The following excerpt is from an article posted at arkansasonline.com
Asher Bagley Sr. served in the American Revolution as a private in the first New Jersey Regiment. Following the war, he settled in Saline County in about 1828 near the community known as Bland. He is buried in the Old Union Cemetery in that community.
His third great-grandson, David James Hoss Sr. of Rose Bud in White County, and other members of the Arkansas Society Sons of the American Revolution will remember Bagley in a grave-marking ceremony at 11 a.m. April 8 at the Old Union Cemetery.
Descendants of Bagley and members of the public are invited to attend the event, which is co-sponsored by the Casimir Pulaski and DeSoto Trace chapters of the Arkansas Society SAR.
I’ve recently learned that I have an entire family that I never knew existed. Asher Bagley, Sr. was one of those family members…he is my 4th great-grandfather. I’m very interested in learning more about this newly-found family. I would very much like to connect with David James Hoss, Sr. who is noted as Asher’s 3rd great-grandson in this article. If anyone can help me to do so, I would greatly appreciate it. Contact info is Cori @ kohsamui2001@ymail.com.
Thanks in advance.
