Hi Brenda,

I am so sorry to be delayed in replying to you. I don't have anything
further on Orval. It certainly appears that these might be the same family
as yours. I checked for the Chism name in the 1900 Izard County census and
found these:

Newburg Twp, Izard County, AR, 12th Census of June 1900

CHISM, GabrielheadwMar 1868 32 md11AR AR AR
Elizbethwife wJan 1870 30 md 11 7 6AR TN TN
Lorena M.dauwJan 1889 11 sAR AR AR
David W.sonwSep 1890 9 SAR AR AR
William E.sonwApr 1892 8 sAR AR AR
Enoch M.sonwAug 1895 4 sAR AR AR
Homer T.sonwDec 1897 2 SAR AR AR
Owen W.sonwSep 1899 8/12 sAR AR AR

In the information above, here's a key to what is listed:

This couple's ages follow the date of birth, their marital status, the
number of years married, their place of birth, their father's place of
birth, their mother's place of birth.
And, beside the mother, the numbers mean that she had seven children in
all, but only six were living at the time of this census.

Unfortunately, I have scraps of information, and not complete histories. I
have no idea how Vera CHISM is related to Ben, sorry!

In the Cemetery book, I found on page 96 the following:

Chism,Eunice Collins03 Jan 190605 Mar 1950Flat Rock Cemetery
Chism, Gabriel L.30 Mar 186511 Mar 1922Flat Rock Cemetery

and on page 384:

Chism, Nellie C.001906001993Wayland Arbor Cemetery
Chism, Owen W.001899001966Wayland Arbor Cemetery
