The Web sight is user friendly and I have enjoyed myvisit.I am researching my gg-grandparents, James & Margaret
YOUNGER. It is my understanding from an article I read in the Pope Co.Historian that James along with his sons had an ox driven freightbusiness between Quitman and Clarksville before the railroad putthem out of business. I am trying to locate James and Margaret during that time frame (I estimate to be between 1865 and whenthe railroad came) and where they were buried.Good luck to you in presenting Van Buren to the world!Carolyne
