The new format will be slightly taller and wider and allow us more flexibility in the number of pages that we print and permit us to print larger issues when we want or need to do so. In the three years that this quarterly has been produced by committee, it has undergone many changes, and we hope you will bear with us as we try to implement additional improvements. The goal of the editorial board is to send you a quarterly that meets high standards and is attractive, professional appearing, filled with information, easy to read, convenient to carry, and well indexed. In the first article of this issue Joan Carruthers presents corrections to erroneous information previously published in a county history. Her concern that incorrect information would be copied and passed on without investigation until it became accepted as truth is one that all genealogists should have in this age of instant internet proliferation of undocumented information. More and more articles published in journals today deal with disproving previously published and long-accepted misinformation. No one wants to research the wrong ancestors, so let’s share well-documented information when we can and make the necessary corrections when possible. Bill Hanks completed an updated survey of Liberty-Coleman cemetery in Logan County and annotated it where he could with maiden names and information to go with unmarked stones. We would be happy to print any lists you have created or transcribed of voters, cemeteries, obituaries, Bibles, and other records. Curiosity led Rebecca Wilson to research the persons who had filed the Prior Birth Certificates with the earliest birth dates. In the process, she discovered that the earliest birth date on file did not belong to the person who filed the certificate, but to his mother, whose own birth date was written on the certificate by mistake. By using census records, Rebecca discovered that the man was actually born almost forty years later than the certificate indicated. When Rebecca researched the next earliest birth date, Mattie Hudgins proved to be an interesting subject for an article and an ordinary person whose achievements deserved to be published. In the third article, Tommy Carter provides us with an index to the entire 1891 personal property tax list of Calhoun County, Arkansas, as a substitute for the destroyed 1890 census. An 1890 census substitute never was published for Calhoun County, so we are pleased to be able to bring it to you now. There being no extant 1890 tax list, the 1891 was used instead. The value of the personal property tax list over the real estate tax list is that all adult males were required to pay a poll tax, which The Arkansas Family Historian, Volume 45, Number 1 – March 2007 was listed with the personal property tax assessment even if a person owned no property to assess. Four descendancy charts that earned Arkansas Ancestry Certificates appear in this issue. Besides encouraging research in Arkansas families and documentation of sources, applying for Ancestry Certificates is a good way for you to share your ancestry with other AGS members and with people everywhere who read this journal in libraries. Such sharing often results in contacts with distant or long-lost cousins and others researching the same family. We have room now for more book reviews in each issue and will try to bring you as many as possible each quarter. If you are publishing a book, be sure to send us a copy to review. It will help you to publicize your work. You are encouraged to send queries when you join AGS or renew your membership, but you may send them at any time of the year and by e-mail to the [email protected] address if you wish. So keep this publication in mind when you are starting research on a new Arkansas line or have encountered a brick wall in an old one. We would be pleased to hear your opinions about the articles we print and what kinds of articles you would like to read. We would also be pleased to receive your submissions. I hope you will find this issue worth your time. — Susan Boyle The Arkansas Family Historian, Volume 45, Number 1 – March 2007 CORRECTIONS: THE LOGAN FAMILIES OF LOGAN COUNTY, ARKANSAS Joan Methvin Carruthers © In 1987 the Logan County Historical Society published a wonderful memorial to the families of Logan County, Arkansas. That book, Logan County, Arkansas – Its History and Its People, paid tribute to my greatgreat-great-grandfather, Col. James Logan, for whom the county was named. 1 Unfortunately, the three articles presented in the book regarding Logan family descendants contain a number of errors. 2 The book has been distributed to many families, genealogical societies, and libraries, and it is used as a reference for Arkansas Logan family lineage. For more than ten years I have researched my family with the help of AGS member Bill Hanks of Little Rock, Arkansas, who, at the time Logan County, Arkansas was printed, made the contributors of the Logan family articles aware of their lineage errors. Unfortunately, family tradition often trumps documented factual presentation and genealogical history is altered forever. The purpose of this article is to refute the errors in Logan County, Arkansas – Its History and Its People and publish correct information concerning Logan family lineage. Standards of genealogical scholarship and historical accuracy, as well as respect for the memory of their ancestors, demand a truthful presentation of Logan descendants for posterity. Referral to the Descendants chart at the end of this article on page 12 may help you follow the lineage. David and Nancy (Thurmond) Logan migrated from Kentucky to Missouri by 1820. 3 Their son Col. James Logan, for whom Logan County was named, was an adult at that time. David and Nancy Logan moved into Arkansas in the early 1830s, and David died in Crawford © Joan Methvin Carruthers.

