LASLEY, PATCHING posted by Sharon Roberts Patching on Monday, June 23, 1997

 
John Alwen PATCHING married Dugan LASLEY 12/10/1892 in Texarkana, Miller CO, AR. I have alot of information on the Patching line, but nothing on the LASLEY family. On one record she was listed as M. Dugan LASLEY. That may have stood for Mary or Margaret Dugan LASLEY. So Dugan may have been her mother's maiden name. Hope someone from Miller county can help me. This little lady has always facinated me and would like to know more about her.
