Thomas Otto Johnson and others

mmcgalliard1 — 29 May 2008 8:59:26 GMT

I'm interested in any information on Ivadale Keeble Johnson (1st Husband Millard Mack McGalliard, Jr. - 2nd husband Bill Hudson) b. 22 Mar 1927, Thomas Otto Johnson b. 6 sep 1900 m. Annie Maud Night Keeble, and his father William Johnson plus any ancestors and other kin of these folks.

My husband, William Curtis McGalliard, he goes by Curtis, was taken from his birth mother, Ivadale, when he was 5 or 6 by his father to Texas where he was raised. All he remembers is that his uncle Eb and aunt Sally had a well in their yard and he got in trouble for throwing a cat in it.

Any help is much appreciated,

Mary Lou McGalliard

David Editon Smith

mdfreels — 21 Mar 2007 4:14:35 GMT

David Editon Smith was living in the Horsehead Twp, Johnson Co., AR.

The middle name "Editon" is interesting. It appears on David's federal land patent.

Research and some personal documents show that David Smith is the son of James Smith. David married Sarah "Sally" Gallymore (Gallimore). They had several children in TN and AL...but so far I can only prove two: James Claiborn Smith and Sarah Ann Smith. Likely, the two boys mentioned in the 1850 census are sons as well, but could be grandsons. They were William Smith & Richard Smith.

Both Claiborn and Sarah married Grider siblings. Claiborn married Sarah Grider and Sarah Smith married William Patterson Grider. Both Griders were children of Moses Grider and Mary Powell.

I have plenty of information on the Grider family and I have quite a bit on the Smith family. What I would like to know is where they are all buried. Especially David Editon Smith.

Note: This Smith family were definitely of Cherokee Indian Heritage. David Editon Smith was a known Cherokee and he married one, Sarah Gallymore. Also, David was the son of James Smith, known among the white settlers as "Cherokee Jim Smith". Jim Smith lived in Chatanooga, TN and Northern Alabama., among his Cherokee people. Tradition has that they hid out in Northern Alabama to escape the dreaded Trail of Tears.

I would love to share information on this family. There were other Smith families in Johnson Co., AR. Could they be related?

Thanks,

Mike

Ella Burrow Photos, early 1900's

I have scans of a couple of photos identified as Ella Burrow that I would like to forward to interested parties. They appear to have been taken between 1900 and 1912 in Clarksville, Johnson County, when she was a teenager. The photos were found in an album containing mostly Allen and Evans photos, I don;t know who she is and I don't know of any relationship.

I have a faint memory of finding some time ago a list of people that left Arkansas for the California gold fields in the 1850s. I can't find it now.

Does anyone know of lists of gold seekers?

Children of Joseph Stewart born Virginia & Elizabeth born Tennessee

DonMartinThomas — 31 Mar 2008 5:31:22 GMT

Has anyone found any more information on the Children of Joseph Stewart born Virginia & his wife Elizabeth born Tennessee. The following Message was sent in and I was wondering if anyone knows anything about the Mr. Patton that Mary Stewart married, or the Mr. Holman that Margarette or Margaret Stewart married? I have info on Sarah Isabella (Stewart) Holman & Lewis Hardgrave Stewart.

ROOTSWEB JOHNSON COUNTY, ARKANSAS MESSAGE BOARD: Elizabeth and Sarah A. Stewart. Posted: 14 Oct 2000 12:00PM GMT. Classification: Query. Surnames: Stewart, Holman, Patton, Hankins, Hargrave, Hardgrave, Lewis. Joseph Stewart b.1797 and Elizabeth had 4 known children:
Mary Stewart Patton b.1848,
Margaret Stewart Holman b.1850,
Sarah Stewart b.1854,
Lewis Hargrave (Hardgrave) Stewart b.1857 married Sarah A. -?.
Elizabeth is missing on the 1860 census, Johnson County, Arkansas, and I cannot locate her maiden name, nor Lewis' wife: Sarah's maiden name. I wonder if Lewis or Hargrave could be Elizabeth's maiden name. Does anyone know these Stewart's?

Emberson Dunahoe b. 1817 in TN m. Mary Ann ? 1850 in Johnson Co., AR

SN — 13 Nov 2006 12:42:11 GMT

I am hoping that someone may have further information on the couple above. They show on the Johnson Co. 1850 Census with the following children:

Arrabella 6 yrs. of age b. TN
Amanda E. 4 yrs. of age b. AR
Louisa1/12 yrs. old b. AR

There may have been more children born after Louisa that we are not aware of. I would like to know if anyone has information on where they were in 1860 and what Mary Ann's maiden name was. She "may" be connected to a Hendrix family, but we are not sure. They lived next to Alson and Jane Hendrix, of whom I am related, therefore, her being the right age for the daughter under 15 living in the same county in 1840 fits.

