Thanks for the reply Samantha. No, I don't know W.D. Jr. There is/was another GATLIFF family in the Conway AR area, but I never found a close family connection to them and I just looked in the phone book and they are no longer there.

If you would like to compare notes you may contact me direct at jorgegrande@comcast.net I have traced my line back to Wales in the 1600s. They came from Wales through England, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Kentucky, Texas (there's still a large group of them there), then into Arkansas in the mid to late 1800s. George
