The certain any of them ever resided on the original owner of that tract was Stephen property. Most Arkansas histories do not list Downs, a former private in Brown's any Haskins among the earliest pioneers, and Company, 23d Regiment of Infantry.

The Arkansas Family Historian 129 Kinspeak, Something Else to Call Your Relatives by Noonan Hopwood, Jr., is based on a system of three letter acronyms, which can be logically combined into a definition of almost any fiunily relationship of significance. An attempt has been made to provide a unique term fur each relationship, e.g. a father-in­ law, HUSPAT, is the spouse's father. Tbe intent of this work is to recognize the need for more adequate definitions and to emphasize the value of a suitable reference for different relationships to define extended family relationships. Copies of the book are available from Kinspeak, Box 1723, Dearborn, MI 48121, for $7.95 plus $2.00 for shipping and handling (Plus $,48 tax for Michigan residents). [FYH]
