Who was James SPRY? Where did he really come from? James came to work on the farm of
Hugh Wesley ALLEN before 1888. He married Hugh's daughter, Eugenia Cornelia Allen, (born
March 15, 1868 in Hempstead) abt 1888. The family listed his birth place as North Carolina
(maybe) and birth date 1858. After marriage, they lived in Saratoga and Foreman, Arkansas. In
11900, he worked in Indian Territory. He worked as a lumber man after leaving the farm. He
left the family around 1903. How would you trace someone who led a transient life in lumber
camps?

I do know the GILLIAMS came from France. They were Hugenots and fled to Switzerland
maybe Holland and finally ended up in England. I think. Then America. The name was
pronounced Jul-i-om. They were Angelican not Saxon. Solamon Henry was born in either North
or South Carolina. He was born 10-20-1810 and died in Arkansas around Mineral Springs or
Brownstown 2-21-1879. His first child:Emily Isabella born in SC. 2nd: Sarah Ann 1835 in AL.
3rd Lousie Jane 1832 AL, 4th William J. 4-23-1838 in MS, fifth Joseph 1841 in MS. Sixth.
Lucretia Elizabeth in 1844 in MS. 7th Martha Dorinda in 1848 in MS, 8th Arminda c. in 1854 in
AR and 9th Daniel Henery in 1856 in AR. All married in AR. Two married Cabaniesses. Who
were Solomon Henry Gilliam's parents, grandparents? What was Lucretias last name. It should be
on a marriage bond or census. Solomon and Lucretia they were listed in AR in 1848
1854 with his family in Saina Township in AR in 1850

In looking at the death of the NATIONS children in Hempstead Co., in 1859, I find that six
Nations children died within 2 1/2 months of each other, four within two days. One Martha died
on March 5, 1859, one Mary died on May 3, 1859, one Thomas died on May 15, 1859, and three
Nathaniel, John, and Margaret all died on May 16, 1959. Does anyone know what happened in
Hempstead County about then that would cause deaths of this type? Thinking it may have been
some kind of epidemic. Any ideas???
