Wallace, Bob
The following story was told by Mrs. Mary Vinson, who lived just northwest of Floyd, and also by Mr. Perry Centers, as he heard it from his grandmother.
“RIFT AMONG NEIGHBORS: After the fall of Vicksburg, there was a rumor that the “Yanks” planned to take Floyd next. This rumor persisted and fell on the ears of a very interested soldier. The Confederate army was in a state of disarray, weak from lack of food and defeat. Soldiers were leaving every day. The interested soldier was Bob Wallace, and he managed to leave and get across the big river. He was on his way to Floyd as fast as he could go by foot when he came across a mule grazing by the road. He took possession of the mule by his mane, hoping to ride him part of the way. He came to a cabin without anyone at home. Here he found rope and a mule collar and took both, making a halter for the mule out of the rope and sometimes sitting on the collar to ride. Finally he and the mule made it to Delhi. Here a man with a rested horse carried the news of the impending danger to Floyd.”
“Mr. Wallace reached Floyd after the danger was over and continued on to his home which was located where the Wallace Landing Road reaches Boeuf River today, taking the mule with him.”
The leader of the Home Guard warned every man and called them to arms, but with most of them away from home for one reason or another he decided on a ruse. He sent out a man to warn the invaders the town was ready for them in full force. The raiders turned around and went back. The leader of the Home Guard was Jessee James.

RECONSTRUCTION: “The losses sustained by the plantations during the war years wee staggering. On February 2, 1866, James Watson, administrator of the Massingill Estate, testified in probate court, ‘When I accepted the succession n 1863, it consisted of land, slaves, and personal property amounting to $18,160.00. Since that time, the slaves, whose value was $11,150.00 have been emancipated and are therefore lost to the estate. Because there was a danger that the personal property would be stolen, I was forced to sell, and received payment in Confederate Treasury notes, which have since become valueless. At the time, there was a cotton crop growing, estimated at 65 bales, but this was confiscated. So, an estate that was good for all its indebtedness when I took over, has become, by the misfortunes of war, hopelessly insolvent.” From the book “A Place to Remember”, by Georgia Pinkston.

White, W. M. Corporal
17th Texas Infantry, Company E. William was born in Tennessee in the 1839 but came to Texas when he was 12. He joined the 17th Texas Infantry, Company E, at Camp Terry, Texas, in early 1862. The 17th was in Walker's Texas Division (Walker's Greyhounds). The 17th was in the 3rd Brigade with the 3rd Texas Inf., the 16th Texas Inf., the 19th Texas Inf., and the 16th Texas Cavalry (dismounted). Much of 1862 was spent in Arkansas where my grandfather took ill at Little Rock. He recovered and served with his regiment at actions in Louisiana at Lake Providence, Milliken's Bend, Young's Point, Richmond, LaFourche Crossing, Brashear City, Cox's Plantation, Donaldsonville, Bayou LaFourche, Harrisonburg, Fort Beauregard, Morgan Ferry, Atchafalaya River, Sterling's Plantation on Bayou Fordoche near Morganza, the campaign in Western Louisiana in the Teche Country, Opelousas, Barre Landing, Washington, Grand Coteau, Bayou Bourbeau, Carrion Crow Bayou, Buzzard's Prairie, Camp Pratt, and some of the operations against Bank's. Corporal White was captured at Fort DeRussy, La, on March 14, 1864. He was transferred to Baton Rouge, La, on March 17th and then on to New Orleans on March 20th, 1864. He was exchanged at Red River Landing on July 22nd, 1864. During this time the 17th was in almost continual fighting at Pleasant Hill and Mansfield in Louisiana. Then was sent North against Steele's Expedition in Arkansas. The unit was at Little Rock, Camden, Poison Springs, Marks Mills, Jenkin's Ferry, Saline River, and Tulip, Arkansas.

“Boats began to run on Boeuf River in the 1800’s and continued until the railroads began to serve the area. A boat landing was established and a warehouse built at ‘Point Jefferson’ on Boeuf River six miles east from the present site of Oak Ridge. Point Jefferson and Ion Landing, which was located near where Girard is today on Boeuf River, were both large shipping points for the settlers on both sides of the river. The arrival of a steamboat at these landings meant great crowds would assemble to see the boat, get drunk and have a good time. At Ion Landing, William R. Williams had a store and a race track, so says Mr. C. C. Davenport, son of Isaiah Davenport, the original settler.

With the result of the lawsuit over the removal of the courthouse from L.

