Several months ago, when I was sabmitti.ng some material for publication in 'The Arkansas Family Historian', I wrote to our Editor: "Today I have given an application for membership in our Society to Mr. Bennett Garlington of Kingsland, Cleveland County, Arkansas,
and I do hope he decides to join us. He ",HI make usa good member, as he knows so much
about the old fami1ies along the Dallas-·Cleveland border, and particularly in those townships
that were taken from Dallas County when Cleveland (formerly Dorsey) County was formed.
He can contribute much to our Soci.ety." (Some of the families he has done extensive research
on are John Cook, Wright., Garlington, Garner, Childers, Chesier and Burford.)
Mr. Garlington has joined us, and my prediejj.on that he would contribute has come true.
He is with the A rkansas Forestry Commission and knows the location of many almost forgotten family cemeteries, and places where there are just two or three or a si.ngle grave, in
places that were once part of a homesi:ead or plantation. We agreed that if he would gather
this information, I would type and edi'!; ~t for him. The names have been alphabetized only by
family surnames in an effort to keep inscripti.ons together as th.e graves lie in the cemetery.

TAYLOR - WALKER - LEWIS
I need information on Thomas Taylor, born during the Civil War era in Laurel Co., Ky.
His brothers, John Henry Taylor, 1870, and William David Taylor, 1864; sisters Betty Ann
Sasser and Nancy Robinson. The father Speed Taylor and wife, Ellen Yaden, brought these
children from Kentucky to Capart, Ark. ca 1878. They lived around Boxley, Swain, Capart,
Coal Hill and Red Star, Ark., where Rev. Speed Taylor preached .. Later years Thomas took
his family to Oregon, but he didn't stay very long. He wrote "home" that they were leaving
Oregon for "home", presume Newton or Madison Co., Ark., but no member of the family
ever heard of or saw them. I have no dates nor places pertaining to this family. I guess
this was about 1900. I desire correspondence on any of these.names.
