Surnames: STROUP(E) Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/0IQBAEB/308.1.1 Message Board Post: The only info I have is a copy made from the courthouse records in Franklin County appointing Dr. W. D. Stroupe guardian of George W. St. Clair Jr. The Ft. Smith newspaper had an article about the Poor Farm in Ft. Smith and mentioned Dr. W. B. Stroup being in charge. Good luck in your search.