Please email me if you have any further information that you are willing to share with us.

Thank you,

RESEARCH - SPECULATION: Elizabeth Stewart b. 1822 virginia - Thomas Mitchell b. 1813 Tennessee

DonMartinThomas — 23 Mar 2008 2:49:46 GMT

RESEARCH - SPECULATION: The following is research.
---------

................................................SPECULATION

Sometimes in genealogy research you just have to speculate. Especially in the Southern States, where Court Houses burned down, and the destruction of the Civil war. Speculation means you just don't pick names out of the blue and add them to this family or that family. You still need documentation to back up your speculations. I hope my documentation, on my speculations, will lead you to the same conclusions I came too.

I am going to speculate about an Elizabeth born in Virginia, February 2, 1822.
____________

The following 1850 & 1860 Johnson County, Arkansas censuses show a Joseph Stewart born Virginia. Because he, Joseph Stewart, was a widower in the 1860 census, I feel his age to be more correct, and have calculated his birth year, 1796, from that census. Joseph Stewart born about 1796 in Virginia, is listed as the head of his household, with three children. Elizabeth Stewart, Age 24, born Tennessee is assumed to be the wife of Joseph Stewart. Elizabeth is probably the mother of the two younger Stewart children, where William A. Stewart is probably a son by an earlier marriage.

CENSUS: 1850 Johnson County, Arkansas census. Spadra Township. Stamped Page Number, 155. September 28, 1850
Joseph Stewart Age, 50. (m) Mill wright. 300. Born Virginia.
Elizabeth [Stewart] Age, 24. (f) Born Tennessee.
William A. [Stewart] Age, 14. (m) Born Arkansas.
Mary A. J. [Stewart] Age, 3. (f) Born Arkansas.
Margerette A. [Stewart] Age, 8/12 (f) Born Arkansas.
Sarah A. Parsons Age, 20. (f) Born Tennessee.
---------

CENSUS: 1860 Johnson County, Arkansas census. Perry Township. Stamped Page Number, 1075-B. July 3, 1860
Joseph Stewart Age, 63. (m) Mill Wright 320/425 Born Virginia.
Mary [Stewart] Age, 12. (f) Born Arkansas.
Margaret [Stewart] Age, 10. (f) Born Arkansas.
Sarah [Stewart] Age, 6. (f) Born Arkansas.
Lewis [Stewart] Age, 3. (m) Born Arkansas.
Gilletha Hankis [Hankins] Age, 32. (f) Born Tennessee.
Mary [Hankis] [Hankins] Age, 12. (f) Born Arkansas.
Sarah [Hankis] [Hankins] Age, 9. (f) Born Arkansas.
Lucinda [Hankis] [Hankins] Age, 7. (f) Born Arkansas.
Joseph [Hankis] [Hankins] Age, 5. (m) Born Arkansas.
Henry [Hankis] [Hankins] Age 6/12[?] Born Arkansas.
---------

NOTE: It appears that the Gilletha Hankins family which is listed with Joseph Stewart born Virginia, in the above 1860 census, is not Joseph Stewart's daughter. There might be some type of relationship since there are Hankins in Madison County, Arkansas born Virginia. The following is the Gilletha (Rogers) Hankins family in the 1850 census.

CENSUS: 1850 Kings River, Madison County, Arkansas census. Stamped Page Number, 276-B. Enumerated on the 28th Day of October, 1850.
Jesse Hankins Age, 24. (m) Farmer. /100. Born Tennessee.
Martha [Hankins] Age, 24. (f) Born Tennessee.
Mary [Hankins] Age, 3. (f) Born Arkansas.
----------

Anyway the following documentation shows us that indeed Joseph Stewart, born Virginia, had married in Scott County, Virginia to a Marget or Margaret Jones.

MARRIAGE: Joseph STEWART married Margaret JONES 25 Apr. 1818, Scott Co., VA. Source - Query, Betty T. SNYDER, 2303 17th St., Lubbock, TX 79401, Johnson Co. Historical Society Journal, Vol. X, No. 2, Oct. 1984, p. 69.

The following tells us about the time Joseph Stewart came to Johnson County, Arkansas, and that John Morgan Stewart is the son of Joseph Stewart born Virginia. John Morgan Stewart's Johnson County, Arkansas Tombstone states he was born in Scott County, Virginia.

