Robert Snodgrass <a href="ar.html#52">1880 Crawford Co AR</a>] <br> <br> History of Benton County WASHINGTON COUNTY. John R. Flinn,merchant and miller of Evansville, is the son of Hugh and Martha A. (Cottrell) Flinn. The father was born in Ireland in 1803, and the mother in Alabama in 1806. The father immigrated to America in 1835; had previously served a seven years' apprenticeship at the stone-cutter's trade, and was an excellent workman. He cut the columns for the Missouri State capitol, and did the carving on the seminary at the capital of the Indian Territory. Having found his way to Arkansas. he made this State his home until his death, which occurred in 1880. The mother grew to womanhood in her native State, and here married a man by the name of Thurston. She bore him two children, and after his death she moved to Arkansas, where she married Mr. Flinn, and bore him two sons. She is still living. The youngest son, John R., was born December 15, 1847, in Crawford County, Ark., where he was reared and educated. In 1865 he married Miss Julia A. Snodgrass, a native of Franklin County, Ark., and to them were born nine children, six now living. After farming until 1875 Mr. Flinn left Crawford County, and moved to Washington County, locating in Evansville, where he bought the Evansville Grist and Saw-mill. This mill he has owned ever since, and has just added a cotton-gin, in which Mr. J. M. Chandler is partner. Mr. Flinn is a member of the Masonic fraternity, is Democratic in his politics, and has been postmaster at Evansville for eight years. His wife, his mother and his eldest daughter are members of the Presbyterian Church. <br> [the above found and submitted by Will Johnson]<br> <br> 1888 -- Petition to incorporate the town of Garfield was signed by a Snodgrass.

Democrat.<br> (from The Seligman, Mo. Sunbeam) Our little city was thrown into a great state of excitement on Christmas Eve. After the merry distribution of the many presents of the tree at the Union church and the dismissal of the crowd everything seemed bright and serene until a crowd of boys gathered on the street, some of whom were intoxicated, and a difficulty soon arose. It seems that Eugene Murray and Frank Snodgrass were the first to have words which resulted in blows. About this time, Abijah Fairchild, who was deputized to assist the constable in keeping order, arrived on the scene and attempted to quell the disturbance but Walter Murray, an older brother of Eugene, interfered and wanted the boys to fight it out. A few words passed between him and Fairchild when he threw off his coat, drew a knife and made at Fairchild, cutting him in the left side. Fairchild drew a pistol and fired three shots at Murray, the last one taking effect in Murray's head just above the left eye and penetrated the brain. Although unconscious he lingered for nearly 48 hours before death. The remains were interred at New Salem cemetery Friday. Abijah Fairchild's wound is not serious and he is now convalescent. At the coroner's inquest it was decided to hold him, and he was placed under a $3,000 bond to appear for preliminary examination before Squire Patterson on Tuesday, 31 Dec. This is a sad affair as both these young men belong to good families and were not of age, both being about 19 years old.<br> <br> <a name=13></a> 1900 Benton Co AR Census/Soundex<br> Yell Twp., 2-3-8-74:<br> George Snodgrass 28-M-MO/KY/MO Mar 1872<br> ---[wj - married in Washington Co, Arkansas 27 Dec 1896]<br> Olive Snodgrass 21-F-IL/IL/IL Jun 1878 wife [wj - Hodges]<br> Hester Snodgrass 2-F-AR/MO/IL Sep 1897 daughter<br> Bulah Snodgrass 11m-F-AR/MO/IL Jun 1899 daughter<br> [wj - See Forward <a href="ar.html#14">1910 Arkansas Benton Co</a>]<br> <br> <a name=54></a> 1900 Benton Co AR Census/Soundex<br> Brightwater Twp., 2-5-17-17:<br> Frederick Snodgrass 27-M-MO/PA/MO Aug 1872 [Frederick Lewis Snodgrass]<br> Cora E.
