noble! Amazon and others probably can get these too.) Some are probably available at your local library or online "free" with a premium Ancestry or genealogy.com subscription. Without doing this I would never have guessed that there was an Arkansas swamp land index! They list a number of items for Randolph County, AR: Index to the Arkansas General Land Office, 1820-1907 (covers several counties) Arkansas Land Patents: Randolph County (granted through 30 June 1908). This one is not currently available. Randolph County, AR Marriages, 1821-1893 and 1893-1923 1890 Randolph County Census, Reconstructed from the Personal Property Tax List Arkansas State Donation and Swamp Lands, Lawrence, Randolph and Sharp Counties Death Notices in Pocahontas, Arkansas Newspapers 1873-1910 Historical and Genealogical Abstracts from Randolph County, Newspaper of the 1800s, and others from 1903-1918 (most years). Index to Arkansas WWI Soldiers from Lawrence, Randolph and Sharp Counties. Indexes to North Central AR census for 1850, 1870. No. Central Arkansas Death Record Indexes from 1914-1948.
