His death certificate reads that his wife was Edith L. (Parker) Becker. O. A., Julia, Edith, and Jessie are all in the same plot and have matching stones. Married 4 times. His wives were Vena Morgan, Julia (Prunkard) Coates, Mary Elizabeth (Cordell) (Moore) Arnold, and Edith L. Parker. - Posted by Linda Skelton Corbin: Moonshine, Guns, and Human Bones I was looking at the research notes for Ozro A. Arnold in Seligman Cemetery on MoBarry today. (They are always so helpful.) Anyway, I noticed that his 3rd wife (of 4) is not noted. Mary Elizabeth Cordell Moore Arnold, 1881 Tazewell County, Virginia - 1930 Topeka, Kansas. This is a synopsis of many (sometimes conflicting) newspaper articles about them. O. A.(Ozro) Arnold and Mary Cordell received a license to wed in mid-March 1921 in Barry County, MO. Later reports indicate that they were married in April. On July 30, 1921 in the White River hills 4 miles south of Clantonville, Benton County, AR, a big family ruckus occurred. O. A. Arnold had a copper-still by a spring about 200 yards from the house. He had a 50 gallon barrel of mash and was manufacturing moonshine. Mary objected to his moonshining and threatened to report him to the authorities if he didn't cease. An ugly argument occurred. O. A. shot at his wife which resulted in a minor wound on her leg. Mary may have shot a gun before or after O. A. shot. Hostilities continued and a bit later (George) Grant Moore, Mary's 17-year-old son by a former marriage, shot a shotgun from a distance at his step-father, wounding him in the head which resulted in loss of vision in one eye. O. A. walked a mile and crawled a hundred yards to a neighbor's home. The neighbor telephoned O. A.'s friends who came and picked him up and took him to his mothers house in Seligman, MO for medical attention. At first Mary and her son Grant Moore were arrested. Then O. A. Arnold was arrested. There were one or two grand jury hearings. The hearings were very popular as entertainment with the folks in Rollers Ridge Township. Newspapers indicate that Mary's 15 year old twins(girl and boy) were at the hearings. Mary Arnold was not indicted and the charges against Grant Moore were later dismissed. O. A. was tried in October for assault with intent to kill, resulting in a hung jury. He was due to be tried again in the Spring, but there the newspapers go silent on that matter. Evidently, the farm that this event occurred on belonged to Mary Cordell Moore Arnold. In September or October 1921, a quantity of human bones were discovered on that farm. The claim was made that they were the bones of a certain Canadian soldier(M. R. Allen Bean) who had visited the farm in 1919 and had been missing since. The coroner obtained (from Mary?) an address for the soldier in Maine, USA and wrote him a letter. To the coroner's surprise, he received a reply from Allen Bean. Bean stated that he had never been to the farm near Garfield, Arkansas, but he had met Mary Cordell in Seligman, Missouri. Bean stated that he was not now, nor ever had been missing, and his friendship with Mary Cordell was no ones business. - Osroe Arnold, age 24, first married Vena Morgan, age 22, on Dec. 8, 1900 in Cassville, Barry Co., MO. - December 4, 1909, Saturday, Cassville Democrat - Marriage License: O.

Both resided in Borne, Overijssel, Netherlands, which is about 16 to 19 km from Lonneker. A little over a month later, they were married on Thursday, November 28, 1867 in Borne. The newlyweds lived in Almelo, Overijssel, Netherlands "in the house standing in district three". Hermanus was employed as a weaver.

On February 14, 1989, Dina's grandson Harold described his memories of going to Phillips County, Kansas after the death his Grandma Kroeze when Harold was four years and 10 months old. He and his mother Ella took the train from Western Kansas. He recalled being at Aunt Martha's house early in the morning and asking to see Grandma Kroeze. She wasn't in a casket yet, but on a couch without a back. Aunt Martha pulled a sheet off of Grandma Kroeze's face and he remembered his mother Ella reaching down and giving Dina a love pat and he saw his mother lift her apron to wipe tears from her eyes. This was his only memory of his Grandma Kroeze, but he believes he probably had seen her before this. | Photo Deceased Beverly Sweeney Census Cemetery Records Notes Phyllis Long |

She was born June 1858 at Sterlingshire, Scotland and was married 1897 to James Dobbie at Clydebank, Scotland, came to this country May 1903. Died March 24, 1910, age 51. She attempted to put fire out that was burning near the house when her clothes caught on the wire fencing and she attempted to free herself. The fire reached her quickly and she burned to death - The Springdale News from The Eureka Springs Flashlight, April 8, 1910 - Mrs. J. Dobbie living between Beaver and Seligman, was burned to death yesterday while fighting fire at her home. The details are meager but the supposition is that Mrs. Dobbie was working against the forest fires that have swept so much of the adjacent territory and that her clothing caught on fire. Mr. Dobbie is a stone mason and was absent from home, at work at his trade, and his wife and daughter were alone at the home. Their place is the one along the Missouri and North Arkansas road, having rock walls for fences, stone stable partly completed. The sad accident occurred yesterday and the sufferer lingered several hours before death relieved her. It is one of the saddest tragedies that ever occurred in the neighborhood and the tenderest sympathy is extended the bereaved. - | Death Certificate Donna Cooper Photo Deceased Beverly Sweeney Obits Phyllis Long |
