HARTWICK

I am searching for information on the HARTWICK family. I am working on two different lines that may connect at a point, but have not been able to tie together yet. M. Brady HARTWICK married Lizzie Acre, dates unknown, whose children were Blake and Willis HARTWICK. The other line goes back to Leonard and Dahlia HARTWICK born 1775 in N. Carolina. They moved to northern Faulkner County where their son Jacob HARTWICK owned a mill around Guy. I would like to find out who M. Brady's parents, brother's/sister's were and any known information about Leonard and Dahlia's children, grandchildren, etc. Contact by mailing address is Jennifer Russell, P.O. Box 145, Springfield, AR 72157.

Al Ragsdale July 25, 1998

RAGSDALE

My grandfather,Thomas James RAGSDALE,was born in Logan Co,Ark in 1880. His parents were John Benjamin(b.1851 Ark)Ragsdale and Nancy Ann Underwood(b.1855 Ark). His paternal grandparents(by LDS records) were Benjamin(b.1824 Tn,maybe Hickman Co)Ragsdale and Caroline(b.1826 Tn)Stovall. From other records, I believe that Benjamin's father was William (b.1782 NC) who was next to him in 1850 Johnson Co,Ark. William's line goes back to Godfrey in the 'Elijah Ragsdale' book by Mrs.June Hart Wester. Thomas married Clara Lee BARNES in Sequoyah Co,I.T. about 1904. They 'separated' or 'divorced' about 1915. He joined the Army in 1918 from Groal,Ok(I have not been able to find where this was located-may be Grove?).He was in Lamar Co,Tx in 1920,shown as 'divorced'. She remarried in Faulkner Co,Ark in 1918 to James Tom POTTS. He moved to El Paso Co,El Paso,Tx after 1920. Thomas died in 1943 in Grant Co,Bayard,NM. I have researched county records and written to all nearby counties to Sequoyah Co,Ok but there seems to be no record of their marriage or 'divorce'. I am looking for descendants of Thomas's siblings:Louisa Caroline Farris(m.Van Farris),George Washington(m.Maud Lowery),John Malachi(m.Annie Bloodseal),Martha Elizabeth(m.Henry Pharis,Curt Moore,William Underwood),and Henry Benjamin(m.Iva Reeder).

Searching for any descendants of Burrell, Nathaniel and Seward Geer. Unsure as to if any of these actually lived in Faulkner County, but Burrell owned land in Faulkner County which was evidently adjacent to land he purchased in Van Buren County.

I am in search of James Anderson Webb's first wife who apparently left him with their son Steven Thomas (may have been Virginia but I'd like to know for sure). He retrieved the boy later and raised him with the second wife, Elizabeth Pearson. There is another son of the first wife by the name of Sorris Nathaniel Webb that has eluded me for the moment as well! The third wife and my great-grandmother is Ona Mae Harlow, b 1850 IN (parents unknown at the moment), and was a midwife in that area. If I can be of service, let me know!

INGRAM

I would have posted this but the USGenWeb Auto Query Form is disabled. I didn't know where else I could get the desired information except from this e-mail address. In June of 1997, Robbie Burnett submitted "History of Enola". The document is written by Debrill Ingram. In the document she mentions an A. G. Ingram and his wife Mary as being her great-grandparents. I have been trying for some time to find some information on some Ingrams in Arkansas when I ran across this record yesterday. I know that my great great grandmothers' name was Georgian Ingram (born on Nov. 28, 1851 in Arkansas) and that her parents were an A. G. and Mary Ingram. Could these be the same people? Please help? The record found under Faulkner County, Arkansas archived records does not mention an address or an e-mail and I would be very interested in contacting the person or persons responsible for the document? I e-mailed to an address that was on the same page as the document I found and this is the response that I received: I'm sorry but I'm no longer the Ark. Archives Volunteer. The present volunteer is Peggy; there have been at least 3 volunteers besides us in the past that I know of; I don't know who uploaded the file!!! If the info isn't on the file, I really doubt any of us could tell you where it came from since whoever's in charge generally gets about 30-40 e-mails a day about the archives or with files for it; there's just no possible way to remember all of them!!! What I would suggest is posting to the Ark. mail list; see if you get a response there. Most of the people who've submitted info to the Archives is on that list. Good luck! Bonnie How would I go about posting to the Ark. mail list? I have subscribed to the KYJacksonPurchase mail list through rootsweb and have that e-mail address, but I just now started looking in Arkansas for another side of my family. Do you have any information on some Ingrams living in Faulkner County. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You Mary Grist

I am trying to locate any records of my grandparents, Emma Castleberry Brown and Milton Brown and their ancestors. My father, Roy Rogers Brown, was born in or around Republic, Arkansas, in July 1916. I know that Milton Brown was quite a bit older than Emma; I believe that she was his 3rd wife. Milton was a Confederate soldier; my grandmother was collecting a Confederate Widow's pension when she died in the spring of 1969. Milton died probably in 1918; my father was 2 years old at the time. There were several other children in addition to Roy -- Sam, Fay, Elva, Ina, and Lena. My father had at least one half-sister that I know of, Donnie (Donice?). Ina is the only surviving child, and I don't think she is in good health. She hasn't responded to my last two letters and seems reluctant to pass along any genealogical information. Roy, my father, died in December of 1949. I know there were many Castleberrys in the area. If anyone can be of any assistance to me, I will be very grateful. WE have my mother's side of the family traced back to the early 1700s, and I would love to have any information about my father's side. I am just beginning to learn about genealogical research, so I need lots of help.
