1108	Charter member of New Hope Baptist Church, est. 7 Sep 1867 in Dardanelle. Joined by letter from Bethel Baptist Church From http://pages.suddenlink.net/eidson/History of New Hope Baptist Church.html The following is a transcribed word document of the above newspaper article. [Names of Eidson family forebears are highlighted (bolded and underlined)] History of New Hope Baptist Church Dardanelle, Arkansas - Thursday, May 3, 1945 Way back in 1867, shortly after the close of the Civil War, New Hope Baptist Church was organized. A band of men and women from Bethel Church, located in another community of Yell County, met together for the purpose. The exact date was September 7th, 1867. The name of those people may mean little to us now—it has been so long ago. Yet descendents of some of these pioneers are among the leading citizens of our county. The Adams, Grace, Huckaby, Cole, Thomas, Cowger, Eidson, Jackson, Gateley, Dacus, Veazey, Brinson, and Banks families, and many others played leading parts in the early development of our County and its resources. So the Church of New Hope was founded long before most of us were born. It is interesting to note the difference of disciple of the early Church and our modern Church. To use a familiar expression, the members “had to walk the line.” If they did not do so, they found themselves on the outside. They had a rule then that forced attendance. If more than two Church Conferences were missed the guilty parties were called upon to give the reason why. Sounds odd, doesn’t it, to those of us in this present day. And many were punished for taking part in worldly pleasures that pass unnoticed in this modern time. The charter members of the New Hope Church had no building of their own to worship in at the beginning. They used an old log house nearby for about three years. This building was known as the “Old Chapel” or “Dobson Springs.” It was later used as a school house for many years. Many of the leading citizens of the county received their early education in this old cabin. However, New Hope afterwards constructed a building of their own and worshipped there for about thirty-six years. They then constructed a two-story building in conjunction with the Odd Fellows Fraternal Order, each sharing equally in the cost. This building had a very tragic ending after about fifteen years’ use. On a Sabbath morning in March 1920, the church building burned A couple of youth met early that morning and attempted to start a fire in the heating stove. By mistake, they poured the contents of a gasoline can on the fire, causing an explosion. One of the youths, a boy named Ray Massey, was badly burned, and after several weeks of intense suffering, he died. Again, the Church was without a place to worship, but they later constructed a modern frame building, and they still are using that today. Space does not permit a complete list of Pastors who have served during the church’s 78 years of history, but we can say that New Hope has had some of the strongest preachers in the state, including L. R. Barnes, J. R. G. W. N. Adams, J. A. Meyers, Dr. (?) B. Searcy, W. E. Kimbourgh, G. (?) Faulkner, Chas. F. Wilkins, F. G. Dodson, who is now a Chaplain in the U. S. Army, Loyd Pryor and many others. He present Pastor is Rev. Homer Bridges (?), a graduate of Ouachita College of Arkadelphia. He is also Pastor of the Dardanelle First Baptist Church. So New Hope Baptist Church, with all its trials and difficulties, has been a power for good in the community and the surrounding country. For several years now New Hope has been closely associated with the First Baptist Church of Dardanelle both being served by the same Pastor. It may not be to the credit of the country Church in years gone by, but the membership paid their pastor very little salary, so they couldn’t be charged with preaching for the money. They learned, however not to depend upon their charges for a living, but supported themselves by hard labor. Civilization and Christianity owe much to those “old timers,” with their strict religious convictions and earnest Christian living. All honor to them! Before I close I want to list the Charter members of the New Hope Baptist Church, and tell where they came from: • Elder J. R. G. W. N. Adams and wife Sarah Adams, and daughter, S. A. E. Adams, J. G. Grace, Alfred Huckaby and wife, Nancy T. Huckaby, all with letters of dismission from Bethel Church, Yell County, Arkansas. • Ann Moore, Baptist Church, Franklin N. C. • S. W.

