"I am looking for descendants of (and/or) information on the family of
Alexander G. BENTLEY. Mr. Bentley was originally from McNairy Co., Tn and was married first to Arminta J. COPELAND on 21 Jan. 1872 IN McNairy Co. They had 4 children: James C. Bentley; Woodard A.; Lindolph A.; and Dora Bell. Arminta J. died between 1878 (the birth of child #4) and 6 April 1884, as that is when Alex married Martha Caldona HAMM in McNairy Co., Tn. I am posting this query on the Cooke Co., Tx. page because information I received from the McNairy Co. mailing list indicates that Alex moved his family to Gainsville, Tex where he is buried. If anyone out there can help me, I would surely appreciate it."
