Shelley - You might try contacting the Bates County Historical Society or the Bates County Genealogical Society and ask if someone might be able to do some footwork for you on Richard W. Cummins. Also, go over the probate information again for Richard W. Cummins. You might have overlooked some information. Sharyn Southern California Henry/Garrison/Stubblefield/Vanhoy