In the next paragraph, the author stated correctly that David and Lucy Logan were the parents of John Edward Logan. This couple was actually David Latty Logan and his wife Lucy Johnson. 7 As will be shown in this article, David Latty Logan was the child of Robert Allison Logan and a grandson of Jonathan and Frances (Thurmond) Logan, not David and Nancy Logan. Jonathan was the brother of David Logan and had married the sister of David’s wife. 8 Jonathan settled early in Arkansas Territory before David and his son Col. James Logan left Missouri. 9 Jonathan’s son Robert Allison Logan married Mary S. Ruebottom in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, on 7 March 1816. 10 Robert, known as Ellison Logan, was murdered in 1828 by a man named Skaggs. 11 Mary was left with five young children, three boys and two girls. 12 When he wrote his will in 1830, Jonathan Logan bequeathed a third of his estate to “my grandchildren the children of Robert A. Logan deceased.” 13 The children’s mother Mary (Ruebottom) Logan also was deceased by November 1835 when the administration notice of the estate of Robert A. 4 David Logan obituary, Arkansas Gazette, Little Rock, Arkansas, 1 September 1835, p. 3, col. 6. 5 Arkansas State Land Office Records, Book 19, p. 161, Family History Library [FHL] microfilm 1302807. “James Logan, Jona.

Logan when they went to court in 1845 to have Theodore Sadler removed as their guardian. 15 David Latty Logan, son of Robert Allison and Mary (Ruebottom) Logan, married Lucy C. Johnson 25 December 1845, and they had three children: Mary A. in 1847, Lucy L. in 1853, and John E. in 1855. 16 David Latty Logan was married secondly to Minerva F. Johnson and thirdly to Maryann Waide. 17 He had no children by his second wife and his one known daughter by his third wife was Emma D. Logan born 30 August 1863. 18 She married James Martin Dorrough and they had a son Arthur who acquired the family Bible. 19 Garry Logan’s article contains a photo of the two young sons of his brother Grady standing next to the gravestone monument of David Logan in the Logan Cemetery. These children are described as eighth generation descendants of David Logan. 20 However, since the 1830 will of Jonathan Logan calls his son Robert A. Logan deceased and includes Robert’s children in the distribution of his estate, Robert Allison Logan was in fact a nephew of David Logan, the father of Col. James Logan. Garry Logan’s ancestor John Edward Logan was son of David Latty Logan, grandson of Robert Allison Logan, and great-grandson of Jonathan Logan, the brother of David Logan and uncle of Col. James Logan. The second Logan article in Logan County, Arkansas presents the ancestry of James O. [Jim] Logan who also descended from Jonathan and Frances Logan through their son Robert Allison. However, James O. Logan also claimed in his article that he descended from Col. James Logan, saying “I remember as a boy visiting many times in the log house 14 Arkansas Advocate, Little Rock, Arkansas, 25 December 1835, p. 3 col. 5.

