Is James W. Nail a Watts Descendant?
I just received copies of the Fort Smith Arkansas criminal court case for James W. Nail and 3 others. The crime was for cutting wood on government land in 1891. The three tried for this same case were James W. Nail, E. Pipkin and Samuel Eddy. It mentions a saw mill called "Nail & Pipkin" that was located in Crawford County, Ark. Would anyone know which James W. Nail this would be? I am trying to find out if he was the gGandson of John Nail & Malinda Watts. If so, he would possibly be the brother to my GG Gndfather. Would appreciate any facts, stories that go with this information. Thanks
