Here are some more of the obits from a scrapbook of a lady (a distant
cousin) that lived in the Jesup, Lawrence County area of Arkansas already.
Remember that the problem with these is that there are very few actual
dates given for the dates of death, and there are no newspaper names
written beside them. What I do know I've listed, and what was penciled in
on the obit, I've included. If you find someone that is attached to you,
please let me know, and I will try and see if I can find any other
information for you, such as date of death if you don't have it, and
possibly a newspaper name, also.
