I am looking for the resting place of Benjamin WIGLEY who was the brother of
George Washington WIGLEY. I am told that Benjamin and his daughter, Clarcie
SCRUGGS are buried at Nebo Cemetery near Waltreak. However, I have not been
able to locate Nebo Cemetery and have been told it is not in use and all
grown up. Clarcie was the only daughter of Belle WALTER-WIGLEY-WOODARD.
Any information on any of these ancestors would be appreciated.

I am looking for information on my HARE family. It may also be spelled
HAIR. Joseph HARE married Mary/Molly NANCE, he was from KY and she
from MO. Anna Etta HAIR was born in Waldron, AR on February 18, 1874.
There were 9 more siblings. Their names were Mary, Jane, Eldridge,
George, Lee, Stephen, John William, Benjamin Franklin, and Louis
Hershall. I have some birth dates for a few, but the others I have
nothing. I am wondering if Anna was the only one born there. Any
information on either surname would be appreciated. I don't know how
long they lived there.

I am searching for the parents of a lady named Beda Ann WILSON. She married
John Wesley SNOWDER on 9 May 1888 in Sebastian County, AR. The marriage license
states that she was a resident of Scott County. The license reflects her age as
16. I have never been able to locate or trace a family by that name in Scott
County. The 1880 census of Scott Co., does not reflect a WILSON family that
would have her as a household member. Supposedly, she is of Indian descent?
Anyone having knowledge or information in regards to a WILSON family with a
young female named Beda or any near spelling I would appreciate a source or
where to look. Thank you.
