Research Notes

First Marriage to Felix G. Newman, would make him a bigamist:

POSSIBLE marriage records, but unusual if true:

• "Arkansas, County Marriages, 1837-1957," database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NMPR-K8F : 18 March 2019), Mary Stringer in entry for Felix G Newman, 10 Jul 1853; citing Marriage, Jackson, Arkansas, United States, county offices, Arkansas; FHL microfilm 1,290,121. (This seems odd, since Felix G. Newman may have been married at the time.... and he moved to Texas with his family. Needs more research.)
