I am doing research on the Dr. John Marple of Newton County AR but I am at a dead end. Hopefully you may have some information in your Nichols file that may help. Dr. John Marple was born in Honeybrook Chester Co., PA June 17, 1818. He married Rebecca Young, born Abt. 1850, in Mt. Judea, AR. They had 4 children, John, Angeline, Samuel and a daughter that died at the age of 8. Angeline married Larkin Nichols. Samuel married Ada (not sure of maiden name, could have been Nichols or Wright). Samuel and Ada were married in Mt. Judea about 1896. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Barbara

Name: Tim Sparks <tims@harborside.com>
Date: 2000-02-06
Requested Surname: Sexton
Full maiden name, if known, of wife: Sexton
Comments:
In the book "Old Folks Talking" by Jim Liles, the following statement is made on page 323: Elsie Self Casey explained her Native American blood: the mother of Elsie's grandfather, Tom Self, was a Cherokee woman named Sexton, according to family history.
I am trying to prove my Native American heritage through my Sexton line. Does anybody know who Elsie's ancestors were in this Self/Sexton line? I personally spoke with Elsie about 18 months ago and I regret to say that she just could not remember her ancestors but at 92 years of age she's forgiven. A sister was also contacted but to no avail.
The book does state that Elsie was a Sparks. This is in error. It should read that she was a Self.
Again, any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