James Logan, the first real home they built after settling on Sugar Creek” [emphasis mine]. 21 Mr. James O. Logan was not a great-grandson of Col. James Logan. In fact, James O. Logan was the son of the same John Edward Logan and his wife Cynthia Ida Dorrough who were Garry Logan’s ancestors. James O. Logan was therefore the grandson of David Latty Logan. His great-grandfather was Robert Allison Logan, not Col. James Logan. James O. Logan appears on the 1900 census of Logan County, Arkansas, with his father John Edward and siblings Otto D., Effa L., John P. and Emma T. Logan. 22 John P. Logan married Bessie O’Neal 23 and their son Pete O’Neal Logan became the father of Garry Logan and his brother Grady. My own dear aunt, Daisy (Logan) Davis submitted the third Logan family article to Logan County, Arkansas. Her article, “John T. Logan” contains several misinterpretations of data that I would like to correct. Our ancestors Col. James Logan and his wife Rachel had ten children who reached adulthood, 24 five of whom were males. Three of those sons died single and without issue. David P. died in 1849, 25 Benjamin died in 1852, 26 and Daniel Boone Logan died in Weaverville, California, in 1855. 27 James’ and Rachel’s surviving sons were Jonathan, who married Sarah Sophia Sadler, 28 and James Jr., who married twice, first to Elizabeth Whitfield and second to Emma Barnett in February 1875. Jonathan Logan is my great-great-grandfather. All of his children were born between 1841 and 1866. 29 His brother James Logan, Jr., who died in 1875, 30 had a daughter, James Estelle, born the day before he died. The several children referred to in James’ obituary included the 21 Logan County, Arkansas: Its History and Its People, 244. John E. Logan household, 1900 U.

Both children were in the custody of James Jr. by 1860, appearing in his household in the census of that year and in 1870. 31 The Jonathan Thomas Logan mentioned in my aunt’s article is my grandfather and he was the son of Jonathan Boone Logan and Susan Adelia Jacobs of Yell County, Arkansas, not Tennessee as stated in the article. 32 Jonathan Boone Logan was the son of Jonathan and Sarah Sophia (Sadler) Logan, also of Yell County, Arkansas. 33 Jonathan Thomas Logan is the only one of the three Logan County residents reported in the book that truly descends from both David Logan and Col. James Logan. Jonathan Logan was born on 28 November 1817 in Wayne County, Missouri, to Col. James and Rachel (Steele) Logan. 34 Rachel Steele was born in Tennessee, 35 and this fact may have led to my aunt’s confusion about the origins of the later generations. Jonathan married Sarah Sophia Sadler 21 June 1840 in Arkansas. 36 Jonathan and Sarah had eleven children, one of them being Jonathan Boone Logan born 3 June 1849 in Riley township, Yell County, Arkansas. 37 In her first sentence my aunt referenced a Sadler family book, 38 but that source was actually the Genealogy of the Lewis Family in America that includes the Sadler family. Sarah Sophia Sadler descends from the John Lewis families of Virginia. The author of the Lewis book names the children of Jonathan and Sarah (Sadler) Logan, but mistakenly calls Jonathan Boone Logan by the name David Boone Logan. 39 A Sadler Bible contains the marriage record of Nancy Rowland to William Sadler 31 James Logan household, 1860 U.S. census, Scott County, Arkansas, population schedule, Revalee township, p. 783, dwelling 591, family 586; NA microfilm M653, roll 50.

Logan Family 9 The Arkansas Family Historian, Volume 45, Number 1 – March 2007 as well as the birth of their daughter, Sarah Sophia and her marriage to Jonathan Logan in 1840. 40 Jonathan and Sarah Sophia (Sadler) Logan and Jonathan Boone and Susan (Jacobs) Logan are buried in the Moore’s Chapel cemetery in Waveland, Yell County, Arkansas. 41 Their beautiful headstones are a tribute to their lives. Jonathan Boone Logan married Susan Adelia Jacobs 11 November 1871 and they had six children. 42 Jonathan [sometimes called John] Thomas Logan was born 6 July 1880, and by 1885 both his mother and father had died. My aunt’s article indicates that at that time, he went to live with his sister Emma and her husband Dr. G. T. Blacknall. 43 But according to Lula Katherine [Warren] Logan, Emma Adelia Logan was about thirteen when her father died and she did not marry G. T. Blacknall until 1890. John Thomas went to Booneville to attend school and Dr. James Nelson Sipe took him in until sometime in 1890 after Emma married Dr. Blacknall. Jonathan Thomas married Lula Kate Warren in Booneville on 21 January 1905. 44 Their six children were named Imogene, Lois Sue, John Warren, Daisy Catherine, Helen Josephine and Rose Marie Logan. The other details of my grandfather’s personal history in Logan County, Arkansas are correct and provide a very brief account of his life in Southern Home and Booneville. I descend through Jonathan’s daughter Rose Marie Logan who married John Manning Methvin, also of Booneville, Logan County, Arkansas. They had three daughters, four grandchildren and two greatgrandchildren. My own grandson continues this lineage and is named Logan Robert Warfield in honor of my mother’s maiden name. 40 Family data, Sadler Family Bible; original owned by Mrs. David M.

