Hi Kathy,

Before hiring a researcher, you'll want to check the significant online resources available for Jackson County genealogy.

The County Clerk office has a online index of all marriage records for the county - http://www.jacksoncountyclerk.0catch.com/ .

The USGenWeb Jackson County website - http://www.rootsweb.com/~arjackso/ - has many resources.

Also, the USGenWeb Archives page for Jackson County - http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/ar/jackson/jackson.html - has almost every cemetery inventory currently held in book form at the library, and many other records.

Good luck!
