Individual Details

Elizabeth was with her grandmother, Delitha Hays, in Tippah Co MS in 1850, age 4, b. MS.

In 1853 in Johnson Co AR, Delitha requested Elias Hays be made Elizabeth's guardian, stating that Elizabeth Vincent was her granddaughter.

In 1860, Elizabeth Vincent, age 14 and born in MS, was part of the household of Elias Hays in Johnson Co AR.

I may have located Elizabeth Vincent but more research will be needed. [Crawford Co AR marriage records for this time period were lost in a courthouse fire.] Living in Vine Prairie Twp, Crawford Co AR in 1870, was an Elizabeth, age 24, born in TN [she was more likely b. MS if this is Elizabeth Vincent]. Head of household was James Brada, age 46, Farmer, b. TN. Elizabeth was of course age 24, b. TN and most likely a 2nd wife based on the ages of the following children. I would suspect only the two youngest are hers. James, age 15, b. AR. William age 13, b. AR. John H. age 2 [could this be "John Hays"?] b. AR, Delithe M. E. age 4 months, born Feb. in AR, Sarelada age 16, b. AR, Samuel Nathan age 18, Farm Labor, b. TN, Jane Johnson age 24, b. TX. I cannot find this family in 1880.

Neither of these two younger children appear with Elizabeth in 1880.

I believe she is the "Edney Elizabeth Vinson" who married Jasper N. Arnold, 9 Mar 1871 in Franklin Co, AR. Franklin County lies between Johnson and Crawford Counties. There are multiple atDNA matches to my uncle from their descendants.
