FROM THE MAILBOX
The Hare article on page 47 of your Vol. III, No.2, Fall 1964 issue is most
interesting; however, I ask that you kindly make one correction about Moses
Hare who died in 1793 in Gates Co., North Carolina.
Moses Hare, died in Gates Co. N.C., 1793, is my direct ancestor.
He was a
Revolutionary War patriot, and his wife was Honore Speight, daughter of Wm.
Speight, descendant of Francis Speight born England 1614, who came to Virginia
in 1635 on the "Thomas and John".
Moses Hare and Honore Speight were married
1734/35 and their children were: Moses, Joseph, John. Elisha Hare and Bridget
Small.
The Honour Ashburn shown on p. 47 as wife of Moses Hare did marry a Moses
Hare but not until March 6, 1793. according to Gates Co. marriage records, and
therefore could not have been the mother of the above heirs of Moses and Ibnore
Soeight Hare--their youngest son, Elisha Hare having married Easter Norfleet
on Dec. 28, 1790, in Chowan Co. N.C. almost three years before Honour Ashburn'S
marriage.
It is so easy to skip generations in families suffiCiently long_lived to
have, bearing the same Christian name, a Senior, Junior and the Third, which
is evidently true of the Hare family in Albemarle section of N.C. Consequently
one must bear in mind that when Moses Hare, Sr. died in 1765 leaving widow,
l1ary, their son Moses, Jr. immediately became Moses Hare, Sr. and that when
Moses Hare, Sr. died in 1793, his son Moses, Jr. immediately became Moses, Sr.
without benefl.t of the deSignation that he was the third man in Gates Co. to
bear the name Moses Hare, Sr.
I will thank you to help with this correction and to let interested persons
know that I welcome correspondence on these lines: Hare, Speight, Norfleet,
Riddick and others from the Albermarle section of No. Carolina and Virginia.

I have three volumes of "Our Islands and Their Peoples" published in 1899,
containing recorded data by Major-General Joseph Wheeler, U.S, Army under Comm.
Wm. Rufus Shafter in Cuba, 'and fighting with unnamed American Soldiers.
The
photography makes the men's features as clear as if snapped yesterday. Any who
had relatives who fought these campaigns would surely love to find familiar
faces, If interested parties would send me the names, dates, rank, companies,
etc. to which their family members were attached I may be able to begin a story
of interest to many.

HISTORY OF JOHNSVILLE, ARKANSAS (BRADLEY COUNTY)
TO: Arkansas Genealogical Society
A grou9 of us in this part of the state have formed our own genealogical
society and have named ourselves The South Arkansas Genealogical Society. We
don't have a publication.
We merely pool our "dues" to buy microfilm, books,
and various genealogical materials.
One of our members, Mr. Otis Walker, Route 2, Camden, Arkansas, has some
ancestors who were affiliated with the Palestine Methodist Church, Johnsville,
which is about 20 miles south of Warren, in Bradley County. He obtained a copy
of their church roll to make a copy for himself,
I 'requested that he make a
copy for the state publication and he obliged by giving me the attached material. In case any of our members should want to write him, the three families
in his name are Hartin. Temple and l{cClain.
All members of the Arkansas Genealogical Society should be on the lookout
for material for our publication. If the rest of us will help you it will make
your task easier and our publication more representative of the entire state,
I know you want that because you have published the two items I've sent you in
the past.

(We are indeed pleased \<lith JIll'. Otis Walker's contribution to our publication and with Mr. Bullock's interest in obtaining the material for us. We are
printing on the following pages portions of a letter pertaining to early families in that area and portions of the early church records of the Johnsville
Palestine Methodist Church.
rM, Editor)
The following letter \Jas written by the late W. T. Martin, then Counselor
and Attorney-at-Lal, in Camden, Arkansas.
It was printed in the Democrat News
(Warren, Ark.) October 7, 1915, and reprinted in the Eagle Democrat (Ivarren)
December 24, 1946. It was l<Titten to Mr. G. M. Hampton of Fordyce, Arkansas.
Dear George,
James Meek told me that there was going to be an old settler's meeting at
Johnsville next Sunday and ,.services would be held in the Presbyterian church
and asked me to tell wha t I knel, of the history of Johnsville and the people
who settled in that country before the war;
in fact to tell as far as I know.
the country and its history. that perhaps i t may be of some interest as well
as information to the younger generation.
On the 20th day of September, 1856, my father, Jas. Saddler r~rtin, arrived
from the State of Mississippi, crossed the Saline River at Moor's Hill, Bradley
County, and passed Col. John R. Hampton's place and stopped at Henry S. Rawls,
who settled on the river hills tl,O miles above Col. Hampton's.