It was yellowed and brittle with age. The condition of the clipping is seen in the photocopy, faded and torn in some places. The incident concerning gasoline on an open fire was a cautionary tale of my childhood. A personal note. John Eidson listed herein as a charter member is my great grandfather. Also T. E. (Turilla) Huckaby, his future bride and my great grandmother is also listed. Among the former pastors listed is my uncle Dr. F. G. Dodson, husband of my aunt Nora Lee Eidson Dodson. Dodson, after an honorable discharge from the Army, completed his Doctorate at Golden Gate Seminary, Oakland, California. These four along with Roy and Vernie Eidson and several aunts, uncles and cousins are interred in New Hope Cemetery. See the list in the link referenced below. A link to New Hope Cemetery, Dardanelle, Yell County, Arkansas tombstone listings and web page of Photos from Yell County. One other note. The article states that Dobson Springs also served as a schoolhouse. It was indeed a one-room schoolhouse and my Daddy, Harold D. Eidson and his sister, Kitty Eidson Miles, were teachers there in the early 1920s after graduating high school. Frank Grace, long-time Committee Member for New Hope Cemetery, told me stories of being taught by Daddy at the Dobson Springs school. One story Frank told happened when he was a first grader. It seems a thunderstorm blew in with heavy lightning and thunder. Frank was so frightened that he bolted out the front door on foot for the safety and comfort of home and Momma. Daddy went after him on horseback to retrieve him and bring him safely back to school to finish the day. Harold D. Eidson, Jr May 6, 2015 eidson@southwestern.edu	Huckaby, Alfred (I3706)

1123	Cicely, whose maiden name is not known (according to Dorman), arrived in Virginia near the end of August, 1611 aboard the Swan with Sir Thomas Gates. 50V74-80 Arrived in 1610 (or 11) on the Swan, age 10. "Cecily Reynolds was born about 1600 at Waymouth, Dorsetshire, England, daughter of Thomas Reynolds and Cecily Fitzpen. Cecily arrived on August 1610 at Jamestown, VA on the ship "Swan" under the asupices of several near-relatives of Dorsetshire. She made her home with Capt. William Pierce and his wife, Joan. In 1615, in the Pierce home in Jamestown, VA, she married her first husband, Thomas Bailey. Thomas was a young Governor's Guard and had come to Jamestown, VA in 1612. Thomas died of malaria in 1619, leaving their only child, Temperance, born 1617, which married Richard Cocke about 1632. Cecily Reynolds Bailey married (2) Samuel Jordan (of Jordan's Journey) on 20 Sept 1620. The Jordons' famous neighbors were, to the south, John Rolfe, who had married the young Indian Pocahontas, daughter of Chief Powhatan. After her death, Rolfe wed in 1619, Jane Pierce, daughter of Capt. William Pierce. John was killed by Indians in the 1622 "Great Massacre." A neighbor to the north was Capt. John Woodlief who in 1619 hosted the first Thanksgiving in America at his Berkeley Plantation. Authentication to this as the first Thanksgiving - and not the one in 1621 in Plymouth Plantation - is contained in a mandate from the London Company to Capt. Woodlief, saying "We ordain the day of our ships' arrival at the place for plantation on the land ofVirginia (Berkeley Plantation) shall be yearly kept holy as a day of Thanksgiving to Almighty God." Presidents John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson officially recognized this event." - Article taken from"The Second Boat", Vol 12, Number 4, Sept-Oct 1991. DEATH: Ancestry.com says she d. 9 Dec 1660, Farrar's Island, Virginia Ancestry.com provides quite a lot of information about Cicely's parents and their ancestors. No proofs, but lots of stuff. William Farrar was the third son of John Farrar, the Elder. He arrived in Virginia in Aug 1618 aboard the Neptune with Lord De LaWarr. In 1623/4, Sisley Jordan was listed in a muster at his home atJordan's Journey. Shortly after her husband's death, she seemingly had agreed to marry Rev. Greville Pooley. Instead, she married William Farrar and the good Rev. sued in the first breach of promise suit in the colonies. The case was eventually remanded to England and back to Virginia, being resolved in Jan 1624/5. Connie Lapallo indicates that Jane Peirce was Cicely's sister. She hypothesizes that Cicely remained behind in England when her parents came to Virginia since she was only 9 years old. At the age of 10, she would be given the same rights as any adult in terms of rights to land as an Ancient Planter. Therefore, Cicely remained behind, staying with her family in Dorset, until they emigrated, arriving in 1610 / 1611.	Reynolds, Cicely (I5307)
