Re: Correction on my reply regardingJohnny Cash birth place

mitchie1937 — 2009-09-15 06:11:35Z

He WAS born in the Cross Roads area which is above Kingsand..sorry for the error

Re: Johnny Cash birth place

mitchie1937 — 2009-09-15 06:09:34Z

In response to the posting by mack71660- firstly Kingsland never had 500 citizens even when it was "booming" with a sawmill, hotel and many other businesses. In the 1950's it only had 337 population and remained that number on the sign for many years. It has much less than that today. As to Johnny Cash and the house he was born in. He was not born in the Crossroads area which is up above Kingsland. His father was a tenant farmer for his brother, Dave Cash, until later when he moved the family to the Delta area when Johnny was around 4 years of age. People in the area knew Johnny as "Shoo Do Cash" but don't ask me why. Part of Dave Cash land ajoined part of our farm.
Hope this helps a little. If you want to know exactly where Johnny was born, contact Helen Goggans there in Kingsland and she will be more than happy to tell you.

Blessings

Hello,

I do not know about Michelle Obama's Shields family but I have been trying to get in contact with you about your Shields family. My grandmother Rithie Stocker had two obituaries in her collection for your relatives. They were apparently neighbors. I saw your family tree on ancestry and wanted to ask questions about it as well. I wanted to talk to you about your Flint connection as I have a lot of Stocker relatives in Flint. Please contact me at your earliest convenience. Thanks Cristal crsimmons@sbcglobal.net

Re: Henderson/Ratterree

Anita1144 — 2009-02-07 21:26:45Z

I would like to learn more about this Ratteree family
because there was a ratteree family in close proximity to Clark ancestors who lived in York Co. SC. The Clarks moved to Bradley and Drew Co. (later Cleveland) and intermarried with other families from York and Fairfield Counties SC.

Re: Austin-Brinkley

tomdodds71 — 2009-02-07 20:06:39Z

My great grandmother was Susie Rebecca Brinkley, Lafayette Brinkley's youngest sister. I guess that makes your husband and me third cousins. I know very little about Jeremiah Brinkley and Sarah Doty. I do have a marriage date and place and I have seen Jeremiah's gravestone in Cornerville.

I have a some information on the siblings, but it has a lot of holes. Most of it came from a family bible that my cousin has. I would love to share.

My husband's g-grandfather was Lafayette Brinkley who was a brother to Louella. I have some information on the family but it seems to stop with Jeremiah and Sarah Brinkley. I can't seem to find too much information about them, where they were married, their parents, etc..... I can share what I have and maybe we can all find out more of the Jeremiah Brinkley line before they came to Arkansas.

What year was your William J born? Steven had a brother William James. James married to a Sarah Colvin with children, Hattie , Mattie, harry, Eva, Artie, Odie, and Jessie.

Re: HARRIS

st_teapot — 2008-06-01 19:49:20Z

i have found William in the 1880 census he is listed as a widower. In the 1900 census is is married to Dicy. (1882 cleveland county marriage records)with a son listed as 75 years old but I guess 1875 is when Joe R was born making him 25 years old. Joe must have been from his first marriage. Dicy and William had 2 sons Charley and Claud. I was mistaken, There were 2 William J harris. I had them mixed up.

Hello,
I am researching the family John A. Hall who died in Cleveland Co. ca 1899? His children on the 1850 Weakley Co, TN census with wife Caroline are Thomas, Susan, Mary, James, Emily and William. He married Mary Sneed in 1854 in Carroll Co, TN. Children on the 1860 Dallas Co, ARK census are Thomas, Susan, Mary, Hardy (James Hardy), Emily, Adaline, Melissa and Henry.

Re: Shepard Tucker & Sarah "Sallie" White

rsmelley — 2008-07-29 17:16:47Z

Hi Diane,
I have the 1870 Drew Co and 1880 Lincoln Co. census with Shepard Tucker. I also believe that the Samuel WHITE living next door is the brother of Sarah "Sallie" WHITE TUCKER. In 1880 the last person entered on Shep Tuckers household was a Cinthia IRVIN listed mother n law age 72 (1808) Al TN TN Perhaps a 2nd marriage for Cinthia?

There was a short Bio written about Shep Tucker and Sarah White many years ago by two of their grandchildren. These grandchildren are young enough to have known Sarah.

"Our grandparents, Shep and Sarah (Sallie) Tucker, together with Uncle Sam White and his family and at least one other brother of Sarah White Tucker's left Shelby, Mississippi and came to Caldwell County, Texas in 1851. They stayed in Texas 5 years and decided to return to Shelby, Mississippi. On the way, which was early in the fall, they camped in a large pecan grove and Grandmother Tucker's single brother ate a large quantity of pecans which were not yet fully ripe. He became very ill that night and died the next day and was buried where they camped. The family never went back to Mississippi, but settled in Lincoln County, Arkansas where they stopped on their way to Mississippi."