At Driggs, turn off Arkansas Highway 109 onto the Revilee Valley Road. After 1½ miles turn right onto Coleman Road. You will immediately see Liberty Church and the cemetery on the right side of the road. There are nearly two hundred marked graves and slightly fewer unmarked graves in the cemetery. The oldest marked grave dates back to 1862. You can no longer see the unmarked graves, because the fieldstones that marked them have been removed for easier mowing. The cemetery is located in Lot 5, in the north half of the northeast quarter of section 3, township 6 north, range 26 west. On 23 August 1912, D. E. Coleman sold one acre and thirty-six rods of land for one Liberty-Coleman Cemetery 13 The Arkansas Family Historian, Volume 45, Number 1 – March 2007 dollar to the Trustees of Liberty Cemetery: D. E. Coleman, T. J. Beard, and W. D. Walker. This deed was recorded in Logan County Deed Book 23, page 511. On 11 June 1947, D. Coleman sold three acres and 125 square feet of land for thirty dollars to the Trustees of Liberty Cemetery: J. W. Beard, Austin Penicks, and W. E. Jones. This deed was recorded in Logan County Deed Book 47 on page 429. In 1947 the church trustees moved Liberty Church about a mile to its present location in front of the cemetery. It originally stood near the old house of Grandma Coleman who gave the land. On 5 August 1881 Mary H. Coleman sold the acre known as Liberty Church grounds for one dollar to the trustees of Liberty Church: D. C. Watkins, J. H. Heathcott, and D. T. Maddox. Mrs. Coleman specified the church had to be “free to the use and enjoyment of all religious denominations” and used for “religious and school purposes.” The original location was in the northwest corner of the southwest quarter of the southwest quarter of section 3, township 6 north, range 25 west. That deed was recorded in Logan County Deed Book F, p. 184.

The State of Arkansas officially began recording birth certificates in February 1914; some cities, notably Fort Smith and Little Rock, recorded births many years earlier. With the advent of the Social Security Act, other social programs and government employment opportunities, people who were born before 1914 needed a birth certificate. In 1942 the state of Arkansas began filing these certificates in a separate set of binders known as the “Priors.” In accordance with Act 1254 of 1995, Arkansas law allows people doing genealogical research to obtain a copy Mattie Hudgins 23 The Arkansas Family Historian, Volume 45, Number 1 – March 2007 Harrison, which is now Boone County. Mattie was the daughter of Dr. John Wesley and Mary Malinda (Byrne) Hudgins. 2 Dr. Hudgins, one of the first physicians in the area, died in 1858 3 when Mattie was about two years old. Dr. Hudgins and Malinda had been married only five years at the time of his death and had three children, Brice Benjamin, Martha Ann and Mary M. According to the 1860 census, Malinda Hudgins and her three children were living near Mt. Pleasant, Carroll County, next door to her parents, Brice and Ann (Rawlston) Byrne. 4 Mattie began her career as an elementary school teacher when she was about eighteen years old 5 and continued teaching for about 54 years. She continued to live with her mother until her mother’s death in 1906. 6 In 1910, Mattie spent a year as a missionary of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, teaching public school at Mt. Scott in southwest Oklahoma. 7 She lived with the Thomas G. Welch family during that time. 8 In 1920 Mattie was living with her niece, Iva Ruth (Bradley) Barnett (Mrs. William V.), and her family on South Cherry Street in Harrison. Also in the household was Mattie’s widowed sister, Mary M. (Hudgins) of a birth certificate, if the person would be at least one hundred years old. In 1999 the Arkansas Genealogical Society began a project to index and publish all of the “Priors” birth certificates. Four different formats of birth certificates were used, each requesting slightly different information. 2 Martha Ann Hudgins, prior birth certificate filing year 1942, binder 1, volume 125, certificate no. 3826, Arkansas Department of Health, Division of Vital Records, Little Rock, Arkansas. 3 A Reminiscent History of the Ozark Region, Goodspeed, 1978, p. 346.

