Earlier, I made a mistake. Council Bend is in Lee County, not St. Francis. Sorry. I have a History of Crittenden Co. and it says Council Bend was also known as Bledsoe's Landing. Steamboats stopped there, mostly to get wood for the boat's furnace . I gave this some thought. If they buried her there, they more than likely didn't have a tombstone. That would take a while. Also, the Miss. River has moved a few miles since 1850. (Changed its course.)The lowlands are all flooded here this time of year. It will be dry soon, and I'll drive out and check this area for you. Don't get your hopes up too high.Jeanie
