RASCOE, his parents, ancestors, and descendants. Also need the date of his death and place of burial. William S. RASCOE was born somewhere in the State of North Carolina according to the 1850 & 1860 censuses. He was living in Fayette County, Tennessee by October of 1846. There he married William H. F. ABINGTON on October 21, 1846. They are listed in the 1850 Census of Fayette County, Tennessee. William S. RASCOE was in Prairie County, Arkansas by 1855. On January 11, 1856 he received a Federal land grant of 40 acres in section 13, township 4 north, range 7 west, near Hickory Plains in Prairie County, Arkansas. During the War Between the States, William S. RASCOE was a sargeant in the 25th Infantry, Company "C", Confederate States of America Army from Arkansas. William S. RASCOE and his wife had three known sons. They were: 1. William H. RASCOE born 7 Sept. 1847, died 15 September 1918; married Martha Emaline LOVE about 1870. 2. J. Thomas RASCOE born about 1854. 3. Joseph L. RASCOE born between 1853 and 1857; married Martha B. HOLLOWAY 15 December 1880. He must have died before 1900 as Martha is listed as head of household in the 1900 census. William S. RASCOE's first wife died between 1857 and 1866. He married a second wife, Henryetta STANDLEY 11 October 1866 and they had two children. They were: 1. May F. RASCOE born about 1867. 2. Albert Sidney RASCOE born 6 October 1868. and died 5 January 1929; married Mattie MATTHEWS 16 December 1897. William S. RASCOE apparently died before 1870 and Henryetta remarried some unknown person. This may have been someone named HARDEN or HARDIN. There were supposed to have been a son named Ed HARDEN and a daughter named Dessy. By the 1870 census all the younger RASCOE children were living in the household of the older son, William H. RASCOE. Any additional information would be appreciated. James R.

His wife was Martha Ann Tindall FORT and she died in Nacogdoches County, TX around 1910. He had sons, John, William, Isaac, who all lived in Prairie County. He signed Deeds of Trust to farm land that belonged to Hamp MINTON in Prairie County, the last document being dated in January of 1886. His wife, Martha Ann, was never mentioned in any of the trasactions but she (alone) signed a Deed of Trust with the same Hamp MINTON in December of 1886. This would seem to indicate that Elias had died at some time between January and December of 1886. They were poor people and I am presuming that would have made it necessary for him to have been buried in a cemetery near the Hamp MINTON property. My problem is in locating that property. The positive side to all of this is that FORT family members have a devotion to marking their graves, so I am hoping that Elias's grave is also identified but I am not sure of that. ------- NAME: Danny Sutton EMAIL:sutton.danny@worldnet.att.net SURNAMES: SUTTON, WALKER DATE: Saturday, June 23, 2001 QRYTEXT:My grandfather, Jimmy SUTTON was married to Georgia WALKER.
