Hello, Is anyone researching PAXTONs in Arkansas? I just discovered that my line of Paxtons spent a few years in Berryville, Arkansas in the 1920's and was wondering if anyone on the list might have information that could be helpful. Tina Paxton

I have Arkansas Paxton relatives. Tell me more and maybe I can help you. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tina Paxton" <Frecs@atmc.net> To: <PAXTON-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, August 05, 2004 12:09 PM Subject: [PAXTON-L] PAXTON in Berryville Arkansas > Hello, > > Is anyone researching PAXTONs in Arkansas?

Paxton (born 5 May 1861 in Whitby Ontario Canada to parents William and Charlotte (Churchill) Paxton both born Ontario Canada) and his wife Ruby L Herman (born Jan 1869 Iowa to parents William and Adeline Herman originally of PA) married in 1885 in Lyon County, Iowa homesteaded in South Dakota (1892 to 1901), moved to Aspen, Colorado (1901) their youngest son (my grandfather) was born 1910 in Aspen. Children born to them in SD: Elsie Rebecca, John Dryden, George Livius, Joseph Rutheford, Rachel. I just became aware of their living in Berryville, Arkansas through a letter sent by Ruby to Frank July 8, 1928 from Berryville. I also received a copy of an article written by Frank and published in The North Arkansas Star on August 6, 1928 describing the Rocky Mountains around Estes Park, Colorado (where he is working at a golf and country club) to the readers of The Star. In the letter he says he is sending the letter because he "used to enjoy reading the Star" which suggests he had lived there for some time before returning to Colorado. I have them on the 1910 Colorado census and on the 1930 census in Orange County, California. Can't seem to find them in 1920 census anywhere. I know that the move to California was to assist Livius's parents with their orange orchards but I'm not sure what brought them to Berryville, Arkansas. I'm wondering if they had family there that preceeded them????

I am a Paxton in Arkansas. My maiden name was Paxton. I currently live in Huntsville, AR which is about 30 miles from Berryville. My father's family was born in Eastern Arkansas.
