MYSTERY: I cannot locate the name of Arlie Cook's wife, my great-grandmother. She was born about 1904 (give or take a year or two), and married 1927 in Kingston. She lived in Kinsgton at least until my grandmother Opal Marie Cook was born in 1932. I remember hearing my grandmother say, a few years before she died, that her mother had died when she was young, I think when she was eight but I am not possitive, I know she was dead before my grandmother married in 1948. Her first name might of been Vinnie or Vennie. From What my grandmother said her father's name might of been William Arlie Cook, or just Arlie Cook, or William Cook, and the other name might of been a nickname. I am looking for any information on her, a last name before she married, her parents names, did she have siblings, dates, where she was from, etc.

MYSTERY: I know that my g.g. grandfather, Elias M. Witter was a respected businessman, apparently a hero so that Witter was named after him.I think he and other members of the family are buried in the Kilgore Cemetery. I bought the book, History of Witter, Arkansas and was disappointed to find he never lived there, but he was mentioned. Given that he was apparently well known, why can't I find out anything about him or the Kilgore Cemetery?

MYSTERY: Who was the husband of Jane (Elizabeth Jane) ARNOLD? Her maiden name was JORDAN and her first husband was Thomas CAUTHON who may have died before she went to Arkansas. Her 1923 Arkansas death certificate states that she had been in the state for 50 years and in place of death (Brush Creek, Washington County)for 30 years. She hasn't been found in the 1880 census, but she is in the 1900 with her sister and family in Brush Creek Township. In 1901 papers in Hickory County, Missouri (her location in 1870) give Madison County, Arkansas as her location. Any help appreciated.
