From: Ray Weathers
E-Mail address: rrw@htcomp.net

Query: I am RAY WEATHERS, son of RICHARD OMER WEATHERS, son of DAVIE RUSSIE WEATHERS, son of REASON & MELISSA CAROLINE HUNTER. She was the daughter of HARDY "HORSE" HUNTER & JANE CLARK. Jane Clark was a daughter of BENJAMIN CLARK, SR. My father and I are the only ones named above who did not live in Arkansas. My g-grandfather, REASON was married in DeQueen, AR, in 1850. My grandfather, DAVID RUSSIE, was, as far as we know, born in or near DeQueen. HARDY HUNTER, known as "HORSE" because of his horse trading activities throughout the South, was on the Armstrong Choctaw Indian roll of 1830-31. Census records have shown him in Arkansas. He later was in Red River County, Texas, where he married Jane Clark, one of the older daughters of Benjamin Clark, SR., and a sister of James Clark who founded the town of Clarksville. Now for my question: Do we have anybody in common? Regardless of your answer, a prompt reply would be appreciated. I noticed that you have a 76109 address in Ft. Worth. That would be somewhere in the vicinity of Southcliff Baptist Church, would it not. Our daughter lives on Seminary Drive, in Seminary Village, across from Southwestern Baptist Seminary where she is a graduate student as well as a teacher at the Seminary South Assembly of God Church's Harvest School (name was changed this semester). We lived in South Hills before moving here in 1975.

Query: I wrote you the other day, but am not sure the letter was sent. I am a bit of a novice on the internet, so no telling where I forwarded your letter!

I am seeking information about my gg grandfather/mother William and Elizabeth Ann Driskill Holcomb. They were from Union Co., Lafayette Township. Wm. is on the l840 census and secured land patents in l842, 45. Elizabeth is listed as widow in l850. Is there a catagorized list of cemeteries and inhabitants for Union County and Clark Counties?

I am not, of course, asking you to research for me, merely point me in the correct direction. Cemeteries and obituaries seem logical places. Thank you.

Query: Am searching for descendants of Grahams who lived in Clark Co. at one time. James Finley Graham & Mary Hooper Williams Graham lived in Hollywood in 1880 with their children Brantley Gillespie, Robert Edwin, Dale, Virgil and Grace.

Dale Graham was named for Dr. Dale who was the preceptor for JFG when he went to medical school in LR. After JFG finished school in 1888 the family moved to Malvern, AR, then to Hot Springs, AR. Robert Edwin's family lived in Gurdon, AR for a number of years and he worked for Missouri Pacific RR.

JFG died in Nov. 1907 and according to the funeral home records he was buried in Cave Hill Cem. which later became Rose Hill Cem. in Hope, AR. However efforts to locate the grave have been in vain and I have also been unable to find out when his wife died.

Query: I can't figure out John H. Nelson. John Whitney Elkins had two sons with his second wife, Citty Fogle -- David and Ralph. But John H. Nelson is on a deed 1856 Clark County (along with previously handled deed for Ralph and David) having to do with relinquishing dower rights on property which had belonged to John Whitney Elkins. How did dower rights work in Arkansas?
