Marci, I live in Winston County and am a descendant of James Madison Boswell, Sr and his wife Seanna (Sena) Mullins. I am the great granddaughter of their daughter Mary Elizabeth Boswell born 1833 died before 1900. She was married to Thomas Potts Miller King. Their son Charles Sessions King, b. 22-Feb-1874 d. 31-Dec-1950, was my grandfather. My father was William A. King, b. 18-Dec-1921 d. 16-Nov-1999. Frances King Woodruff
Hi, Frances! It's so good to hear from you! I descend from James and Seanna's son Ransom Newton Boswell, b 5 Jun 1814, d 17 Jan 1892 in Russellville, AR. He married Elizabeth C. Higgason 13 Apr 1845 in Winston Co. Ransom and Elizabeth had 8 children...I descend from their youngest son, Ransom Newton Vandorn "Van" Boswell, who was my g grandfather. Van was born in Drew Co, AR, and died in Russellville, AR in 1930. His daughter, Emma, was born in 1897, died in 1940. Her son George is my father. I'd love to compare notes with you on the Boswells! I hope to eventually get up there and findthe burial place of James and Seanna (do you have death dates and burial sites on these people?) It's exciting to finally find someone with this same line! Thanks again! Talk to you soon!
