I am a resident of Kansas City (Jackson County), Missouri, and I've recently embarked upon a genealogical research project for the surnames WOODFORD and WASHINGTON in Woodruff County and Prairie County, respectively. I've read with interest the Prairie County History website, and have the following questions: 1. Does the Cemetery Inscription Book contain actual inscriptions and/or obituary information for the persons listed on the web pages? How can I get a copy of the book? I am specifically interested in inscriptions noted for George WASHINGTON (multiple entries are indicated), Cora WASHINGTON and another WASHINGTON, for whom the given name isn't listed. 2. Does the book contain information on blacks buried in Prairie County? The WOODFORDs and WASHINGTONs included in my research for the time period 1860-1930 are black and mulatto. 3. Is there any information about the WASHINGTON surname in what was previously known as Lower Hill Township (now Biscoe, as I've been told)? I am seeking information related to a 13 year-old black girl named Cora WASHINGTON who may have become pregnant by an older man, named Charlie S. WOODFORD who appears to have been 29 at the time he fathered her child, Rufus C. WASHINGTON. (Rufus C. WASHINGTON is my maternal grandfather, b. 29 Aug 1895, enumerated in 1910 Woodruff County Census in WOODFORD household as "nephew"). The story I've heard is that my grandfather's mother died in childbirth, and his father committed suicide. The family history I have suggests that he went to live with his grandparents in Cotton Plant, Arkansas. However, my research indicates otherwise -- I believe that the 16 year-old Cora Washington I located in the Prairie County 1900 Census is actually my grandfather's mother. My theory is that she and Charlie Woodford conceived a child, and she later married Horace C. WOODFORD in 1904 -- Horace and Cora were in the Woodruff County 1910 Census (Cora was then 26, which makes sense). If Horace did kill himself, then Horace would have married his brother's mate (as was customary years ago), and raised his brother's child as his [Horace's] nephew. I apologize for this lengthy message. Thanks for reading it, and I look forward to hearing from anyone who has valuable information.

I was in Hazen last month and found some new cemetery markers the family did not know about and I plan to come back in August to search some more.

Kimble EMAIL:jckimble@earthlink.net SURNAMES: BALEN, BOLEN, KIMBELL, KIMBLE, KIMLE, TOLBERT DATE: Thursday, February 6, 2003 QRYTEXT:Looking for info on my ggf, J.W. KIMBLE (believed to be James William), born in AL in 1825. Married Mary Ann BOLEN (BALEN) also born in AL about 1851. Two children born in AL: Mary E., born about 1868 and Robert H., born 1870. Sometime between 1870-1875 the family moved to Hardin County, TN. Third child, Charles Wesley born about 1875. Family appears on the 1880 TN census in Hardin County as KIMBELL. It is believed that Mary Ann BOLEN KIMBLE died between 1880 and 1882 and J.W. KIMBLE married Mary TOLBERT. Mary TOLBERT KIMBLE had two sons by J.W.: Marion Francis, born 1883 and William Edgar, born about 1884. Both born in the Hardin-Hardeman-McNairy County, TN area. Two of the boys, Charles Wesley and Marion Francis married in Middleton, TN 1903-1906. William Edgar was living near Collierville, TN in 1918 when he registered for the draft. J.W. KIMBLE's sons eventually located near Forrest City (St. Francis County, Linden Island), Arkansas, probably around 1900-1910. Robert Henry's son, Sidney (my father), was born on Linden Island in May 1910. About 1920, Robert Henry moved his family to Prairie County. He farmed there, for perhaps two years, and then moved back to St. Francis County. I would like to know if J.W. was with his sons when they came to AR, or did he die in Tennessee. I have death certificates on two of J.W.'s children -- one lists father's name as "Jim" and the other as "Billy". Any information on J.W. KIMBLE or his family will be greatly appreciated. ------- NAME: Jimmy C. Kimble EMAIL:jckimble@earthlink.net SURNAMES: KIMBLE DATE: Thursday, February 6, 2003 QRYTEXT:Around 1920, my gf, Robert Henry KIMBLE, took his family from St. Francis County to Prairie Co. They were farmers. My father, Sidney, who was born in 1910, told the story of riding the lead mule that was pulling the wagon as they moved. He was probably about 10 at the time so perhaps the family was somewhere near Des Arc on the 1920 census. Robert Henry and family farmed in Prairie County for a few years and then returned to Forrest City. What I would really like to know is: was my ggf, J.W. (probably James William) with the family at the time.
