Famous Ancestors & Relatives - How I connect to Herodia Long

Herodias (Long) Hicks Gardner Porter is my 11th Great Grandmother
http://www.rebelpuritan.com/More.html

Herodias (Long) Hicks Gardner Porter, and her marital hijinx also made Rhode Island talk. In 1644 she and her first husband, John Hicks, parted after Horred charged him with abuse and he accused her of whoredom. In 1655 her second husband, George Gardner, was tried for keeping John Hicks’ wife as his own. Gardner was found not guilty because the Hickses had been legally separated. However, in 1665 the forty-two year-old Horred asked for a divorce from George because they had never married. Horred got another separation from the shocked colony. Only a couple of years later she and John Porter, who was a good twenty years older than she, were tried for cohabitation.

How so?

So you may have seen this mailer in your mail from the "They Win You Lose Committee" with it's chair listed at M.F. Dillard. on further investigation and digging we find a lobbyist for DBH Management which has an address at 207 Church Street in Morrilton, Arkansas to be Camille A. Boggess who is listed as the the Treasure for the "TWYLC" and on the follow the money website she is listed as a lobbyist for the Conway County Legal Beverage Association.



Then when you google the CCLBA you find a reference on the SOS website to it and on its list of officers you find Otto Leinhard which is a person and the same name as the Budweiser distributor.


Now, it gets interesting but not to exciting. Based on information from Blue Hog Report we find that on 9/19/13 CCLBA contributed $5,000 dollars with a total contribution for the year as $8,000 to DBH 2 PAC.

Around 1896 Marshell Baker, a black, moved to Center Ridge, Arkansas, from Chicago. With money he had from a life insurance policy, he bought a house and some land and opened a saloon. The townspeople at that time didn't like a Negro owning land in their community, so two of the citizens decided to do something to remedy the situation. Alex Brinkley and Dr. Gilbert C. Chamness shot him one night, put his body in the house, and set the house on fire. His charred body was found the next day. One leg was missing where a dog had ripped it off to gnaw on.

No one explored the m…

Then I tried to search for the chairman's name. M.F. Dillard and hit a brick wall.

Next up was to look up the P.O. Box address listed on the mailer and found another wall of nothingness.

Next search will be through the secretary of states office.
