Baker

I am trying to find out about my family during the Civil War years. My great-great grandfather -- Littleton Baker homesteaded land at Big Flat in 1855. He had at least two sons -- William Layfayette Baker and James Moses Baker that served in the Civil War. They were in the 3rd Arkansas Calvary Union from 1864 on, but rumor has it that they served in the Confederate army before that. I would like to know about their service in the Confederate army -- what battles they fought in -- where they served and so on. One of Littleton's daughters married a Lawrence and they had 4 sons in the War also. I am new to genealogy and don't know where to start. If someone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

Boaz

Seeking information about Charles R. (Radcliff) BOAZ, d. Baxter Co. late 1880s.  He was an incorporator of the town of Mountain Home and apparently the first to discover lead in Baxter County.  Wife's name Margaret (Margreth); five children.  Originally a Baptist but a member of the "M.E." (Episcopal?) church at death.  Family legend has it that he was in the timber business and a farmer, but local newspaper obituary mentions that he died in reduced circumstances.  Appreciate any info about his life while living in Baxter Co., and whether his widow stayed there and remarried.

Borders

HELP!! I have been unable to locate much information on ALBERT ROBERT BORDERS, born 1870 in Arkansas or Indiana. Family legend has it that Albert's father was named James Borders and died in 1873. Family legend also says that Albert was part Indian. Nothing is known of Albert's mother. I have found a James Borders that owned land in BAXTER COUNTY, Arkansas in the 1890s. Maybe James did not die? Or maybe this James is an uncle, brother, etc. Please let me know if you can help.

Gist, Durham,

My grandfather Franklin Garrett DURHAM and his father, Alfred DURHAM always talked about the time they lived in Mountain Home, approximate time probably 1990-1910.  Does anyone have a record of them in Mountain Home or Baxter County?  Franklin Garrett DURHAM married Sara GIST, daughter of John Gist of Baxter County, in approximately 1910.  Is there a record of their marriage?

Landcaster, Shehorn, Longster, Stratton

I have been researching the Shehorn family. My grandmother Mary Stratton's mother was Winnie Shehorn, born in 15 July 1887 in Baxter Co. She married a F.M. Landcaster on 23 Nov 1902. She had a baby boy that died and Mr. Landcaster or Longston died suddenly in some sort of accident.  She, then pregnant, married my great-grandfather, Steve Stratton, in May of 1905.  My grandmother was born on 8 July 1905.  Winnie, I was told, died suddenly after coming home from the store in Hutcheson, Kansas.  Grandma said she collapsed with blood coming from her ears, nose, mouth.  She doesn't remember the date. If anyone can help me regarding the Shehorns I would really appreciate it.  I was also told by grandma that she had a brother named Walter who had a wife Alice that died making lye soap.  All she remembers about Winnie's mom is that they called her grandma Sinor.  I have found a Marion and a John who I believe were her siblings. Thanks so much Dianna E-Mail address DLD3462@aol.com

Is there anyone who has access to a 1900 Census for Baxter County?  Are there any NAPIER surnames listed in this Census? The 1910 Census may also list the Napier surname. Sometime between 1900 and 1917, the Napier family, parents and family of William "Dewey" Napier, moved to Williamson County, IL.  William D. Napier, as listed in the "Williamson County in the World War" from Hurst, IL, was born in Mountain Home, Arkansas, and was 19 when he enlisted in 1917. From this, he was born about 1898 or 1899.

Phaby,

Since my original inquiry December 13, 1997, Vera of the Baxter County Historical Society has confirmed that my Grandfather, John Phaby, was married in Baxter County Arkansas July 4, 1903 to Clara Fout.  I have also obtained a copy of my Grandfather's death certificate which indicates his parents were Thomas Phaby and Nancy Brown Cook and that John Phaby was born March 15, 1880 in Laclede County, Missouri. The birth parent information for my grandfather was provided by my father and it's conceivable that a spelling error of the name "Phaby" occurred with my grandfather. One possible alternate spelling is "Pheby".  If anyone can help with information concerning Thomas and Nancy Brown Phaby or Pheby, please send me an E-Mail. Thanks.

