Arie Ella Day married to Benjamine Pendleton Goolsby MS/AR
Looking for information on Arie Ella Day married to Benjamin Pendleton Goolsby. Arie was born in Union County, MS around 1879.She allegedly died in Craighead County Arkansas around 1919-20 during the Great Flu Epidemic of Arkansas.She is suppose to be buried in an unmarked grave in a cemetery near Lake City Arkansas.
Benjamin P Goolsby was born 1876 Lafayette Co MS, and died Hickory Flat, MS (Benton Co) 1933.He is buried at Pine Grove Cemetery in Benton Co. MS
They resided in Craighead Arkansas until Arie died.Her maiden name was Day. They were sharecropping near Lake City,Craighead County, Arkansas and she was buried in a cemetery there. I don't know the name of it and I have been told that there is no marker on her grave or record of the location of her grave. After her death, my grandfather (Benjamin Pendleton Goolsby) brought William Alonzo aka Lonnie W., Flossie, Artie and Marie back to Mississippi where he brought them up. My understanding is that he did not remarry and that he died in 1933.
does this sound familiar to anyone.Any information would be greatly appreciated.