By 1930 Mattie, age 73, was still living on South Cherry Street in her sister Mary’s household. Mattie’s occupation appears to have first been written as “Teacher,” but was marked over with “None.” 10 The 1935 Harrison City Directory lists Mattie’s occupation as “dress goods sales.” Mattie’s 80th birthday coincided with the Arkansas centennial year of 1936. The Harrison Arkansas Times included an article in their Centennial Edition on 11 June 1936 about her birthday party and about her life as a teacher. In the article Mattie reminisced about her early years as an educator in rural Boone County, which began “in the summer of 1874 in a log shanty; the only equipment being benches made of half logs elevated on wooden pegs.” “Indeed, the school houses of the seventies and even in the eighties were crude affairs,” said Miss Mattie in discussing her early experiences as a teacher. “Fact is, everything was crude in those days. Our mode of conveyance consisted principally of ox teams and tar pole wagons. We manufactured practically all of our clothing, even our shoes. Shoes for children were a luxury then at any time except the dead of winter. I do not recall that any of my pupils wore shoes to school during my early terms though many who went to school then were almost men and women. They usually had their pants rolled up while the girls protected their feet from sight by their long skirts. “My first term of school and for a good many years thereafter was only for three months, usually in July, August and September, designed to cover that period of time between the laying of crops and the approach of winter. No provision was made for heating and lighting, the season the houses were used made it unnecessary. “Webster’s Blue Back Speller was the only standard text book and it was that because there were no others available. I instructed in any book that a pupil happened to bring in. The spelling book was used very largely as a reader and for language. The ambition of most parents, or many of them at least, in those days was to have their children read and write. Those two accomplishments placed a person in the educated class. 9 William V.

Mattie Hudgins 25 The Arkansas Family Historian, Volume 45, Number 1 – March 2007 “Great times we had on Friday afternoons in those days. The last afternoon of the week was invariably given over to spelling matches and declamations. Many parents came to witness these programs. All the pupils, big and little, were required to declaim. I have just a very district [sic] recollection of some of the jingles and doggerel that were used for speeches. Sometimes they got them out of readers, sometimes they got them out of almanacs, but many of the smaller children depended on their parents to teach them something. “Among the more classical with the larger pupils were ‘Mary’s Lamb,’ ‘Haste the School Boy,’ ‘The Twinkling Star’ and some others that have found a permanent place in literature. “Athletics in those days consisted of town ball, bull pen, black man and marbles. The girls favorite was the jumping of the grape vine before ropes came into fashion.” 11 When Mattie died, 1 October 1945, her obituary was printed on page one of the Harrison Daily Times. She was buried beside her parents and near her brother and sister in the Hudgins-Hudson Cemetery about ten miles south of Harrison. Harrison Daily Times, October 2, 1945, page 1. Miss Hudgins, Veteran Teacher, Dies Here Miss Mattie Hudgins, 89, veteran school teacher who has 54 years of service to her credit in the schools of Boone county, died at the home, 307 south Cherry street, early today. Every day up to the time of her recent illness, the veteran school teacher took long walks which she credited for keeping her active, and made her way through the business district each day on business with the spryness of a woman half her years. Her father, John Wesley Hudgins, settled in this community long before Harrison was mapped out. Miss Mattie was born June 6th, 1856 at the Hudgins homestead south of town. Educated in the public schools, she taught her first school at what was then known as Spout Spring, near Olvey in the summer of 1874, in a log school house when she was 16 years of age, and continued her teaching career for 54 years with one exception when she served one year as a missionary of the M. E. Church, South at Mt. Scott, Oklahoma from 1910-1911. She taught for 11 “Devotes Life to Teaching ,” Harrison (Ark.)

