WELCOME TO

FRANKLIN COUNTY ARKANSAS

 

NOTICE:

Due to the death of Don Kelly, this county was adoptable. We are all saddened by the loss of Don who was the County
Coordinator for this county since 1996.
I have recently taken over Franklin County. I do not live in the county, but know something about the county. I will have to relay on those who are interested in, or live in the county for help keeping the county up to date.

MYSTERIES




This stone was photographed in Scotland. It is an 18th century burial stone in good shape for a  Steven Rutledge. 

By chance my 2gfather's name was also Stephen Rutledge. 

Yet the connection between this stone and the Rutledge family of today, is same coat of arms depicted on this stone can be found on other websites for  Rutledge or Routledge families in three countries, and we all own the same exact registered Tartan.

 

Does anyone have the skill set to enhance this photo and read the inscription?
