W. and Olivia McCarley. He must have died around 1876 -- judging from when he is missing from the tax records. She died around 1883 also based on tax records and this land record. GEORGE McCARLEY WAS THE SON OF JOHN McCARLEY WHO DIED IN RED RIVER IN ABOUT 1848 OLIVIA McCARLEY WAS THE DAUGHTER OF CHARLES B. PERRY OF JOHNSON CO, ARKANSAS AND WILLIAMSON AND DAVIDSON CO, Tn THOMAS E. HARDEMAN WAS THE SON OF JAMES F. HARDEMAN AND MARY KELLY. JAMES HARDEMAN WAS BORN IN DAVIDSON CO TN AND DIED IN JOHNSON CO, AR IN 1844. *******************************