BIOGRAPHY: John Morgan Stewart came to Piney [Johnson County, Arkansas] with his father, Joseph Stewart, when deer and bears were plentiful in the forests. The late Dr. J.L. Stewart of Spadra was his son. The present Dr. Joseph Stewart of Knoxville is also a descendant. Source - THE FIRST HUNDRED YEARS, Published December 1921 by Ella Molloy Langford, Page, 168 - 169.
---------

So now we can say Joseph Stewart, born about 1796 in Virginia, had the following families.

Joseph Stewart born Virginia
Wife (1.) - Margaret (Jones) Stewart
Son - John Morgan Stewart
Son - William A. Stewart
_________________

Joseph Stewart born Virginia
Wife (2.) - Elizabeth born Tennessee
Daughter - Mary A. J. Stewart
Daughter - Margerette A. Stewart
Daughter - Sarah Stewart
Son - Lewis Stewart [Lewis Hardgrave Stewart]

The following is a Marriage Bond. It will tie the two families of Joseph Stewart together, since the older half brother, John Morgan Stewart, is security in the marriage bond for the younger half brother, Lewis Hardgrave Stewart.

In the following censuses notice Elizabeth Mitchell, born Virginia. Speculating that Elizabeth Mitchell is also the daughter of Joseph Stewart, born Virginia, because she had brother, William A. Stewart, working as a farm laborer in the 1860 Crawford County, Arkansas census. Elizabeth (Stewart) Mitchell had Half brother, L. H. Stewart or Lewis Hardgrave Stewart, and half sister, M. A. P. Stewart, or Margerette A. Stewart, listed as part of her family in the Crawford County, Arkansas 1870 census. Also feel she is Joseph Stewart's & Margaret (Jones) Stewart's daughter because she was born in Virginia. Speculating that Thomas M.

From the above 1870 Crawford County, Arkansas census we learn that the Thomas Mitchell family moves to Missouri for two to three years around 1855. Thomas Mitchell and family are back in Arkansas around 1860 and move to Texas probably during the Civil war conflict, since their son, J. N. Mitchell was born 1862 or 1863 in Texas. There is a possibility that Joseph Stewart born Virginia, and children of his second marriage, could have also moved to Texas with the Thomas Mitchell family? A possibility that Joseph Stewart born Virginia could have died in Crawford County, Arkansas or Texas during the Civil war decade, since no Will or Guardianship Records can be found in the Johnson County, Arkansas Court House Records.

Notice the Robert M. Mitchell in the above 1860 Crawford County, Arkansas census. The www.rootsweb.com - http://www.rootsweb.com - database - mjr6387 - Families Of Sequoyah County, Oklahoma & Others - By Sharen Neal states, "The Dawes Cherokee Enrollment Application shows the father of Robert M. Mitchell to be named Thomas W. or M. Mitchell and his mother's name was Elizabeth. Both parents were dead in 1901." This same rootsweb Database - mjr6387 - Families Of Sequoyah County, Oklahoma & Others, gives the full names of Robert M. Mitchell and his wife, which are Robert Marion Mitchell & Alzina Melinda (Joyner) Mitchell. Anyway sometime in the Civil war decade Robert Marion Mitchell moves to Johnson County, Arkansas because he is shown marrying Melinda Joyner on December 31, 1868, in Johnson County, Arkansas.

The following is the 1870 Johnson County, Arkansas census of Robert Marion Mitchell & Alzina Melinda (Joyner) Mitchell. The May A. Mitchell & Sarah F. I. Mitchell might be a census enumerators mistake, and they should read, May A. Stewart & Sarah F. I. Stewart? The above 1870 Crawford County, Arkansas census had Margaret & Lewis Stewart and the following 1870 Johnson County, Arkansas census might have Mary A. J. Stewart & Sarah Stewart, accounting for all of the children of Joseph Stewart & second wife Elizabeth born Tennessee. Future research will let us know for sure if the May A. Mitchell & Sarah F. I. Mitchell are in fact Mary A. Stewart & Sarah Stewart in the following census record. It is possible that Joseph Stewart born Virginia, died between 1860 & 1870, or sometime in the Civil war decade. His oldest daughter Elizabeth (Stewart) Mitchell taking two of her fathers younger children to raise, and someone in Johnson County, Arkansas taking the other two children to raise, which somehow ended up in the following family of Robert Marion Mitchell?