Shehorn, Landcaster, Longster, Stratton

I have been researching the Shehorn family. My grandmother Mary Stratton's mother was Winnie Shehorn, born in 15 July 1887 in Baxter Co. She married a F.M. Landcaster on 23 Nov 1902. She had a baby boy that died and Mr. Landcaster or Longston died suddenly in some sort of accident.  She, then pregnant, married my great-grandfather, Steve Stratton, in May of 1905.  My grandmother was born on 8 July 1905.  Winnie, I was told, died suddenly after coming home from the store in Hutcheson, Kansas.  Grandma said she collapsed with blood coming from her ears, nose, mouth.  She doesn't remember the date. If anyone can help me regarding the Shehorns I would really appreciate it.  I was also told by grandma that she had a brother named Walter who had a wife Alice that died making lye soap.  All she remembers about Winnie's mom is that they called her grandma Sinor.  I have found a Marion and a John who I believe were her siblings. Thanks so much Dianna E-Mail address DLD3462@aol.com

Stratton, Shehorn, Landcaster, Longster,

I have been researching the Shehorn family. My grandmother Mary Stratton's mother was Winnie Shehorn, born in 15 July 1887 in Baxter Co. She married a F.M. Landcaster on 23 Nov 1902. She had a baby boy that died and Mr. Landcaster or Longston died suddenly in some sort of accident.  She, then pregnant, married my great-grandfather, Steve Stratton, in May of 1905.  My grandmother was born on 8 July 1905.  Winnie, I was told, died suddenly after coming home from the store in Hutcheson, Kansas.  Grandma said she collapsed with blood coming from her ears, nose, mouth.  She doesn't remember the date. If anyone can help me regarding the Shehorns I would really appreciate it.  I was also told by grandma that she had a brother named Walter who had a wife Alice that died making lye soap.  All she remembers about Winnie's mom is that they called her grandma Sinor.  I have found a Marion and a John who I believe were her siblings. Thanks so much Dianna E-Mail address DLD3462@aol.com

Tucker,

My ggrandfather was William E. Tucker born 1844 in Ohio.  Married Hattie Melinda Cornell Sprague, Madison, Wisconsin, April 1864.  They had 3 sons Clarence, Arthur and Fred in Michigan then moved to Baxter/Izard/Fulton Co AR abt 1879 where 3 girls were born Lulu, Grace Edna and Birdie Avis.

I believe Birdie was born near Advance, Baxter July of 1886. William died Huron, Izard, September 1900 and Hattie died 1907 Huron, Izard. Both buried Corrinth Cemetery, Fulton (I think) just East of Wild Cherry, AR.  Arthur was my grandfather. He married Sara Ann Lackey (born Norfork, Baxter 1887, died 1951) August 1902. Arthur and Sarah had 2 children before they were divorced abt 1907. The first was William Edward "Ed" Tucker (July 1903-Apr 1968), my father.

My mother is Geneva Kate Adams daughter of Joseph Morton Adams and Sara Viola Smith, daughter of Calvin Smith and Katy Hamm. Joseph Morton was son of James Davis Adams (Of Mountain Home, Baxter) and his second wife. James Davis was the son of James who was the son of another James. The elder James was married to Agnes Wilson, daughter of Matthew Wilson of York County, PA. (now Adams county).

I am just getting started in a determined way in the Tucker family tree. If anyone has any info about William, Hattie or any of their children (or anyone else Adams, Lackey) I would be very appreciative if you would share it with me.

Oldest child is Cassie Ola Davis, born in Huntsville, Ark., Jan. 12, 1881. William "Bill" and Minerva DAVIS are in the 1900 census, showing place of residence as Independence township, Baxter Co. William must have died, for Minerva married L.E. (Labon Epps TUCKER) between 1916 and 1922 and ended up in Sallisaw, OK. She is buried as Manerva Davis. Daughter of William and Manerva, Cassie Ola Davis, married Harvey Jackson Stafford on May 21, 1898, Independence township. Manerva's parents are Gideon WEAVER, and Katie PAUPLIN.

Daughter of William and Manerva, Cassie Ola Davis, married Harvey Jackson Stafford on May 21, 1898, Independence township. Manerva's parents are Gideon WEAVER, and Katie PAUPLIN. (Katie Pauplin's father is Anninias PAUPLIN). Maybe a long lost cousin can help with other family names to connect the DAVIS line back another generation.
