Hi Gabbie,
I hope I'm not leading you on the wrong path here. After more research today I may have the last name wrong. My ggrandmother was Minnie Belle WALKER STATON and she was born in Franklin County, in or near Vesta, AR on 15 Oct 1879 and died 16 May of 1938 in Vesta. Married T.F. (Thomas) STATON 23 Dec 1897. They are both buried at Mt. Hope Cemetery. On her death certificate the maiden name for her Mom was very hard to read and I wasn't sure if it said BEARD, BEENE, BEAN or BEAR. First name Rosa. Father was Charles WALKER. That is as much proof in documents that I have. From what I have gathered through census documents and guessing is the father and mother of Charles is James and Sarah from AL and TN.
Now I am thinking it was BEENE and not BEARD. I can go further into what I have but it may not be what your needing. If anything sounds good to you let me know and I will give you all I have but I have a feeling I am leading you astray. As we are both looking at the same County and time frame I will let you know if I see anything with the BEARD surname. Have you tried the newspaper from Ozark? I think it is called the Spectator. They are online.
