Kara, Thank you for correcting my error. The two marriage dates were over one another on two separate lines. I picked up the wrong year. 4 July 1867 is what the book says. Thanks again for your sharp eye. Nita Fry a message dated 1/16/2007 10:35:10 A.M.

I have them married in 1867, since she married James Sammons first, not Michael Looney and I have them on a census record 1880 in Randolph Co. Ark. Michael was married to a Nancy as shown on the preivous census records. Kara Kara- Enjoying the genealogy puzzle! The 20th Great Grandaughter of Hugh Rose 1 Laird of Kilravock - Scotland
