Hi Kathy
Arkansas became a territory in 1819, and a state in 1836 (the 25th state),
so your Sara would not have been born there in 1809.
It was a part of the Louisiana purchase of 1803. What is now Arkansas
became a part of the Missouri territory in 1812. In 1819, when Missouri
applied for statehood, ongress created the Arkansas territory & included
what is now Oklahoma.
Have you checked the formation of the counties you are interested in?
Remember for very early AR records..pre 1819...look at Missouri & Louisiana.

I have posted my Campbell's before but with no luck, so trying again.
William Hugh (Huey) Campbell was born 16 Nov 1839 in
Louisiana. He is listed on the Louisiana 1850 census with his
Mother Sarah Campbell, not Dad, the children listed are
Ellen, Huey, Samuel, Lofton, Lucretia and Francis.
Some local cousins and I believe Sarah is Sarah Barnes, going
on
Ancestry.com, she is listed as the mom born 1809 in
Louisiana (I thought she was from Arkansas) and William Hugh
Campbell is listed as Dad who was born abt 1805 in North
Carolina and died 1849 in Louisiana.
I see on
Ancestry.com there is a lot of William Hugh
Campbells and a lot of Hugh Campbell. There is also some with
similar names in south Louisiana, but I'm looking in north or
central Louisiana.
Does anyone have a missing William from North Carolina?
Thanks for any help.
