Bernie and Grace!
It was Roger! I had to laugh when I read it again. It was you he was talking
to so you already have this information. But if you are like me its in a file
I haven't looked at in years.

It is such a long, long post you will want to read again on the archives. I
don't know whether my cut and paste will work here or not, Let's see?

Well, that doesn't work with things from the list so you might want to find
it by searching by the date. That would work if you want to read the full, many
paged posting.

Maybe Roger will pop on sometime and you two can catch up.
Beth

Descendants of William French


Generation No. 1


1. WILLIAM1 FRENCH died Bet. 1827 and 1830. He married NANCY CHAPMAN. She
was born circa 1778 in South Carolina.

Notes for NANCY CHAPMAN:

By Craig Ogilvie

1850 Case Street

Batesville, AR 72501

Nancy Chapman French was the first woman to bring the French name into

northern Arkansas. She and her husband, whom we now believe was named

William French, were true frontier pioneers. They arrived in the White River

Valley before Arkansas was a territory and long before it became a state.

Since there were no roads or trails to the area
