Site 1- Alphonso West, Sr. b 1906, died 1965 Alphonso West, Jr.. b.1933, died 1960--no one else was mentioned although it was a 8 grave site with a Nice Head Stone. Site 2- Murdock Butler West, b.1869 died 1945 Wife-Florence Jane Carter West, b.1881, died 1960 Children (I assume) were Sally West Allen b.1908, died 1989----Oscar Moody West, b.1915, died 1946, and Myrl West Evans b. 1900, died 1993. ( Sure hope I last that long.) would have really have loved to have talked to Myrl. Site 3-Herbert G. West. b april 6, 1886, died july 6 , 1953 Wife was Novella Carter West b. sept1, 1888, died jun 29, 1969 They had 4 still born children which are named and shown.

    1. [WEST-L] Stella Sarilda West (Bentley)
    2. Mike and Nancy Riley
    3. I am researching Stella Sarilda West born 1/9/1884 in Missouri. I have a hint that her mother's maiden name was Adams. I have a recorded interview with her and she states that they lived in a shed in her Grandma Adams yard in Missouri. They then moved to Arkansas by covered wagon around 1892 (she was about 8). She married Cornelius Hester Bentley on November 1901 in Van Buren County, Arkansas. The Census Record that I have for the Bentleys states that both of her parents were born in Missouri. If anyone could make a connection for me, Please let me know. This is my dead-end! Nancy D. Riley

    3. Do you have info on these people? Jesse WEST (b. 1771) m. Nancy FRENCH (b. 1771) Their daughter Lucy WEST (b. 1796) m. Andrew BEERS (b. 1797?) I have no idea where these folks are from. Andrew may have been from Connecticut and part of that big Beers family up there, but I don't know. Lucy and Andrew ended up in Leavenworth, Indiana, though. These birthdates were in an old family bible and have not been confirmed. Thanks. Mary Ann Albin Family tlalbin@msn.com
