GRAHAM/BAKER
Trying to help my nephew who is in the Navy get a jump start on his
ancestors. Researching George GRAHAM whose wife was Nannie BAKER. This
couple were reported to be from Columbia County and were parents to John
and Jehu Graham. One James Jehu Graham, born 1890, died 1944 in Shreveport,
Caddo Parish, LA. This Jehu's wife was Essie Bell DOWDEN. Believe George
GRAHAM ties to John A. GRAHAM, born 1860, died 1911, buried St. Maurice
Cemetery, Winn Parish, LA. His wife was Lucinda Bell FISHER. Would be glad
to share what information I have collected thus far, and would greatly
appreciate any help. Would love to surprise my nephew when he comes in
from his current cruise up the East Coast on the U. S. S. Vicksburg. Thanks.
FORCE
John W. Force, Henry Clay Force, William J, Force and Samuel Force
were sons of Freeman Morris Force and Nancy Massey from Aberdeen, Ms. They
moved to the Columbia-Lafayette County area in the 1860s. Three of them
married Hutchinson girls and Samuel married Mattie Sherman. I am trying
to determine who William J. Force's children were. I suspect that Mary
Elizabeth "Mollie" Force, born Feb 17, 1874 was one along with George K.
Force born Jan 27, 1880 and Jack Force dob unk but married Ellen Blankenship
who was born Dec 29, 1877 in Stamps, Ar. If anyone knows about this family
I would be happy to hear from them.
PATE
Looking for information on Charles Jackson PATE listed on the 1870

VAN WINKLE/GOODWIN/GOODEN/GOODIN/SHARP
Looking for the location of the burial of Jesse and Catherine VanWinkle.
Parents of Andrew Jackson VanWinkle of Magnolia Area, in late 1800s. Some
suggest they were buried in Stewart- Walkersville Cemetary. Jesse and Catherine
were farmers in Lafayette Co, but moved to Columbia Co, to be with their
son John Richard as they became elderly. Also interested in knowing Catherine's
full name. I am a decendant of Jesse, John Richard-his son, Andrew Jackson-his
son, Jesse Ben Newton -his son and Lester Jackson Van Winkle-his son. I
am Lester Jackson Van Winkle's middle son: Michael Ray Van Winkle
HUTCHINSON
Easter C. Hutchinson (Daughter of either John R. or Edwin Hutchinson)
of Calhoun Township of Columbia Co. Ar. married William J. Force in Columbia
Co. on April 4, 1869. There were shown in the 1870 Columbia Co. Census
and had no children at the time. William J. died on Mar 10, 1877, thus
he wasn't around for the 1880 Census. I believe that he died leaving Easter
with two or more small children. The most likely children were Mary Elizabeth
"Molly" Force and Jack A. Force. Easter Force and her children could have
been living in the home with her parents in either Columbia or Nevada County
when the 1880 Census was taken or else she could have remarried. I would
appreciate any help I can get on this as its my only missing link in seven
generations of the Force family.

Frances (9) my great grandmother, was living with James F. Temple family

AR records. I am now embarking on reading the Guardianship records of Columbia
Co. Any information would be helpful.
