Subject: Re: Index to the Co Wills of SC From: Mary Date: January 24, 2000 I thought of you when I saw this today/Mary Galatea,In a book in the Longview library-I only have noted Red River Ark on page 53 is this write up-In 1817 Wm Gentry from Stewart Co Tenn and his bro-in-law James Ward also from Tenn settled in Clark(now Pike)co Ark.They located on Wolf Creek on the east side of the Southwest Trail which was also referred to as the military or public road.The early court records indicate a Tyre(tirey)Gentry thought to be the father if Wm Gentry and Samuel Narrad father of Jane Gentry wife of Wm Gentry were early settlers of Clark Co Ark.Wm Gentry and James Ward entered section 35 in Township 8,So of Range 23 West.To the east on the Clark Co side of the Antoine bayou near Wolf Creek in Section 25,David Edmiston from Tenn settled in 1818.End of article.Also in that print(think a gen. magazine colledn)shows a bible record of James Madison Gentry,son of Wm Gentry and Jane Narrad. Looking for bible owner who is unknown-noted by Pike Co Archives and Hist. Soc.
