On this and the following pages, I've tried to avoid listing living people. If you see Descendants Living, that means the next generation has living people. I wanted to show which branches have continued to the present day, but at the same time preserve people's privacy.
If you see anything wrong here, or if you want anything added, PLEASE LET ME KNOW!
James Lewis Ruark had lived in Lawrence County, Illinois, and had married his first wife there. By 1899 he had moved to Clay County, Arkansas where he married his second wife. He raised his two daughters there.
