Hi All,
I found in 1880, Horsehead, Johnson Co, ARK:
family 122
Caigle, Jane 40 a widow
Arthur 21
Willie 18
Mollie 15
Roofus 14
Thomas 12
Harrison 8
reported all born TN
Also Roofus Cagle age 13 was a farm hand at the Gray family place.
I also found family #225
Griffin, Sarah a widow age 45 b:TN
McAnally, Joseph W. 14 b:TX
Griffin, Adna 6 b:ARK
McAnally, Henry 18 b:TX
McAnally, Irine his wife 25 b:ARK
I went through all of Johnson Co, ARK. I still can not find an Isabelle/Isabella
James/Jones who married Arthur Columbus Cagle. I may have miss her of course.
I am still searching for proof of the story that Isabelle/Isabella and her 2 children
drown in a flash flood; Arthur was unable to hold on to them; he climbed a tree to
survive; this supposedly happened around the Clarksville area.
I'll check to see if there are any newspapers available for 1880-90 to see if an
article was printed.
If anyone has any other info, please post :)
Thanks,
Cindy Maschner