In a few days
my father moved to the Boyd place, a mile from Col. Hampton's.
In that early day there were quite a number of people who had recently come
into the count~J. had settled in the woods and cleared land and built houses
and Negro quarters.
Charlie !flOore, Jas. L Robinson and Mat Stuart bought a
sawmill and began operating it on eht Saline River about 1850 at the Jack Fogle
place. It was a lively ,?lac3 i.n tho se days and was the only place where people
could go to learn the general news of the country and congregate socially. The
nearest store was at IDngvieH, then miles up the river, where Phil Derden did
a general merchandise business, which was my father's trading point.
Dr. Cabeen, father-in_law of CoL Hampton, lived about two miles ,lest of
lon:;;view at the foot of the big hills Hest of the river. He moved there in the
Thirties from near Nonroe, La. and his other son-l.n-la;{, Sam T. W. Heek, lived
on the west bank of the Saline River one mile south of longvi.ew.
Jno. G. Hartin, an uncle of mine, lived on the hills close to Dr. Cabeen,
and old man Jim York livGd 0" the hUls about half a mile l,est of Johnsville.
In the early Forties he left Alabama and s tart.ed to move to Texas and got as
far as iJr. Cabeen's 101hen the Llages and ·Ouachi.ta River overflowed and he could
go no further.
Dr. Cabeen took him about the COll.l'ltry and showed him the land
"here he settled and after1'1ards he cleared a field about half mile east of his
house. Aften'ards his son-in-laH, George, lived t.here and another son-in-law
3rcmson settled about a mile southeast Hhere the first Hethodist church in that
cccmtry ,,:as built. After;·rards the place vias sold to a man named Hoviss. A man
r.a2ed Rix sold his place to Sam McClain, 1-1'.10 moved from MiSSissippi in 1893 and
settled there, and he sold to a man named Halpoole i,n j373.
John Gillis was another early settler. He came from Alabama in the Thirties
and settled on the Saline River just above I,here CoL Hampton's gin-house used
to stand and married one of Jack Foe;le's sisters. Hy father settled half mile
northwest of Col. Hampton in 13.57. Isiah Lanzdale had settled some time in the
Forties on the river hills about a mile southeast of where the Methodist Church
now stands. Johnson Runnels lived on the big road three miles south of Johns·"ille. Mat Stuart lived on Improvement Creek one half mile south of Col. Hampton's. He sold thG place to Col. Hampton. I,ho afteI"l,ards gave it to Mrs. Sue
NeHton, his daughter, who had married a Dr. Hiley NeVlton of Union COW1tyo
Jack and Pete Fogle lind on Saline River nGar Hoar's Mi.ll, and Fog Fogle
lived a mi.le Hest. He married a widou, Lacatureo
Jas. I. Robinson lived on
the Saline River tlW milGs south. Another one of the Fogle brothers named Bat
died at Henry S. RaHls" in 13.59. Jas. I. Robinson had a brother Eli who died
after the war. Dr. Miller lived at longvi81, and in after years went blind and
di.ed on the Rawls place in 1867. A mm:. named HW1ni,cut had set.tled on the west
side of Improvement CrGek about a mile ,,'est of Col. Hampton's.
HI'S. Cook and her sons,.iD-laH, Isaiah Slator and Gru.mbles, lived on Snake
Creek not far west of the river. Grumbles afterwards moved to Branchville in
Dre" COC1l1ty. lock Stuart, Jas. Thompsop.., Hallace Cabeen and Dr. Brandon lived
fl~rther up the Creek.
Mortimer Hartin lived still further up the creek on the
)lace in after years knol,m as Deab Johnson" s place. Jas. Gill lived four or
five miles further north. Nelson B. York lived about a mile ;{est of his father
James York. Terrell York had settled six miles west on Half ..Hay Creek.
John
Scarbrough lived on Dr. Jackson's place about a mile north of Johnsville.
Two men named love and Boyd lived on the ri.ver hi.lls about. a mile southeast
of JohnSville.
The big road used to run by t.he Boyd place from Moro to Long_
vieH and ;·rent by Dr. Cabeen'so
Dave Jones and Mason B. lowrey, who were bro_
thers .. in .. laH, lived abollt tom and a half miles northwest of Johnsville. Nason
3. LoHer"J lived about one mi,le north of the Smyrna Bapti.st Church. He sold his
?lace to a man named Irwin, and then settled at the edge of the bottom t ;·ro
mi:i.6S southeast of Johnsville, where he lived during the "ar.
