Arkansas land records

While I was at my week-long genealogy conference at Fort Wayne, I found information that Jacob Hufstedler purchased land in Randolph County Arkansas on 01 July 1859. He purchased 89.480 acres. I found this through a book entitled "Arkansas Land Patents: Randolph County granted through 30 June 1903" by Allen & McLane. I also found him listed as owning personal property and land according to the book "Randolph County Arkansas Tax Records 1839 - 1860" by Burton Ray Knotts.

new research

While I was in Fort Wayne for a genealogy conference, I found a book at the Allen County Public Library. It's called "Maury County Marriages" by Edythe Whitley. In it is a listing of the marriage of Joseph Polk to Hannah Lamaster

updated home page

I found out recently that I was only using 1/10th of the space allowed on my genealogy web page. So for the past few days, I've been uploading original images of all my documents for the Bridges/Chapman families. Tonight I finished with the last family.

Pictures from Aunt Betty

Today I received a package from Aunt Betty. She sent it back with Mom. These are all pictures of their childhood. I'm going to scan them and then post them on to shutterfly. That way all the relatives can order whatever pictures they want.
