CROWLEY Mrs. James R. Earle, RFD t 1, Centralia, Illinois
62801 - I would love to uncover any record of one
particular person who was a resident of Scott co., Ark. This
person was Margaret (called Maggie) Crowley, and was the daughter
ot Dennie James and Hanora Ronan Crowley. She was born in England
in either 1851 or 1854 and Came to America with her parents to
Montgomery Co., Ill., in 1859. She later moved with them to Hickman
Twp., Scott Co., Ark., in the 1870's.
Her mother Hanora, died there on 16 June 1880, and is buried
at the Catholic Cemetery, Ft. Smith, Sebastian Co., along with
another daughter Mary Ann, who died in 1880 or 1881, According to
a document I have, Margaret died very soon after her mother, in
Arkansas. The parish records in Ft, Smith nor their cemetery records,
do not show Margaret, Also the search of County and city
records at Ft, Smith were negative, In addition to this I have
searched the records at the Waldron Courthouse with no results, The
possibliity that Margaret may have married and is therefore buried
under a name different than Crowley haS been mentioned, Again, no
record at the Waldron Courthouse, Since I am particularly interested
in this ancestor, because I am the fourth Margaret Crowley, that
I have discovered so far, I am wondering if anyone can assist me in
any way, Any assistance will be greatly appreciated,
