Julie, I doubt W. T. Brigman is mine but would you be able to give me the information just in case? Thanks for your help. Teri Teri, I am not aware of another cemetery in Alvord. I have been to this one many times and it is right in the middle of the town but there may be another one in the outskirts somewhere. But I do have the cemetery book for Wise Co. It has an alphabetical listing of every cemetery in the county and you names did not appear anywhere in the county. I also have the funeral record book and there is a Minnie Eidson and Mr. W.T. Brigman listed. Could these be yours? Julie

The link on: "Send message to TXWISE mail list," has this info: txwise-l-@rootsweb.com The extra hyphen (between txwise-l) in txwise-l-@rootsweb.com should be deleted.

I'm looking for the information in the 1910 California Census that is includes in the family of: Percy Hosmer, age 33, b: 1876 MA .... Ancestry.coms index database for this census year list him, and tells me the image that contains his info is contained on Series T624, Roll 84, Part 4, Page 90A.

Julie, Thanks for the link. I did notice on the USGenWeb site for Wise County there are at least two cemeteries in Alvord, is this one the most used, etc.? Teri Tighe Here is the link to the Alvord Cemetery. I checked the whole cemetery book and didn't find those names listed. Julie

Here is the link to the Alvord Cemetery. I checked the whole cemetery book and didn't find those names listed. Julie _Alvord_ (http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~drycreek/alvord.htm) Cemeteries- click here

Can someone do a cemetery lookup for me on the above two surnames between 1882 and 1900 in Alvord? They are not common surnames so there should not be alot of people listed in Wise County. Thanks for the help.

Dave, I have been to the public library in Fayetteville several times but was researching my Knecht/Knight family. They settled in the Gilmer area and I got a lot of information at the geneology room there. They are in the process of re-opening the library, a brand new one, and should be up and running in the next week or so. Since I got on the Wise Co. link I have heard from a cousin of my husband's that we have not been in contact for a long time. Thanks again for your help. Faye

Faye, I assume you have been to the Arkansas state archives. They have a wonderful staff there.
