New Hope Baptist Church

comexp — 20 Jun 2008 5:19:11 GMT

I am doing research on my ancesters and have run across meeting notes from the New Hope Baptist Church in Lawrence Co., AR in the Dallas Public Library. In the copy of the book that I have seen, there are no pages between 1875 and 1905. I am trying to tie an ancestor Robert McMillen to one of the two McMillen families listed in the records prior to 1875. He was born about 1863 and I believe he is a son of Addison and Priscilla McMillen (McMelon) who are listed in the minutes at various dates from 1852.

My question to you is, is there a copy of the New Hope Baptist Church Minutes more complete that the copy that I have seen? Are there pages in the 1875 to 1890 time frame?

My email address is comexp@msn.com.

John MITCHELL & Nannie COWAN

kasjen1 — 5 Mar 2008 1:23:41 GMT

Here is what I know:
John MITCHELL (b.1861 in Texas or Missouri d.1921 in Arkansas buried in Portia, Arkansas)
Married in Nov. 1888 to
Nancy E. COWAN (Nannie) (b.1861 in Illinois d.1929 in Arkansas also buried in Portia, Arkansas)
They had seven children: Mack, McKinley, Russell, Spencer, William, Florence and Mary Lee.
They also lived in Trumann, Craighead County, Arkansas.
Here is what I might know...
(This was gathered from old memories, family rumors, and a Great Uncle with a semi-reliable memory.)
John’s dad was also a John, born in Missouri and he might have married a Cherokee. It was also said that he was a fur trader on the Mississippi River.
Nannie’s dad was also a John, born in Illinois and may have married a BROWN, also born in Illinois.
Rumor was also that their boys went west. Some say the circus others say one worked on the Hoover Dam.
Here is what I would like to know....
Everything! Well, ok, maybe I can’t know everything, but I would like all the information I can get! I would love to know where the boys went and where the Indian fits into the line. My great grandma (Mary Lee) always said she was mixed blood (with Indian), but she would never discuss it any further. She said it was considered a disgrace to be mixed. My grandma – her daughter always said Mary Lee was ½ Indian; of course you couldn't always believe what she said, but, it would be nice to know for sure.
Thank you in advance if you can help!!

1915 Tornado in Imboden, Lawrence Co., AR

SocketTome — 3 Jun 2007 5:46:02 GMT

I'm looking for information about the tornado that hit Imboden in 1915. I did find a blurb from "The History of Imboden, Part II" that said McLeod's history mentions that 1 person was killed in that tornado. Does anyone know if the McLeod history names the person? My grand-aunt said in her research notes that James Monroe Jones (b. 1878, d. 1915, son of Samuel Jones and Melvina Boar/Boren) was killed during this tornado and that his body was never found.

I'm trying to confirm if James is the person mentioned in the McLeod's history. Does anyone have access to it to check?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I am trying to contact some of my grandfathers brother's families. My grandfather was William Robert Dickey. He and his next younger brother Joseph A. Dickey were in Boone County, AR for the 1900 census. My grandparents went to TX but his brothers remain in AR. Joseph A. married in Lawrence Co. AR as did two of his younger brothers. Joseph married Lula Ann Ide (1902), Jeff (Jefferson) married Mrs Clara Hutson (1914)and Samuel B. married Ora Teague (1919). I know Samuel moved later to Mo and he married several times. I don't know anything about Charles or James ( I was told he died young). I found Joseph, Jefferson and Samuel on the 1910 census in Lawrence Co. AR. I found a Charles W. in Wichita Falls, TX on the 1910 census but I don't know if this is the right one or not. Although he was the right age and had the right birth place (MO). If anyone has information about these Dickey families please contact me.

TURNER & RUNYAN Probates

judysroots — 23 Jan 2007 9:47:56 GMT

James Marion Turner died Lawrence Co. Ark in 1905, His wife Martha Matilda RUNYAN Turner died there in 1901. Family seek probates for James and Martha in regards to a list of their heirs and possible others named?

Where are these papers filed and are there any books transcribed with this info? or films?

Martha M. Runyan Turner most probably was an heir to her father, Dr. T.A.J. Runyan and it would help to see what she was given after her father's death?

We seek to find who kept the children? (appointed guardians) of the Turner children when they became orphans at the death of their father in 1905? Was their property managed or sold?

Ollie Mae TURNER Hugg was a child of James and Martha and she could not read or write other than to sign her name. She is said to have only a couple of years schooling? With her grandfather being a physican in the county where she lived...what happened to these children Runyan/Turner?
