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.

Clinton H. BRIDGES 01 May 1856; Lucretia BRIDGES m. N. M. CONWAY (CONAWAY?) 01 Sep 1857; John Wesley BRIDGES m. Frances E. SLATTERY 17 Nov 1872. John Wesley BRIDGES was my g.grandfather; Lucretia and Clinton were his brother and sister. Lucretia and Mr. CONWAY must have died, because in the 1860's custody of their two sons is granted to the mother of John Wesley, Mary BRIDGES, in Pulaski County. After she died, the boys went to live with a BRIDGES aunt in Little Rock. Elizabeth ALDRIDGE either died or the marriage broke up because Clinton H. BRIDGES married in 1859 an Emaline WARREN of Macon Co.,GA. He served in the Civil War, and they eventually settled in Coleman, Florida. If anyone has connections to any of these people, please contact me.

Thanks, Diane ------- NAME: Diane Baxter Williamson EMAIL:tmct@flash.net SURNAMES: JONES, OLIVER, SPARKS, WELLS, WOODARD DATE: Thursday, July 18, 2002 QRYTEXT:OLIVER/SPARKS - I am looking for help on OLIVER/SPARKS marriage. I know that William "Bill" SPARKS was married to Sarah Augusta OLIVER, daughter of Robert McKINNEY and Velairy Moliana (WELLS) OLIVER and then to Sallie L. OLIVER, daughter of William Henry and Hulda (WOODARD) OLIVER. I think he (William) married Sallie L. OLIVER after the death of his first wife, Sarah Augusta OLIVER. I came to this by looking at all the information from other OLIVER lines. I know Sallie (my line) was married to a JONES who must have died before the census in 1880. They had 2 children: Mollie and Nannie. But then I have Joseph SPARKS, Robert SPARKS, Charles SPARKS, Alba SPARKS, William SPARKS, Rebecca SPARKS and Opelia SPARKS. Who was the mother ??? Sarah A. or Sallie L. ? My Sallie was a SPARKS when her father William Henry died in 1888. She is listed as such on the probate papers. Any help will be a big help. ------- NAME: Diane Baxter Williamson EMAIL:tmct@flash.net SURNAMES: JONES, OLIVER, SPARKS DATE: Tuesday, August 6, 2002 QRYTEXT:OLIVER/SPARKS connection. On my visit to Prairie County last week I uncovered what I think is the answer to the Sarah Augusta OLIVER and Sallie L. OLIVER marriage to William "Bill" SPARKS. Sarah A. OLIVER married him May 10, 1864; she died Jan. 3 1886. Sallie L. OLIVER was Sallie L. JONES on the 1880, census a widow living with her father and mother. I found a marriage license for William SPARKS and Sallie L. JONES dated May 7, 1886 (Book F page 472 1881-1888). So it looks like when Sarah died William was left with your children, he married Sallie who helped his raise his children and he raised her children. The answer to 2 marriage records for Sarah and William is unclear but I did find other names listed 2 times which leads me to think they may have been entered in error way back when they only came to town every few weeks. ------- NAME: Diane Baxter Williamson EMAIL:tmct@flash.net SURNAMES: JONES, MINTON, OLIVER, SPARKS, WELLONS, WOODARD DATE: Monday, August 26, 2002 QRYTEXT:OLIVER / JONES /SPARKS - After a visit to Prairie County last month I have come up with what I think is the answer to the Sarah / Sallie OLIVER and William "Bill" SPARKS marriage questions.

She died Jan. 3, 1886 and is buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery, Prairie Co. Also buried there is a son, Robert N. SPARKS (2-28-1867 to 8-21-1953) and daughter Phhelia SPARKS MINTON (7-31-1879 to 2-1-1906). Other children of Bill and Sarah (1880 census) were Joseph M, Charles W., Alma A, William F, Rebecca and Ophelia, Hassie Mae was born after 1880. After the death of Sarah A. OLIVER SPARKS in 1886 he married his 2nd Oliver wife. She was Sallie L. OLIVER JONES. Daughter of William Henry and Hulda WOODARD OLIVER. They married on May 20, 1886 in Prairie Co. (book F 1881-1888 page 472) Anyone that can add to this please let me know. If you would like copies of the marriage license I'll send then to you.

Today I got one I did not request BUT it may very well be a lead for many of us. I requested the death certificate for my great grandmother Maggie (Margaret) FELTS 3-9-1870 (born in Tenn.) to 11-10-1944 (buried at Hazen Cemetery) what I got was her Mother (maybe). What I got was: (Mrs.) Maggie Melinda FELTS, Born: March 8, 1851 (66 yrs. 7 mo. 23 days). Date of Death: Oct. 31, 1917, Prairie Co. Wattensas Twsp.. Birth Place: Shelby Co. Tenn.. Father's Name: Geo. (George) Pool, Birth Place of Father: Tenn. Information on Mother was listed as Unknown. Death certificate information was given by: Thomas W. Felts of Hazen, Ark.. It is not noted who this person was to Maggie. The place of burial is listed as DeValls Bluff, Ark. Undertaker is Ben Cagle of DeValls Bluff. I have contacted the Dept. of Vital Records in Little Rock and they are going to send me the correct ceritficate and I am to return this one BUT I am going to send them another $ 7.00 and keep this one too. I find Melinda FELTS listed in the cemetery book but my book is at home so I can't check on it until later today. If anyone can lend some light on my find please let me know. I know my FELTS line came from Shelby Co. Tenn. so someone probably knows who this Maggie is that must be part of my family; I just need the connection. -------------------------------------------------- ------- NAME: Geraldine Wilson EMAIL:sadiemae@wanweb.net SURNAMES: ACOCK, SANDERS DATE: Friday, September 10, 1999 QRYTEXT:In 1950 my grandfather Norman "Bud" SANDERS, age 70 married a woman by the name of ACOCK, age 69.

He planted rice in the area and was a director of the Bank of Stuttgart. As I am researching my genealogy, I seem to be having a bit of trouble locating marriage records for his children. I believe my grandfather and his two brothers married Arkansas ladies (GALLAGHER, KINDER and HOWARD) and settled in the Stuttgart area for the remainder of their lives. I believe one of his sisters married locally (SHOEMAKER)and the other may have returned to Illinois. Can you please help me or else possibly direct me to a site to research these marriages?
