Due to the large number of queries received, we have for the past two years adjusted the September issue of The Arkansas Family Historian to accommodate the volume on hand. This has helped tremendously in assuring that all queries sent by our menbers will be published in the year they are sul:r!litted .

Wk will ask again that you sul:r!lit your query with your 1990 dues, using the renewal form that will be in the December issue. Qleries will be published generally in the order of receipt.

President's Page

Have you submitted your surname directory form? Go ahead, while you're

thinking about it, and complete the form so you can be included in Arkansas Genealogical Society's surname directory to be published in early 1990. We want YOUR information! Finding new cousins can be so rewarding - they may have your third great-grand father's family Bible or wonderful photos of your ancestors. Participating in the surname directory project may lead you to new cousins and new information. The form only asks for the last name of the family, the county in Arkansas, and an approximate time period - most you know from memory. Best of all, entering your family surnames is freel AGS will be offering the completed directory for sale for a nominal amount to members, and a little higher amount to non-members, but there is no obligation to purchase one. Complimentary copies of the directory will be sent to libraries with major genealogical collections.

Have you made your reservations for the AGS Fall Seminar in Eureka Springs, November 3rd and 4th? We already have registrations coming in from as far away as several states. Pre-registration closes October 15th, so send your registration form in today - it is included in this issue of The Arkansas Family Historian. If you've always planned to attend an AGS fall seminar but just never could work it into your schedule, this is the one to clear your calendar for. We'll look forward to seeing you there!

Invitations, announcements and encouragements aside, I have a brief editorial comment. I want you to think about your roll in the organizations (including AGS) in which you're a member. Your support, your contributions, your interest, your ideas build societies. Are you a builder? Are your efforts toward positive results? Let's pull together to maintain, boost, and expand our organizations. Encourage and applaud the efforts of fellow members. Don't waste a minute of your precious time with the evil gremlin, Negativism. That devil will find his way into any society without your assistance. Work to create a wonderful, cooperative spirit with your fellow members. Accept as much or as little as they are able to give. Listen to new ideas and keep a cheerful, positive attitude. Be proud of your role as a builder and keep up the good work!

The Orphan Train Heritage Society of America is holding a second reunion on October 7 and 8 in Fayetteville,Arkansas. OTSHA publishes CROSSROADS. and are very dedicated to learning all possible about the Children's Aid Society and those who were participants in it.

Sharon Taylor and Halbert's. Inc •• of Bath, Ohio. are again being investigated following a consent agreement they had breached from a prior legal hearing in 1985. The newest petition alleges that the company continues to misrepresent its product.

We've been told that the State of Texas closed some birth and death records. effective 09/01/87 through the passage of HB768 in the 10th Session of the State Legislature, and that copies. when available, are now $7.50 each. It is also reported Texas genealogists are working on this problem.

Vera Sanford Rock of Rt. 5. Box 362. Spokane, WA 99208, wrote: "I was so happy to see the article about the 'Hawkins' cemetery near Atoka, Oklahoma. in the June issue of the Arkansas Family Historian.

"I am enclosing a copy of the service record of John E. Flowers who enlisted in October 1861 in Antoine (not Antonia) Arkansas in C. L. Dawson's 9th Arkansas Division, Company A. We have been trying for a long time to locate the place where he was buried. We have known ,for some time that he died at Kudddy Boggy, Oklahoma.

"John E. Flowers was the mother of lIlY grandmother. Turie Jane Flowers (Tude was spelled many ways- Turia-Ture-Tura,etc.) who married William A. Anderson (called Joe) and they lived on a farm on the Little River just outside Alleene, Arkansas.

"John B. Flowers was one of the soldiers who died of a 'sickness' as it is described in his service record. He was born in South Carolina, his wife was Nancy Ann Brown. they were married in DeKalb County, Alabama. His parents raised his daughters. 1 do not know the fate of Nancy but is thought she died after the birth of Turie. but we do not know the date or cause of death.

As it covers the Civil War period. the last entries during the war were recorded in 1962. when the courts were suspended and all records were removed and hidden until the courts resumed in July 1965. Although some of the marriage entries are brief, some contain names of parents, place of marriage and other helpful information. In one record (Jones to Sloat) the color of hair and eyes of the bride and groom were given. The index includes grooms', brides and ministers credentials. - BJM.

EARLY OUACHITA COUNTY.ARKANSAS, TAX RECORDS 1846-1860 by Yvonne Spence Perkins. 2107 54th. Lubbock. TX 79412, softbound. 202 pages. $15 postpaid. Tax lists are such wonderful sources for genealogists and Mrs. Perkins has made these early lists for Ouachita County accessible in her book. Taxpayers are listed in alphabetical order (with an index to non-resident and original land owners) in tabular form. Personal and real taxes were combined in one assessment at this time in Arkansas and where land descriptions are given, even the quarter section is listed. The visual presentation of the material is especially well done. Helpful period maps enhance the book. Subsequent volumes containing the Ouachita County tax lists are in preparation by Mrs. Perkins and we applaud her efforts to make this little-known. little-used resource available.-DWA

Eleven generations of the family with maps, charts, photos, current addresses of descendants, a bibliography and more makes this almost everything you ever wanted to know about the family, but Mr. Crossman has also published a supplement (H1) of 470 pages (write for price) with even more information that grew from his initial book. Both books have full name indexes. Mr. Crossman and his wife, Marcia Gail Swain Crossman, have co-authored A GENEALOGY OF THE SWAIN FAMILY: Descendants of Jesse Abner Swain. Softbound, -126 pages (write for price). This book includes descendants of Jesse Abner Swain who was born in 1819 in IL or NC. Photos, facsimiles of original papers, transcriptions and source notations make this an interesting book. The layout and design of the book are especially visually appealing. There is a full name index.-DWA

Not knowing how to address them on the subject, and knowing by laws of the Territory their lands will at II certain period be liable to be sold for taxes, I have thought proper to convey to those interested the above information."