“RIFT AMONG NEIGHBORS: Mrs. Flake‘s parents lived south of Floyd, the Dickersons, Roberts, and Cawthorn to the west, and none of them ever heard their parents or grandparents say that Floyd was damaged very much. It is inconceivable to me that the children of parents living in Floyd during the Civil War never heard of much destruction there. Janie Gibson‘s mother and mother-in-law were near Floyd, one on Colonel Lott‘s place to the east of Floyd, and the other on the Moore and Wilson farms, just north of Floyd on the Macon front. Janie never heard either say that Floyd was burned and she knows the Wilson and Moore homes wee not destroyed as her husband Ben Gibson tore the old Moore house down after they bought the place in the 1920‘s from John LeFevre.” From the book “Between the Rivers”, by Florence McKoin.

Leon LeFevre says in some communities they were known as the Miller Missionaries (the James Gang), because of their help to needy families. One story told by his father: “One day Jesse stopped to see the family of a friend who had lost his life in the war. He found the mother of five children crying and when he asked her why, she showed him a note from a Simon Witkowski who held mortgage on her little farm. This note said she would have to pay the debt or he would be forced to foreclose on the mortgage. This rang a bell in Jesse’s head - he saw his mother in this situation , and gave the widow the amount of money owed Mr. Witkowski, a Polish Jew and a very rich man. He told her not to turn the money loose until she had a receipt in her hand for it. He left a very proud and grateful family. The following day Mr. Witkowski called on the widow and demanded payment. To his surprise she was ready to pay. He gave her a receipt for the money and soon on h is way back home. Halfway to Caladonia, his home, a bandit with a handkerchief over his face stepped from behind a tree, covered the rider with his gun, while he relieved him of his watch and all the money he had.

Fire Dept. No. 1
[Banner-Democrat, Dec. 9, 1893]
The Providence Fire Company No. 1 was chartered in 1870, by twenty-one prominent and public-spirited gentlemen of the town, among whom were Col. Morgan, C. A. DeFrance, and David Dreyfuss, the only surviving member we know of. In a few years, however, the Company dwindled down to a few active members, but in 1875 it was completely re-organized, through the efforts of Col. Morgan. In 1883, the Fire Company bought their fine stream fire engine, which they called, out of gratitude for their re-organizer, LADY MORGAN, after his little daughter Emma. The headquarters of the Fire Company were then and had been for many years in Simon Cohn’s Opera House a very unsafe and unsecure building, not at all in keeping with the Company, and new quarters were for years talked about, and would have continued to be talked about, had not the fate and much regretted Jason Hamilton and Col. Morgan taken the matter in hand, superintended and soon finished the building of the present Firemen’s Hall. Both Col. Morgan and Jason Hamilton, and long as they lived, were the promoters, organizers, and managers of the Firemen’s annual picnic on the beautiful Arlington grounds. The youth of this town, now young men and young ladies, were year after year drilled by Col. Morgan, and recited verses composed by him for the different May festivities. The May Day was a glorious day with Colonel and we shall long remember him as we last saw him on the stage, on the picnic ground, his white hair, and white beard, somber attire and beaming countenance presenting such a strange contrast with the children’s curly hairs, and bright costumes, and faces flushed with a first stage fright. The children enjoyed the day, the parents enjoyed it, the town and country folks enjoyed it, and happier than all was Col. Morgan, the promoter and leader of the May Day.

An 1840 Arlington Wedding and A Most Dignified Judge
During a visit to the parish, in 1840, there was a wedding at 'Arlington' which is worthy of mention.
The Carroll Democrat, January 24, 1892.
"At that time and for some time previous, there had been a feud between the family of Arlington (the Pattons) and Judge B. (Bosworth) of Tensas, the influence of which was felt through all the ramifications of Carroll Parish society. At the time of the wedding there was but few members of the gospel in the country and the spiritual welfare of the people was not as clsoely looked after as the temporal, and it was occasionally that a man of God put in an appearance, either in town or country. But the contracting parties had so timed the event as to make it strike on his visits, but they made no allowance for bad weather, high water or impassable roads. So when the time came there was no minister to be had, and it became necessary to call in Judge Bosworth, who was regarded by man as Ishmal-ite against whom all arms was raised, and whose arm was against all others. So he was requested to perform the ceremony, which he consented to do.
"When the oars of his skiff was heard on the lake, I was asked by Mr. Patten of Arlington to go with him to receive Judge B., which I did. On his approach to the door, Mr. P. said to him, "Walk in, Judge, we are friends for tonight." The only response was, "Show me the parties to be married".
"Judge Bosworth was a small man, but I thought then, and still think, on that occasion was the most dignified one I ever saw. He was at once invited into the house, the parties to be married were on the floor, when much to the surprise of some, and the alarm of many, and witout any effort of concealment, under each breast of the Judge's coat was a formidable weapon--on one side a pistol, on the other a Bowie Knife. After the ceremony which I think was the most impressive I have ever witnessed, he raised a glass of wine to his lips, saluted the bride and groom, and with a look of defiance, gracefully retired, much to the relief of many.
"The next time I saw Judge Bosworth was on the lake near his home. He had just one hand; the right, I think, shot off in an attempt to take forceable possession of his father-in-law's property. An attempt was made to impeach him as Judge, but like all such it failed, though if half of what was said of him was true, he richly deserved it. But he was a dignified, courageous, and competent judge. He died, I think, a paymaster in the army with the rank of Major to which he was appointed by President Polk. I saw him in Louisville in company with the new President on their way to Washington. The attention he received was marked; indeed there was something about Judge Bosworth that inspired respect to a greater degree than almost any man I know." By Jacob Owen.

