Thank you for your reply. It is appreciated. I will list my queries about  
her.                                                                       
                                                                           
Do you have a birthdate and place for Mariah C. (McElroy) Tolleson. It     
appears she would have married Robert A. Tolleson in Pike County, Arkansas 
during the 1870s.                                                          
                                                                           
I have been unable to locate them in the 1910 and 1920 census. Robert A.   
Tolleson is enumerated with his daughter, Flora Mae Johnson and her husband
and family, in the 1930 census living at Altus, Jackson County, Oklahoma.  
                                                                           
Have you census information for her in 1910 and 1920?                      
                                                                           
Do you know when and where she died? Retha Adams of Pike County, Arkansas  
says there is a marker for Robert A. Tolleson in the Kirby Cemetery, Kirby,
Pike County, Arkansas ... From the 1930 census it appears she is deceased  
since she was not found living with her daughter and husband.              
                                                                           
Thank you.

I know some of the children of Martin A. Tolleson. I also know most of his 
great grandchildren from his son Asa and Minnie TOlleson. They had a son   
Roy and I know his children and most of them live in Kirby, Arkansas where 
I live. They are cousins of mine, distant. Martin Tolleson was the son of  
Thomas Jefferson Tolleson Sr. by his first wife Nancy Risenger. I am the   
granddaughter of Verner Tolleson, a half brother to Martin Tolleson, Verner
was a son of T.J. Tolleson Sr. and his second wife Susan Catherine Blocker.
I also have a picture of Martin A. Tolleson. If you will email me I can    
send it to you via email. Thanks.

I am also from Kirby, Ark. I was wondering ... about our connection to any 
Cherokee tribes from the eastern band. I was wondering if there was a      
connection to them when our family moved to Ark. I was also wondering if   
anyone knew more about Forrest Tolleson. I am the grandaughter of Cue J.   
Tolleson. Forrest Tolleson is my great-grandfather.

My gg grandfather, born in S.C. is listed as part Indian, his wife, Mary,  
born in North Carolina was suppoed to be full blood Cherokee Indian. They  
are the parents of Thomas Jefferson Tolleson, my g. grandfather and your gg
grandfather. Thomas Jefferson Sr. is the father of Martin A. Tolleson.     
Martin A. Tolleson is the father of Forrest Tolleston who is the father of 
Cue Tolleson who is the father of Jimmy Tolleson, Harold Tolleson and      
Martha E. Tolleson Wolfe. I think Jimmy Tolleson must be your father, born 
June 20, 1943. Lives in Kirby, Arkansas. I hope this helps you. We are not 
close kin to the Indians on the Tolleson side, as you can see by my        
message.

THE 1883 REAL ESTATE TAX BOOK FOR PIKE COUNTY, ARKANSAS

The Pike County courthouse at Murfreesboro was destroyed by fire in 1895.  
This real estate tax book was one of the very few records that were saved  
from that fire. The following (list) gives the name of the tax payer ... In
a few cases these records indicate that the tax payer had died within a few
years of 1883 and the word "Estate" or "Est." appears after the name.
