Looking for more information on my great-grandfather's family. I know that
his father was James A. Black b. 10/1867 ILL. who married Cora Henry b. 2/1877
Ark.
The census reports that James's father was born in PA and his mother in
England and Cora's parents in Mississippi.

This is a long shot. John Taylor Black was born in 1890 in Dardanelle Ark.
(Yell Co.) and my family like most during that time were sharecroppers in
Western Arkansas and are not celebrated.

Any cousins with information please give me a yell.