During her teaching career, Miss Hudgins taught three generations of several families and in later years she had as her pupils children whose grandparents she taught their ABC’s in the seventies. More than 100 of her former pupils came from as far away as Chicago to honor her when she celebrated her 80th birthday. Surviving are seven nieces, Miss Dulcie Bradley with whom she made her home, Miss Ora Hudgins, Mrs. Maud Woods of Pasadena, Calif., Mrs. Obie Taylor and Mrs. W. V. Barnett of Harrison, Mrs. Francis W. Kramer of Chicago, Mrs. Reynold Gardner of Amarilo [sic], Texas; five nephews, Oscar Hudgins of Harrison, John Hudgins of St. Louis, Mo., Walter W. Haywood and Jack Bradley of Fort Smith. Funeral services will be conducted Wednesday afternoon at 3 o’clock at the Christeson Funeral Home by the Rev. William F. Cooley, Methodist pastor. Mary M. Hudgins, Mattie’s sister, married Samuel W. Bradley about 1876. 12 Samuel, born in Georgia March 1854,13 and Mary, born 1858,14 (probably Carroll County, Arkansas) had eight known children, all born in Boone County, Arkansas: Mattie Dulsey July 1877; Walter W. September 1879; Samuel B. January 1883; Troy L. October 1884; John H. February 1887; Ivy Ruth January 1889; Mary L. August 1891; and Marion G. October 1897. Mary died in 1940. By 1877 Mattie’s brother, Brice Benjamin Hudgins (15 August 1854-1 December 1923), 15 managed to obtain enough education to teach school. He was admitted to the bar in 1879, and began a distinguished career in public service in addition to a law practice. “He was prominently mentioned for Governor of the state at one time, when he made a memorable speech in favor of an honest election system which cost him the favor of some influential politicians and the nomination.” 16 In Harrison, Boone County, Arkansas, on 27 September 1877, Brice Benjamin Hudgins married Josephine Bailey, 17 daughter of William 12 A Reminiscent History of the Ozark Region, Goodspeed, 346.

Judge Hudgins had been conspicuous as a politician, office holder and lawyer since 1875. He served Boone county in the legislature in 1885, 1887, and 1889, being speaker of the House during the latter term. He was judge of the Fourteenth Judicial Circuit from 1890 to 1898 and was chairman of the Arkansas Railroad Commission from 1903 to 1907, following which he was again elected circuit judge, serving for four years. He was appointed register [sic] of the United States land office in 1913, but resigned at the expiration of two years on account of broken health, and had been an invalid ever since, having been confined to his room most of the time. Judge Hudgins ranked high among the legal fraternity of the state, but his most conspicuous trait of character was his rugged honesty and his advocacy of the cause of temperance. An incident in Judge Hudgins’ life which well illustrates the character of the man was when, because of his illness and absence from his official duties as registed [sic] of the land office, he refused to accept a check for his salary for a year, when by so doing he might have saved himself from much financial embarrassment caused by his failing health. 18 A Reminiscent History of the Ozark Region, Goodspeed, 346.

