I have a map that shows the section, township and range of the area around Yellville AR. I assume you are asking about Andrew Jackson Sasser's land. It was" North East quarter of the North East quarter of section 23 in Township 17 north, of range 17 west" and was 40 acres. That would place it .. what is now Hwy 508 2 1/2 miles south east of Bruno AR., on the north side of the road. Bruno is about 5 miles southwest of Yellville AR. Story has it the Bruno arrived at it's name from a dog named "Bruno". Bruno is where Joseph Sasser had his store and his son, Dewey had a barber shop. The Store in now the home of Bruno Fire Department. Bruno is not what I would call a town. It has at the most 12 house's with-in 1/2 mile radius of the Fire Department. Standing in from of the Fire Department's building you can see the church, two house's and the pasture that belonged to Joseph Sasser. My grandfather T.A. Sasser's land was about 8 miles to the NE of Andrew's. Henry's was on the road to Andrew's but only 1 mile S.E. out of Bruno. James Nelson Sasser's was 2 miles to the N.E of Andrew's...
