DICKERSON, FRUEN posted by Georgia Aeverman on Friday, April 16, 1999

I am seeking information on the children of Mrs. Cordelia (DICKERSON) FRUEN. She was on the Monroe Co AR census for 1860 with her three children: Josephine, Evaline and Calvin. She remarried to Joseph FRUEN in 1861 in Monroe Co. By 1880, Joseph, Cordelia and Josephine have moved to Yell Co AR, along with William FRUEN, 8 years old. I would like info on the DICKERSON children or the FRUEN'S.

BRYAN, TUCKER, WILSON posted by Cheryl Haas on Sunday, May 9, 1999

I am seeking information on the parents of Florence B. BRYAN, b. 14 Aug 1877 in Brinkley, Monroe Co., AR and married, 7 Dec 1896 in Brinkley, Monroe Co., AR to William Miller WILSON. Florence was the daughter of C.K. BRYAN (I believe his name is Charles K. but can't prove it yet) and A. A. (Augusta A.) TUCKER. I know from census information and the family Bible that C.K. was born 17 Jan 1840 in GA and died 19 Feb 1881 in AR. The family seemed to move between Marshall or Tate Co., MS and Monroe Co., AR. I have quite a bit of information on Augusta Tucker BRYAN'S family, but none on C.K. BRYAN. If anyone has a C.K. or Charles BRYAN in their line I would appreciate sharing information.