He is survived by his two sons and five daughters, Oscar W. Hudgins of Muskogee, Okla.; John Hudgins of St. Louis; Mrs. Obie Taylor of Muskogee, Okla.; Mrs. Zack Wod [sic] of Claremore, Okla.; Mrs. Sam Bradley and Miss Ora Hudgins of Harrison; also a sister, Miss Mattie Hudgins of Harrison. [The issues surrounding the date of death of Judge Brice B. Hudgins are missing from the film of the Harrison newspaper. The obituary from The Arkansas Democrat is transcribed above.] W. W. Hudson, who certified the facts of Mattie’s birth, was her first cousin, Wesley Wood Hudson. Wesley had a brother named William Wiley Hudson who could have been the W. W. Hudson on Mattie’s birth certificate, except according to his grave marker in the Hudgins-Hudson cemetery, he died in 1914. Their mother, Martha (Byrne) Hudson was Mary Malinda (Byrne) Hudgins’ sister. The notary public who notarized the certificate was Neva (Hudson) Villines, the daughter of Wesley W. Hudson. 21 21 Wes W. Hudson household, 1920 U.S. census, Boone County, Arkansas, population schedule, Ewing township, ED 39, p. 9A, dwelling 187, family 188; NA microfilm T625, roll 54. Mattie Hudgins 29 The Arkansas Family Historian, Volume 45, Number 1 – March 2007 1891 CALHOUN COUNTY, ARKANSAS PERSONAL PROPERTY TAX Submitted by Tommy Carter [email protected] Personal property tax lists often are useful as substitutes for the 1890 census which was destroyed. In the case of Calhoun County, Arkansas, no substitute has been published until this one. Since no 1890 tax list survives for Calhoun County, the 1891 list was used instead. The personal property tax assessment list includes the greatest possible number of persons for a census substitute because it includes people who did not own real estate, and sometimes not even personal property, but were eligible to pay a poll tax. The 1891 Personal Property Tax List for Calhoun County is arranged by school district and then by the first letter of the surname of the taxable persons in each district. The school districts were numbered 1 to 35, but not named. The records are held by the Calhoun County Tax Assessor in the Calhoun County courthouse in Hampton, Arkansas. The extant personal property tax lists for the years 1886 through 1891 were filmed by the Genealogical Society of Utah and are available on Family History Library microfilm 980973. The film is also available at the Arkansas History Commission. Ables, Harvey Ables, C. H. Blann, W. C. Blann, J. T. Hanagan, J. M. Hanagan, T. D. Hill, F. E. Haynes, I. P. Joyce, T. J.

Arkansas Queries 55 The Arkansas Family Historian, Volume 45, Number 1 – March 2007 Book Reviews Getting Started in Genealogy Online. By William Dollarhide. Published by Genealogical Publishing Co., 3600 Clipper Mill Road, Suite 260, Baltimore, MD 21211-1953. 64 pp. Softbound, $12.95. This book contains a lot of useful information. Any genealogist could learn something from reading it, but it was clearly written for the beginner. The author assumes the reader has no knowledge of genealogy – he even defines “surname” – but there is no attempt to teach anything about computers. Mr. Dollarhide guides the reader through his seven steps for getting started with family interviews, contacting relatives, obtaining death records and searching census for the first few generations. Much of this can be done online. The author includes a sample pedigree chart and family group sheet in the back of the book for photocopying. The seventh step is to look at the Family History Library Catalog to find out about other resources that might help fill in the gaps. The remainder of the book describes the best places to look to round out the research. There are brief descriptions and web addresses for the best places to buy books online, and the best genealogy web sites. The “lineagelinked” websites are described, as well as the most popular genealogy programs for maintaining lineage data. There is a good explanation about the usefulness of a GEDCOM file and how to make one. The National Archives are discussed and web addresses are given for all of the Regional Archives, Research Centers, and National Personnel Records Centers. There is also a brief description of holdings and a web address for each of the major libraries and archives in the U.S. The last chapter is titled “Research Help for the Addicted.” Here, those who want to go farther learn how to find professional genealogists, genealogy magazines, newsletters and blogs. The author includes a list of what he considers to be the twenty best reference books for genealogists along with a brief description of each one. This book would be a great gift for someone who has professed an interest in getting started in genealogy. It is small and friendly enough not to intimidate those who are not yet into reading genealogy books. Rebecca Wilson, Little Rock, Arkansas 56 Book Reviews The Arkansas Family Historian, Volume 45, Number 1 – March 2007 The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Genealogy, Second Edition. Christine Rose, CG, CGL, FASG and Kay Germain Ingalls, CG. Alpha Books, 800 East 96th Street, Indianapolis, IN 46240. 