A :no.n named Halls lived about a mile east of Smyrna Church. Uncle Nortimer
Martin bought Heat.hin:;ton's place and ran a tan-yard there during the tolar.
Stuarts. Atkins, Castlcberrys, Dubrons and Forrests li.ved tHO or three miles
north on the river hills. One of \'Ialls daughters ma.'~ried a Careuff who lived
i.n on the river. His place nOI, goes by the name of Carcuff's Landi,ng.
71
Dunk Pippins O1med and operated a warehouse on Saline River about four miles
south of Moor's Mill where the Rock Island railroad crossed the river. He used
to operate a fer~J, where my father in crossing on his ferry boat lost one of
the finest horses that was ever in that country. There was a landing on Saune
River close to Dr. Cabeen's house, a graveyard close by, and some old vacant
houses when we came to the state.
Dunk Pippin told my father that he and another raftman were camping there, and the old raftman had a pot of gold which
he buried one night near that place and died a few days thereafter. He (Pippin)
looked for it but never found it. This gold was buried in the Thirties.
A man named Gerrells lived about two miles south of Johnsville in a big old
log house that used to stand over in the field east of the road close to where
After Col. Hampton put up the sawmill, Gerrells built
HcKinney' 5 mill stood.
the little white house on the road just south of the mill. close to the Methodist
Church. Dr. Alpheus Ra~lls and Stephens Barefield afterwards lived it it. Gerrells died one night at the supper table before me moved in his ne\-I house and
his ~1idoH aftenlards married a man named Jerry Radden. Uncle Joe Nartin came
to this couutry \iith my father and settled about a mile north of Henry S. Ra\-Ils
on the ri vcr hills.
These people I-have named are about those who lived in this country in the
early days "hen my father moved there from Mississippi in 1856.
There were a
few French living on the river do~m in the corner. They were the Acans, Pevetoes, Colers, Laeboffs and llamiltons. After 1856 people began to move in fast
mostly from Mississippi and South Carolina. The Crawfords, Wilfongs, Elisons,
Pagans, Cha",i)Grs, 11eeks, Garrisons, Jacksons, Saddlers, Rosses, Kings, Givens,
I-lon tcomGl'Ys, Ferrells -_ ThomasGs, HcKerrs, Thompsons, Ruff, Dan and James l'~ln
all C~~e from South Carolina and settled in that country a few years before the
liar. Sam McClain, the Godfries, Hartins, Temples and Rawls were from Miss.
In 1857 John Brady came from Warren and built a store at the cross roads of
the Viero and IDngvievl road and the Ivarren and Moor's Mill road.
I was at the
home of Uncle Henry Rawls and heard Jno. Brady and some men of the cOll1!l1unity
discussin::; ~mat they HOuld name the place and it was deci.ded to name it Johnsville for the different Johns in that community, among whom were John R. Hampton, John Cabeen, John l1artin and John Brady.
The Presbyterian Church was built in 1858-59 and the Rev. Crawford was _the
preacher for several years. He moved to Arkadelphi.a where he died years later.
Aften-lards the Reverends Kerr, Dixon and Brown .filled the pulpit as long as I
lived in that cOlmty.
The present Palistine Nethodist Church was built in 1860.
Before it~las
built there ~ras a log church about twenty steps east. Uncle Joe Martin taught
school at this church and I attended this school. Geo. M. and Edward E. Hampton, sons of Col. John R. Hampton and the Rawls boys, Randolph, Jesse and Sing,
also attended this school.
Uncle Joe l1artin taught in 1857, 1858 and until
April, 1859, ,;hen a hurricane blel, a tree on his house, injuring him and his
son John. He never recovered but moved to the Gillis place close to where Mr.
Alison lived, and died in 1860. Thus passed- away one of South Carolina's best
la1-1yers, vlho had figured prominently in the early history of that state. He is
buried in the gra-"G yard at Palis tine Church.
I have forgotten \-mO the circuit rider preachers were sent by the Methodist
conference. I knolf th0re "as a preacher sent there in 1859 and 1860 named Mar_
shall, I-rna had a son Lel-1i5_ Mrs. Marshall taught school at Davis Jones'.
'72
Nason 8. Lowrey was a local preachor of unLlsual ability and preached oft.an
at the Palistine church. James L Robinson and Henry B. Rawls were also local
9reachers. When the church \'las buH t i t was tHO stories. The upper story \,as
a Masonic Hall.
For several years they held th'"ir mee tings in the old lOG
church before the pres'E,nt church was built. There is an old Hasonic chest that
used to sit in the middle of the old chl.lrch that ,,'as moved to the ne" hall
when the church Has completed.
