LEE/NORSWORTHY
According to our family history, my grandmother, Mary Alice Lee and my grandfather, William Hawkins Norsworthy were married in Union County, Arkansas, in 1888. I do not have any info re my grandmother or her family. She died approx 1907 when my father was two years old. Any information you have regarding her or her family would be appreciated. I think they may have been in Texas when she died but have not confirmed that yet. Thank you, Barbara

LOWE/HAYS
My father-in-law is 80 years old and has been searching for information on HIS father for many years. Perhaps someone reading this could help us out:
Thomas Henry LOWE married Elena Hays in El Dorado June 19, 1913. TH was a millwright, born in 1882 (?) and came from Piedmont, Missouri(?). Foye L. Lowe was born Jan. 1918, the youngest of three, and before the year was up, TH and Elena were divorced. He disappeared and was young enough to go on and have another family. Dad just wants to find out where his father was buried and anything else he can find out about him. He has one picture of Thomas Henry and his younger brother. If it would help at all, I could probably arrange to have it scanned. Another thing, if anyone has access to marriage records, could you find out anything about TH that I don't already have? Things like TH's real name, dob, place of birth, things like that. We have really turned up nothing. All help would be appreciated. Thanks. Linda Lowe

MOSS/SMITH/BARTON
I am seeking evidence for the existence of William Frank (or F. W.) MOSS and his parents. He married Ella Lee SMITH of Magnolia, Columbia Co. in the early 1890's. There is no record of their marriage in Columbia Co.; so I am searching the surrounding counties. F. W. & Ella had one son, William Frank, Jr. in 1893. Sometime between 1893 & 1896, F. W. died in his 20's, possibly of pneumonia. Ella married #2, Richard Rufus 'Rufe' BARTON in 1896. Rufe was supposedly a close friend of F. W. MOSS. F. W. had a brother with the initials, N. C. (or H. C.) The family talk is that the original MOSS name was actually O'MOSS, but it is not known when the name change came. My desire: could someone check the courthouse marriage records for Union Co. for F. W. & Ella (SMITH) MOSS in the early 1890's. Rev. Steven J. Porter

AILES/REYNOLDS
Searching for info on Mary Jane AILES born 1838 in AR. She married James W. REYNOLDS in 1854 in Union Co. AR. The only AILES in that county at the time was Walker and Martha Ailes. Have discovered they were not her parents, due to Walker's will. Am sure she was family but don't kown how. James REYNOLDS was born 1816 in MS. Moved to AR with bros: John and William and maybe mother Rebecca. They all moved on to LA except Rebecca(maybe she died, being born in 1779 in NC) The REYNOLDS seem to have ties to the WEST NEAL FAMILY and a Mary WILLIAMS. My ancestors, James and Mary Jane AILES REYNOLDS moved from LA to TX where they where they lived the rest of their lives.

CARTER/BLACK
I am seeking info on the CARTER Family Cemetary which is supposedly near Strong as is the Carter School> W. J. CArter was the original homesteader. His son Robert took over the homstead after W.J. was killed in the Civil War.
Also seeking info on the Corinth Methodist Church which was near Strong. If the church no longer exists does anyone know where the church records are kept. Anyone with info on GANDY's landing on the Oauchita River? How about the name BLACK? Supposedly Robert Johnson BLACK was a founder of EL Dorado and a plaque bearing his name is someshere in the city. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
Am seeking information on the Corinth Methodist Church which is supposedly near strong. If it no longer exists would like to know where the church records are kept. Also seeking info on the Carter family cemetery near Strong. Also Carter School? W.J. Carter was original homesteader. Was killed in the civil war so his son R.J. tended the homestead. In Eldorado, I am told that there is a plaque naming Robert J. Black as one of the founders. Does anyone know anything about this.
Any info on Gandy's Landing on the Ouachita River? Thanks . Arlis