CENSUS: 1870 Perry Township, Johnson County, Arkansas census. Stamped Page Number, 52-B. Enumerated on the [no date], 1870.
Mitchell...Robert M. Age, 22. (m)(w) Miller. /280. Born Arkansas.
[Mitchell] Malinda A. Age, 21. (f)(w) Keeping House. Born Arkansas.
[Mitchell] Lilia [?] B. Age, 8/12. (f)(w) At Home. Born Arkansas.
[Mitchell] May A.[?] J.[?] Age, 23. (f)(w) Without Occupation. Born Arkansas. [This could be Mary A. J. Stewart - ? - Half Sister to Robert M. Mitchell's Mother, Elizabeth (Stewart) Mitchell]
[Mitchell] Sarah F. I.[?] Age, 15. (f)(w) At Home. Born Arkansas. [This could be Sarah Stewart - ? - Half Sister to Robert M. Mitchell's Mother, Elizabeth (Stewart) Mitchell]
---------

Anyway Robert Marion Mitchell and family move on, and are found in Madison County, Arkansas in the 1880 census. His moving to Madison County, Arkansas gives the impression that there is a relative, or someone related to the Stewart line in Madison County, Arkansas.

Thomas Mitchell, and possibly Elizabeth (Stewart) Mitchell, followed their son, Robert Marion Mitchell, back to Johnson County, Arkansas. Elizabeth (Stewart) Mitchell dies in 1873 and the 60 year old Thomas Mitchell marries again, one year after her death.

The following is the 1880 Johnson County, Arkansas census of Thomas Mitchell & second wife, Elvina (Fox) Mitchell and family.

So now we can say Joseph Stewart, born about 1796 in Virginia, had the following families.

Joseph Stewart born Virginia
Wife (1.) - Margaret (Jones) Stewart
Daughter - Elizabeth (Stewart) Mitchell
Son - John Morgan Stewart
Son - William A. Stewart
_________________

Joseph Stewart born Virginia
Wife (2.) - Elizabeth born Tennessee
Daughter - Mary A. J. Stewart
Daughter - Margerette A. Stewart
Daughter - Sarah Stewart
Son - Lewis Stewart [Lewis Hardgrave Stewart]
_________________

It has been speculated that "Parsons" is the maiden name of Elizabeth born Tennessee, second wife of Joseph Stewart born Virginia. This speculation is because of the following census, and the Sarah A. Parsons which is listed in the family of Joseph Stewart. It was assumed that Sarah A. Parsons must be the sister of Elizabeth born Tennessee? Sarah A. Parsons in the following census is probably a servant girl but future research is need on her, as to her identity.

CENSUS: 1850 Johnson County, Arkansas census. Spadra Township. Stamped Page Number, 155. September 28, 1850
Joseph Stewart Age, 50. (m) Mill wright. 300. Born Virginia.
Elizabeth [Stewart] Age, 24. (f) Born Tennessee.
William A. [Stewart] Age, 14. (m) Born Arkansas.
Mary A. J. [Stewart] Age, 3. (f) Born Arkansas.
Margerette A. [Stewart] Age, 8/12 (f) Born Arkansas.
Sarah A. Parsons Age, 20. (f) Born Tennessee.
---------

The following census shows that second wife, Elizabeth born Tennessee, is no longer listed with the Joseph Stewart family in 1860 and it is assumed that she is deceased. The following 1860 census also shows one male child of the union of Joseph Stewart born Virginia, and deceased wife Elizabeth born Tennessee. This one male child of the union of Joseph Stewart and Elizabeth is Lewis Hardgrave Stewart. Hardgrave is an uncommon name for ones middle name, but it is a common surname in Johnson County, Arkansas. It is wondered if Hardgarve might be the maiden name of Elizabeth born Tennessee, second wife of Joseph Stewart born Virginia?

CENSUS: 1860 Johnson County, Arkansas census. Perry Township. Stamped Page Number, 1075-B. July 3, 1860
Joseph Stewart Age, 63. (m) Mill Wright 320/425 Born Virginia.
Mary [Stewart] Age, 12. (f) Born Arkansas.
Margaret [Stewart] Age, 10. (f) Born Arkansas.
Sarah [Stewart] Age, 6. (f) Born Arkansas.
Lewis [Stewart] Age, 3. (m) Born Arkansas.
Gilletha Hankis [Hankins] Age, 32. (f) Born Tennessee.
Mary [Hankis] [Hankins] Age, 12. (f) Born Arkansas.
Sarah [Hankis] [Hankins] Age, 9. (f) Born Arkansas.
Lucinda [Hankis] [Hankins] Age, 7. (f) Born Arkansas.

