Yeaaaaaa, there is someone out there. My name is Frank Stroupe. I live about 25 miles from Ripley, but never have time to get up there to do research, actually, have lived near here for 10 years and have never made it to the library. Am researching Stroup, Moran, and Queen, all of the formerly Salem, Tippah, now Ashland, Benton County. All following sites have recently been updated if you have been there before. There may possibly be some mistakes, though most of the info has been collaborated with other researchers: My Stroup info is at: http://www.uftree.com/UFT/WebPages/fstroupe/STROUP1/index.htm My Moran info is at: http://www.uftree.com/UFT/WebPages/fstroupe/MORAN/index.htm My Queen info is at: http://www.uftree.com/UFT/WebPages/fstroupe/QUEEN/index.htm (this research was mostly done by Reiley Kidd and is a few years old) Good hunting, all.
