Thank you and to all that have made a reply to question. The Guess family is a related family to my Eakin Susie Fulton (b.1888) married Rufus Eakin (my grandfather), her sister was Zula B. Fulton (b. 1891) and she married William H. Guess(b.1882), in 1909 in Clark Co.,Ark.. His line is like this: William Henry Guess s/o Alexander Tillman Guess (b.1849) s/o Spenser Ball Guess (b.1827) s/o Zebediah Ball Guess,Jr. (b.1798) s/o Morgan Guess (b. 1773) s/o Moses Guess ( no info) The sister of William Henry Guess, Annie Margaret Guess (b. 1890), married Alonza Coon (his 2nd wife and she was a Bingham by a previous marriage with 3 daughters). Their daughter Tribia Coon (b.1923] was married to Hughie Claude Eakin in Clark Co.,Ark. and Hughie Claude Eakin was the 1/2 brother of father. I do have some info on the Guess family and am filling in info as I find it, such as the census on Walker Guess. One thing I don't know is who was the other wife of Alexander Tillman Guess. I have a statement that the 1/2 brothers of William Henry Guess, John and Alfred Guess, joins William Guess in Clark Co., Ark in 1834. William Henry Guess also had brother, Joe Guess, who came to live with the family around 1912. William Henry Guess came to Clark Co.,Ark. in the early 1900's. If this information is in your books I would like know. Thank You, Wanda (Netkins Group) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ellen O.