"The next time I saw Judge Bosworth was on the lake near his home. He had just one hand; the right, I think, shot off in an attempt to take forceable possession of his father-in-law's property. An attempt was made to impeach him as Judge, but like all such it failed, though if half of what was said of him was true, he richly deserved it. But he was a dignified, courageous, and competent judge. He died, I think, a paymaster in the army with the rank of Major to which he was appointed by President Polk. I saw him in Louisville in company with the new President on their way to Washington. The attention he received was marked; indeed there was something about Judge Bosworth that inspired respect to a greater degree than almost any man I know." By Jacob Owen.

Poverty Point
A Rich Culture flourished Eight Centuries before Christ
The time was eight centuries after Egyptian slaves dragged huge stones across the desert to build the great pyramids. The place was a hemisphere away, in North America at a site now in northeaster Louisiana, and the people who fashioned Poverty Point mounds had probably migrated to this part of the world from Asia via the Bering Strait and Alaska.
These ancient people set for themselves was the building of a complex array of earthen mounds near what was then the banks of the Mississippi River. The central group of mounds consists of six rows of concentric octagonal ridges, five to ten feet high, with aisles at the corners leading to the center. The outer octagon measures three-quarters of a mile across. Only about half of the octagonal mounds remain, for Macon Bayou, which flows past the site, has eroded the original complex.
Four other mounds are nearby and noteworthy for their size and shape. Immediately to the west of the octagonal village lies Poverty Point Mound, a spectacular bird shaped mound measuring about 700 by 800 feet at its base and rising about 60 feet into the sky. Motley Mound, is another located due north of the village and is similar in size and shape, although the bird shape lacks a tail. A third earthen mound, called Jackson Mound, lies due
south and is like the other two. It has been theorized that the river or bayou washed away a fourth mound twenty centuries ago. It has been estimated that 5 million man hours has been devoted to building these massive structures.
One of the most remarkable aspects of this culture was the peoples willingness to import materials from great distances and their ability to adapt to the environment. An example of the later trait is found in the millions of hard brick-like clay balls found at the site. Made by hand and hardened in the sun, these balls were heated and tossed into food vessels as a method of cooking. It is known that stones were used at the time for this purpose, but since there were no stones at Poverty Point, clay ball were ingeniously substituted. Flint knives and spears were made from stones imported from thirty miles away, and soapstone vessels were made of material from the mountains of North Carolina 500 miles away.
Visit Poverty Point. It is located on HiWay 577, north of Epps, La., about 40 miles west and north of Vicksburg, Mississippi.

East Carroll Parish Headstone Pictures
I took pictures from a few of the cemeteries, the largest was the Lake Providence Cemetery, and some north of there on Hwy 65. Many of the pics, for one reason or another, were not very clear, and I apologize for that, maybe soon I can retake. I have been working on getting these pictures on FindAGrave, but it is very slow. I have a family and a job that I have to take care of also. There or over 2,000 pictures. If you have a request of a headstone in the Lake Providence area, maybe I can zero in on that picture now for you. I have been having requests for pics in Mississippi and south Arkansas and I am really unable to get to take pics for other counties or parishes. I live in Lonoke County, Arkansas and could maybe help with a pic from this area, and also I do a little picture taking up in Craighead County, Ark., since I have family in this area, but that is primarily around the Monette area. I will be continuing to place the headstone pics on FINDAGRAVE, please keep checking back. Please check there to see if your family member's headstone picture is there, and if not I will try to locate it and try to get it on there ASAP or send a picture of it to you by email. I will be spending a lot more hours placing many more pictures on FindAGrave.com
Here is Find A Grave:

P.S. I would appreciate ANY pictures, headstone or individuals pictures, that I can put on FindAGrave, and of course, any other pictures or information for my other research would be deeply appreciated also.
Email me at morechev@ipa.net for more information.
Thanks, Sandy