The Baptists built a church about two miles north of Johnsville on the hill
north of the spring on a branch and namGd it Smyrna.
The ruling spirits in
that church were Nelson B. York, Sam I'leek and Irwin. Their preachers were Rev.
Duboise, Rasberry and Denson.
These three churches had about the same number
of members who attended regularly, and all three Here in a flourishing condition.
The people of that county in 1859 built an Academy on the Sol Bronson place
two miles southwest of Johnsville and establi,shed one of the best schools in
the state. They em9loyed a man named HOGue <lho had been teaching for a number
of years at Nt. Holly in Union COllnty,
He was a Presbyteri,an preacher and a
Southern man. His wife was from IOHa. He was one of the best educators in this
part of the country, He I~as not long in building up as fine a school as there
was in the state. I went to him four years and his mQral
and
intellectual
training has lasted me through life.
When the call for volunteers came in 136'1 sixteen of the larger boys joined
the army. Among them were J. E. Hampton, Mack Pagan, George Hogue, Jim Stuart,
Sidney Walls, Jim York, Bob Ramsour, Sam Godfrey and Bom Chambers.
Most all
of the young men in that country joined too, a"d they organized the old Gee
shop that stood not far from where T. B. CraiG'S store nOI~ stands. If my memory serves me ri.ght they elected Buck l1cKinney' captain and Dr. Ross li.eutenant.
After they had their brown geans uniforms rr,ade, Hhi.oh consi.sted of round-about
coats and trousers with red stripes dOlm the legs, they marched to the Presbyterian church to have services and bid their friends "goodbye" before thEIr left
Johnsville.
We younger boys yearned to go. vie went back to school :)ut the Hfe was g:m€.
There ,.as a shadow of sadness over the patrons of the school as Hell as on the
bro'. of the Hogues, for their boy, George, had u;,one with the other boys. Every
m::>rning Nr. Hogue opened school \,ith prayer asking the good lord to guard and
protect the boys at the front.
Every nOI; and then r,eHS came that some of the
boys were dead or wounded. How well I reme",ber the day' "hen the sad neHS ca;ne
to Hr. and Mrs. Hogue that their boy George "as dead. I,men the conflict Closed
only a few of that noble band of young lIi'oO returned to their desolated homes.
After the war most of the peo:ole moved to Texas, Hhile s,:"ne w:Jved to other
oarts of Arkansas. Now there are not many of the old time~5 there; Nack Pagan,
L. E. York and Billy Martln are about the only ones left.. A great many of the
old ti;ners have died and are buried in ~he three "raveyards there.. There Here
only two graves at the Palestinll church \"hen \'16 mowed there, and none at the
Baptist and Presbyterian, One of the braves ",as a man nam8d Boyd and the other
Has a man who died at Lock 3tuart's place in 1352,
I will quit. I could write a book detailing what I knc''N of that COLmtry and
its peoole, so I will close and subscribe myself as one of the old settlers and
your life long friend.

There were numerous graves that were marked with rocks or outlined with rocks
or shells. It is one of the oldest cemeteries in northeast Arkansas. Nany of the
graves date back to 18)0 or even earlier. There are no markers on the earliest
graves. Nost of my ancestors are buried there. One of my gr-gr-grandfathers,
John Eddy. was buried there in 18)9. He was born 1788 in Queensbury, N. Y. and
was a son of John Eddy. 1754 _ 1817. one of the "Minute Men" in the Revolutior..

GREEN _ IHLLIAMS - GITCHELL - BORRER
My gr-grandfather carne to Texas from Conway Co. Ark. The 1860 census states
that James and Sarah Green lived in Gonzales Co. Tex.
James was born in Ark.
A child, \villiam M.,
and Sarah in lll. James was 37 in 1860. Sarah was 32.
age 18 in WOO, Has born in Ark.
We think they Came to Texas in 1847, as the
next child, Fanny, 13 in 1860, was born in Texas.
Sarah's mother l~as Selia Williams, we think, with one brother we know of,
Aaron Williams from Tenn., then IlL. and believed to have come to Ark., then
Texas. Selia Williams m. Gitchell (or Kitchell) had one child Sarah. Gitchell
died l-lhen Sarah was small; Selia remarried Elige Borrer when Sarah was about
six years old. Selia and Elige Borrer were supposed to be buried in Arkansas,
we think in Conway Co. Selia was b. Mar. 1, 1809; Elige Borrer b. Oct. 6, 1802.
Their first Child, James Isaac Borrer, was b. Jan. 1), 1829. According to 1860
census Sarah Gitchell Green was b. 1828, but her tombstone says Aug. 10, 1823.
