bible that his mother's given name was Nancy and that on the 16th of
August, 1876 he married Matilda Frances (Fannie) OWENS in Mena,
Arkansas. She was born 9 Feb, 1859 in Mena delivered most of the nine
children she bore to Frank in Hot Springs, Garland County, Arkansas,
died 9 Apr, 1912 back in Mena and was buried in the same Owens Chapel
Cemetery where Frank was buried after his death 16 Aug 1900. We know a
good deal about most of their descendants, but nothing more of
Grand-dad.
If you could enlighten us on any point concerning this mystery man, the

MONTGOMERY/MCGEE/SPILLER/FAIR
I am searching for information for the following names, MONTGOMERY,
MCGEE, SPILLER AND FAIR. Specifically Samuel MONTGOMERY and his wife
Mary, his son William MONTGOMERY. Census reports show them in Fulton
County in 1880, 1900, 1910. William had a daughter named Dora Bell
MONTGOMERY, she married Thomas Jefferson MCGEE. I believe that Thomas J
MCGEE came to Fulton County from Georgia. Any information about them
would be appreciated.
James Oscar SPILLER(S) married Jessie FAIR. They are shown in the 1900,
1910, and 1920 Fulton County Census. Jessie FAIR indicates that she did
not know where her parents were from. SPILLER and FAIR were my
grandmothers parents. My grandmother was Winnie Kathering SPILLER, and I
think she has a twin named John. They were born March 1917. ANY
information that can be shared about the above mention families would be
so greatly appreciated.

I have been trying to trace my family roots, on my dad's side, for

volunteers group of Mounted Guns, 1836-7. He married in St. Francois Co.
Mo in Jan 1838 and lived in Missouri until about 1848-9, when he moved
