Beckett Mt.

@@autolycous@excite.com — 13 Jul 2004 9:45:54 GMT

Does anyone know the history of Beckett Mt.? It is said to be named for my gg-grandfather, Jackson Ross Beckett, who gave the land for a school/church house. According to NGIS, Beckette Mountain still exists by that name but I know the little s/c building has been gone for many years.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanx!

Mashburn/Shepard (Shepherd) Death Record

PamelaMashburn — 16 Apr 2008 4:02:18 GMT

I believe that William Mashburn and his wife Lydia possibly died in Faulkner/Conway County, 1870-1876.
I also believe that their daughter, Emmaline Shepard (or Shepherd), died in the same time period.

I am looking for anything to confirm their deaths. I know official death records do not exist, but maybe an obituary or cemetery book may include them.

Thanks for any help.

TURNER

Eugene Turner — 26 Sep 1998 12:00:00 GMT

I have information that has led me to Faulkner County, Arkansas. My grandfarther Vines TURNER, a Baptist Circuit Rider and/or Preacher who was supposed to have had a church near Greebrier, AR. He and a wife named Lucy had 7 children, and I'm told He had another wife and they had several children, one of which was was my father John Oliver TURNER. I think I know the 1/2 brothers and sisters of his first wife but I know nothing about his mother or sibling of this marriage. A Margaret or Maggie TURNER, my father's 1/2 sister, came home to live with Vines & Lucy in Greenbrier after her husband Charles MILLER died in Ripley, TN , 1887(the birthplace of my father). Can you help, or can you put this in your AR queries under TURNER. My father died when I was 3 and it's so hard to pick up pieces.

Anthing you can will be appreciated and thank you,

Dr. SHADOWAY

Lollipop1963 — 29 Jan 2006 2:11:49 GMT

Artress R Shadoway

jasshultz — 6 Feb 2008 5:39:11 GMT

I've been trying to track down Artress R Shadoway. It seems like most information in others trees are just copies of copies, i.e. born around 1836 and died around 1889.

Unfortunately for me, I'm a direct descendant but don't seem to know any more then anyone else. I've been picking my grandmother's brain the past couple of days and have been able to attach some information. However, I still don't have too much.

Everyone has said he was a doctor, but there is no one we know of who has seen a medical license for him. There's been stories that he may have changed his name at some point in his youth. That could explain why no one can find him on a census.

Does anyone out there have any specific information about his birth or death? Anyone have any light they can shed on this man?

margaretann1858 — 3 Nov 2007 6:44:33 GMT

Newspaper article: Little Rock Daily Republican, Nov 11, 1873, page 4

HOMICIDE AT FAULKNER
A COWARDLY ASSASSINATION

From Faulkner County (arkansas) we have particulars of the killing of a colored man named JERRY PERRY, which if the facts related to our reporter be true show one of the vilest and most dastardly assassinations which has happened in Arkansas for many a year.

From the information we could gather, it would appear that for some time back a white man named B.B. SYTLES and PERRY, his victim, had been planting cotton on shares. On Tuesday last Perry turned some calves belonging to him into Styles' cotton patch, which caused Styles to become very angry. Styles turned them out and told Perry that in case of repetition of the act he would kill him. In this threat Perry turned a deaf ear, and gave it but little attention, as his immediate renewal of the act plainly shows. He repeated it and a second time turned the calves into the lot. This being made known to Styles, he proceeded to his home, and loading his gun, crept down under a bank to within 20 years to where Perry was picking cotton, and firing, killed him almost instantly. The ball entered the region of the heart. Styles immediately saddled his horse and fled the country. Some colored men who were in the lot at the time of the murder gave the alarm, but ere assistance arrived the unfortunate man had breathed his last. Nothing has been heard from the assassin since.

I found the attached photo while going through my parents old photos.

His Uncle Joe Green that lived in the Gleason comunity was an avid hunter and always kept a pack of hunting dogs,but I don't know if he is in the picture. If anyone can identify anyone in the picture please let me know. The picture was probably made in early 1920s.

Hi...I am looking for descendents of my GM Sarah Elizabeth Faulkner, married Wm. Bunn, Spaulding Co, Ga. Sarah's mother was Susan Jane Faulkner, Father, Thomas J. Faulkner, and Sister, Mary Jane Faulkner. I remember only the names that were in the now lost Bible. Sarah Elizabeth Faulkner Bunn died in 1929. I was born late in life to my father William Thomas Bunn, by a second marriage. He was 63 when I was born in 1938. My GM Sarah Elizabeth had three living sons, William Thomas Bunn, Charles H. Bunn, Robert Bunn.
I do see in the cemetary at Newnan that in the plot there is a Rosa Duncan Bunn. I think my GM had a daughter, also, still checking on that and that the daughter died early. I am trying to find out what my GGM Susan J Faulkner's maiden name might have been. Any help would be appreciated. Residence was in the Georgia, Coweta, Newnan Area later in life and the Spaulding area, and either Pike or Polk County
area.

TOMLINSON/HILLIS marriage, 1885

I recently found my great-grandmother Amanda "Manda" Rebecca HILLIS was married to a Richard TOMLINSON in 1885. (Nobody in the family knew of this marriage.) I don't know if he died or if they divorced, and there is no record of any children that I know of. Does someone out there have any record or knowledge of this man? This is an intriguing mystery I've uncovered; perhaps they did have children and I have another line to uncover for relatives!

Needing Obituary Assistance ,please!

cantorjoeocho — 27 Jul 2006 11:53:14 GMT

Their names are Lyle Travers Hooker and Ruby Hooker and they are supposed to be buried in Oak Grove Cemetery in Conway, AR.

Lyle was born in Lamar County, TX 23 Mar 1904 and he died 3 May 1978 in Little Rock, AR but was interred in Conway, AR.

Rubye's maiden name was apparently WHITE??? We don't know when she married Lyle ( maybe Michigan?)or where she was born, just that she was born 12 Feb 1903 ( but no place listed) and passed away sometime in February, 1984 in Conway, AR.

They didn't have any kids or kinfolk here THAT I KNOW ABOUT ( maybe Rubye did ) and if one of them is you, please let me know

If you have any information about them, especially Rubye's
family or you can find and post their obituaries, it would sure be appreciated!

THANK YOU!

Margret Hawkins

5cr313mary — 26 Jul 2006 5:01:49 GMT

I am at a brickwall with her. She may have been born in Tn(?) about 1857. All i know for certain is she married James Dale (from Ms Dale family) and my grandmother ( Mary) was born July 1875 in Earle Ar. In 1886 she had a son Thompson and in 1888 a son Jesse. She died about 1888/89. Her children were in Jackson Co in 1896 when Mary married Thomas Sanders and lived with them in 1900. I am searching counties around Jackson in the hope someone might have a Hawkins family that might match her.