George M Campbell

cjcude — 29 Jan 2008 10:55:12 GMT

Still looking for lineage on George M. Campbell; my ggf. He may have been born in Georgia rather than Tennessee. I think the "M" is for Monroe. He lived in Arkansas and bore children there with F. T.??. His name was misspelled as Cammell, Cambell and Candel. I think "F" may have been Florence but that's just a hunch. My grandfather named a daughter Florence T. but I don't know what the T represents. I think he lived in W.Fork Township, Washington County, Arkansas as well as Crawford County before being in Johnson County, TX in 1880. He died between 1880 and 1900. Hope to hear from someone...CaroleJanCampbell

This bible is the KEY to missing names in my genealogy research anyone with information please contact me. I don't know where else to go with this or who else to ask as I do not know where to even look for this bible being Lloyd Frazier passed away in 1997.

The Smith Family of Coal Hill, AR

mdfreels — 2 Dec 2007 12:52:43 GMT

I'm researching all of the descendants of David Editon Smith and Sarah Gallymore, both Cherokees.

David & Sarah had several children. Known children: James Claiborn, John Calvin, & Sarah Ann. There was a Richard and William in the 1850 census, but it is unclear if they are sons or grandsons.

Also, there was a James Wilkinson Smith living nearby. A search of the land patent records indicated that he lived next to David.

I'm inclined to believe they are related, but am unsure just how.

I'm needing some land records researched in Johnson Co., AR and would appreciate any help whatsoever.

Would love to hear from all descendants.

I descend through Sarah Ann Smith, who married William Patterson Grider. Both were in Cooke Co., TX in 1900 living with children. But by 1910, their children's family had moved to Oklahoma and Sarah & Wiliam were not found.

Will respond to all who write me.

Rejeanna — 8 Apr 2000 12:00:00 GMT

Following are the people I am related to in Johnson Co.: William J. Ross married Melissa Fraser, their daughter was Senoria C. Ross. Senoria married John F. Boley. They had several children one of them was my Grandfater, William Claude Boley. William (Claude) married Daisy Hill. Daisy's Father's name was John Hill. Her Mother's name was Cora Freeman. These folks are on my Mother'side. My paternal Grandfather was Lee Alfred Phillips. He married Etta Augusta Pierce (she died in her early twenties). Lee's parents were James F. Phillips, and Cordelia Thursetta Price. I have no other information on the Pierce's. They all resided around either Larmar, or in the Hills. (1890's - ?) Most of this group migrated either into OK, or MO. This is a tough group to research! Help!

kristen44012 — 4 Nov 2006 8:17:38 GMT

I am looking for information on a man by the name of M.H. Smelley, can anyone help me with this? M.H. Smelley is not found in any census's, yet there is a marriage license for M.H. Smelley to my Gr Gr Grandmother Zilpha Frazier. I have been looking for information on this family for a very long time and haven't been able to find out anything about them.
My Great Great Grandmother Zilpha Frazier was married first to James Milton Williams (son of William Stephen "Steve" Williams & Cordelia (King) Williams), James & Zilpha divorced before 1896, in most likely Bradley Co Arkansas. On June 3 1896 there is a marriage license for M.H. Smelley and Zilpha Frazier, this marriage was preformed by Isaac Newton Frazier, who was also Zilpha's brother. By 1910 Zilpha is back with James Milton Williams listed as his wife, in 1900 Zilpha and M.H. Smelley are not found. I do not know if there were any children associated with this marriage, if there were I have never heard of them at all.
If anyone can help me on this it would be greatly appreciated.

Hays Chapel vs Coal Hill

arleene20001 — 14 Mar 2002 5:05:40 GMT

I have conflicting info. I was told my father was buried near his mother in Coal Hill Cemetery. No one seemed to be able to find mention of either of them. Now one of my sister's says he is actually in Hays Chapel Cemetery. My father's name was Leonard D Pritt and he died in 1994, he is supposed to be buried near his mother, Johnnie W Hook. I don't know the date of her death but it was when my dad was still a child ( he was born in 1932). If anyone has any info please let me know. Thanks!

Looking for a grave around Clarksville, possibly Sparda

pjmclaug1 — 17 Jun 2007 3:51:01 GMT

My great, great, great grandfather is buried somewhere around there. His name was Cassady (could be spelled differently) -- first name Loyd, Calvin, LA, or William Calvin. It's listed differently in different records. He was a steamboats-man and died on the boat somewhere between 1870 and 1880, we believe.

If anyone has access to records for this cemetery or other cemeteries in the area or visits there, any information would be greatly appreciated.
