Fathers of the Ridge, Vol. III, Genealogical
Sketches of Greene and Clay Counties -
1980........LATTA - William S. Latta was born in North Carolina in 1822. His
wife, Bennetta, was born in Tennessee in 1826. In 1850 this family was living
in Union County, Illinois and their children were: John, 1842, Susannah, 1844; and
Joseph, 1848. John and Susannah were born in Tennessee, but Joseph was born in
Illinois. By 1860 the Latta family had moved to Greene County and settled in
Bradshaw Township. By this latter date five more children had been added to the
household: A.E. (a daughter), 1850; W.1 (a son), 1852, Mary E., 1854; Thomas, 1857;
and Sarah, 1859. A.E. was born in Illinois and W.1 in Tennessee. The
three younger children were born in Arkansas. By 1870 William S. Latta and his
wife, Olive C., were still living in Bradshaw Township and by this date three more
children had been added to the household: Martha B., 1861; Audey L., 1864, and Eller
Jane, 1869. William S. Latta is buried at the New Hope Cemetery in Clay County,
Arkansas. His marker shows dates of 1821 and 1911. In 1850 the Spencer
Laws family was living in the same neighborhood with the Latta family in Union
County, Illinois (see LAWS, Vol. III)
LAWS - Spencer Laws was born in North Carolina in
1811. His wife, Mary, was born in Tennessee in the same year. In 1850 this
family was living in Union County, Illinois and their children were: David, 1834;
John, 1840; and James, 1846. All the children were born in Illinois. Mary
Powell, born in North Carolina in 1788, was also a member of the household at this
time. By 1860 the Laws family had moved to Greene County and settled in
Bradshaw Township. James Laws, son of Spencer, was still living at home at this
time. Vercilla Forrest, born in Tennessee in 1854, was also a member of the
household. David Laws married a woman named Alpha, born in Kentucky in 1839.
In 1860 David and Alpha were living next to David's parents in Bradshaw Township.
Their children at this time were: H. E. (a daughter), 1856; and E. P. (a daughter),
1858. H.E. was born in Illinois and E.P. in Arkansas. It should be noted
that, in 1850, the Laws family lived in the same neighborhood with the William S.
Latta family in Union County, Illinois. The Latta family also moved to Bradshaw
Township in Greene County during the 1850s.
2004 NOTE: Could Mary Laws be a sister to
William S. Latta? She was born in TN and William's wife was born in TN.
Was this where William met his wife? Notice from the census below that his
wife's parents were also from NC.

Jacob

very
late in

until
he was
sent to

for

ill. He
like
most of
his
brothers;
had
very
little
to say
and was
not
easy to
engage

Family
members
say
that
Lizzie
was a
very
strong
minded
individual
and
ruled
her
family
in a
traditional
manner.
She was
a very
likeable
individual
and
helpful
