ALLEE
I am looking for any info on my Allee Family and their grave site. I have looked through every cemetery you have listed and don't find them. Dewey Clarence Allee b. 26 Jan 1900 d. March 1983 ss shows Mineral Springs, Howard County, AR. Juanita Katherine Allee (Hines) b. 27 Jul 1919 Dallas, Dallas, Texas d. Jan 1984 ss shows Nashville, Howard County, Ar. Richard Wayne Allee b. 19 Jan 1959 Dallas, Dallas, Texas d. Sept 1978 ss shows Nashville, Howard County, Ar. Richard was only 19 at death. He was a passenger along with 2 or 3 of his friends in a pickup truck that rowed over on their way back home that night form I believe Hope, AR. in September 1978. All the other boys lived. So there could have been a write up in the paper about the accident he was a very poplar young man. Burial was right off a main two way busy street out of town that I can remember. Dewey and Juanita worked and lived on Chicken farms in the area. One son last known lived in the area 1999 Ronnie Lee Allee. Genealogy shows he lived there until 2002.
WESTBROOKS
I am searching for information on the location of the grave of Allen T. Westbrooks. He was the father of HJ Westbrooks who is buried in Fellowship cemetery. Allen T. Westbrooks is mentioned in Howard County Heritage as being an early settler in that area, circa the 1830's. I find in census records that he came to Lamar County Texas in 1860 with his wife, sons, and son James W. Westbrooks. I do not find him in any census record after that. Any information would be appreciated.

BROOKS
I am trying to find my 4th great-grandmother. My aunt told me that she is buried in Howard Co., but she doesn't remember what cemetery. My 4th great-grandmother's name is Jenny Brooks (or this is the name that is apparently on her tombstone). I do not know her birth year or date of death. I am hoping that you could help me in some or any way it will be GREATLY appreciated, or if you have a list of cemeteries in Howard Co. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.