Shepard Tucker & Sarah "Sallie" White

rsmelley — 2008-07-28 18:12:58Z

I am looking for descendants and information on the following families. The Shep Tucker family was listed on the 1870 Drew County, AR census and 1880 Lincoln Co., AR census. I believe that they lived in that section of Drew County that became Lincoln County. This family may have lived near the Cleveland County, AR line.

1. SHEPARD2 TUCKER (DANIEL1) was born in 1827 or 1835 in Alabama, and died Bef. 1900 in Arkansas. He married SARAH WHITE Bef. 1853 in possibly Mississippi, daughter of UNKNOWN WHITE and CINTHIA UNKNOWN. She was born May 1832 in Alabama, and died June 27, 1922 in Palmyra, Lincoln County, Arkansas.

Children of SHEPARD TUCKER and SARAH WHITE are:
i. CHILD3 TUCKER, b. Bet. 1850 - 1880; d. Bef. 1900.

ii. CAROLINE ELIZABETH TUCKER, b. September 1853, Mississippi. Married John Ras RODGERS

iii. SAM JAMES TUCKER, b. Abt. 1856, Arkansas; m. ROSA NELSON, Abt. 1880; b. Abt. 1862, Louisianna.

iv. NATHANIEL THOMAS TUCKER, b. September 1856, Arkansas; d. Aft. 1930, Oklahoma. Married Jo Shelby Norvell and married Lela V. Hargrove

v. MARY ALICE TUCKER, b. Abt. 1861, Arkansas; m. UNKNOWN WOMACK.

vi. ZACARIAH TUCKER, b. October 04, 1862, Drew County, Arkansas; d. December 31, 1938, Sulphur Springs, Hopkins County, Texas. Possibly never married.

vii. BENJAMIN FRANKLIN TUCKER, b. February 11, 1866, Lincoln County, Arkansas; d. November 07, 1945, Seymour, Baylor County, Texas. Married Ruthie May MORAN

viii. WILLIAM EDWARD TUCKER, b. April 15, 1868, near Pine Bluff, Arkansas; d. September 05, 1956, Vernon, Wilburger County, Texas. Married Minnie Kathryn HOLMAN

ix. MARTHA MARILDA TUCKER, b. March 22, 1874, Lincoln County, Palmira, Arkansas; d. July 29, 1953, Sulphur Springs, Hopkins County, Texas. Married James D. LESLIE

x. CHRISTA BELL TUCKER, b. Abt. 1873, Arkansas; d. Bef. 1890.

Re: HARRIS

ambhs80 — 2008-06-01 20:28:02Z

I saw that 75 yo son. That's obviously a mis-something since his parents were in their 40's. I am assuming the same thing...25 years old. I didn't realize he had been married to another woman. So far, all I've got is the line of men back to Hiliard and possibly his mother and father, Stephen and Phebe Hawkins. Not positive about that part yet. I have so much paperwork around this computer right now and I walked away from it to go out of town overnight and now I'm totally lost again! ;) I've got to review everything and get back into it before I make too many mistakes.

Re: HARRIS

ambhs80 — 2008-05-31 03:15:18Z

BTW, that obit is in the Cleveland County Herald under the year 1915 although his tombstone lookup is posted as dying 14 Feb 1914. Same person..same cemetery...Camp Springs Cemetery.

Re: HARRIS

ambhs80 — 2008-05-31 03:12:33Z

Your email address isn't working any longer but I do have information for you. I am a descendant of William J Harris and Dice A Jones. There is an obit I found for Steven M Harris which said they moved to Cleveland County in 1862. I am just beginning to delve into this side of the family and was making an assumption that these families were related. I haven't gone back far enough to confirm it as of yet but will get there soon. Thanks for your post and feel free to email me. I have a family tree that includes William and Dice.

Re: HARRIS

ambhs80 — 2008-06-01 19:48:03Z

Hi St_Teapot...

All I have so far (couple days of quick research) is that William James married Dice A Jones and had Claude E. Claude married Callie and had Aubert Butler. Aubert Butler married Rubye Golden and had Aubert D (the D doesn't stand for anything) and Aubert D married Louvicie Williams and they had...me!

http://trees.ancestry.com/pt/person.aspx?tid=4488189&pid...

This is a link to my tree but I don't have a lot of the Harris stuff up yet. I'm waiting to complete more research and gather documents. If you have more info on the family and can share...that would be great.

My husband's family are Whites but I do not know who Sarah is or who she may have belonged to.