342 pp. + index. Softcover, $18.95. Dividing genealogical research into six logical parts and twenty-four chapters, the authors use a light touch, a bright outlook, and a brief and basic format to lead the novice through the steps of the process. Along the way they impart to the reader not just the dos and don’ts of genealogical research, but also the sense of joy and accomplishment one can experience in identifying cousins or ancestors. This edition contains new information on the 1930 census, online research, and how to use the Internet. Every page contains one or more small boxes highlighting tips, pitfalls, or definitions relevant to genealogy. From ‘why do it’ and ‘where to begin,’ through using pedigree charts and family group sheets, to note taking and correspondence, using the internet and published sources, and finding lost relatives, the authors lead the reader on to original sources – census, courthouse records, cemetery records, newspapers, and military records. Part 5 addresses getting organized with filing systems, using correct citation, numbering and dating techniques, fleshing out with historical background, and analyzing data for agreement, conflicts, and relationships. Part 6 covers expenses, DNA, and additional county and federal records. This is a great book for beginners, and a good reinforcement for experienced family historians. Appendix A includes an extensive bibliography, computer genealogy programs, and educational opportunities for genealogists. Appendix B holds examples of all kinds of genealogical worksheets, as well as a template for an oral interview. Appendix C provides census extraction forms for 1800 through 1930. Try this book – you’ll like it. Despite the unfortunate title, it would make a good gift for someone thinking about looking into his family’s past. Susan Boyle, Little Rock, Arkansas Book Reviews 57 The Arkansas Family Historian, Volume 45, Number 1 – March 2007 Index of Death Notices appearing in The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette July 1 to December 31, 2005. Compiled and published by Oscar G. Russell, 506 Loop Road, North Little Rock, AR 42120-2216; 2005. 249 pp. Hardback. $34.00 includes shipping. Due to failing eyesight Mr. Russell has decided to discontinue his indexing efforts, so this book is his final product. All researchers looking for Arkansas obituaries owe him a debt of gratitude for the extensive series of indexes he produced. This volume is similar in format to the previous ones in the series. The index is an alphabetical listing by last name and first name of people for whom an obituary, news article, or death notice appeared in the statewide newspaper, either the Central Arkansas edition or the northwest Arkansas edition. In a landscape format the names are followed across each page by the town and the state of death, the age of the person at death, the date of the edition of the newspaper, page, column, and country of death if not the U. S. United States Postal Service abbreviations are used in the state column. Countries are abbreviated with an upper case and a lower case letter in the state column and typed out in full in the country column. The age of children under one year is designated as inf. The book contains 9,693 entries. Some of them, of course, are duplicates because their death information appeared in the newspaper on more than one day, or because their death resulted from crime, accident, or disaster that was newsworthy on more than one occasion. Arkansas Research, Inc. has taken over the printing and distributing of Mr. Russell’s indexes in yearly volumes.

O. Box 17653, Little Rock, AR 72222 Do you have ancestors who would qualify for ancestry in Arkansas? AGS has certificates in four different categories of residency. In which category does your ancestor belong? It requires a little research to acquire a certificate giving recognition to your family’s pioneers and settlers of Arkansas. The categories are: Colonial This certificate is for an ancestor who resided in Arkansas prior to January 1, 1804. Territorial This certificate is for an ancestor who resided in Arkansas prior to June 15, 1836. Antebellum This certificate is for an ancestor who resided in Arkansas prior to May 6, 1861. Nineteenth Century This certificate is for an ancestor who resided in Arkansas prior to December 31, 1900. To prove ancestry in Arkansas, a lineage of the direct ancestor must be submitted to AGS, along with source documents to prove these facts. A family group sheet of the ancestor who resided in Arkansas must be completed with primary sources as proof. All sources must be cited, photocopied and submitted with the application. The citation must be easily searched for verification. Examples of acceptable documents include: census records, church or bible records, tax lists, court records, military records, land patents, deeds, newspaper items, etc. Send copies, not originals, since they will not be returned. Periodically, the applications are filmed by the Arkansas History Commission and State Archives, where they may be accessed through the Biographical Index. It only costs $10 to apply for an Arkansas Ancestry Certificate. To receive an application write to Tommy Carter, 10106 Sulphur Springs Rd., Pine Bluff, AR 71603 and send your name and address with $1.00 for postage or print it from the website at www.agsgenealogy.org. Complete the application form and return it with $10.
