Description

Maggie and her husband, Cassius L. Pratt, moved to Washington County, Arkansas from Texas in the 1890s. They had four sons and two daughters, Joy (who later became Mrs. Joy Pratt Markham) and Evangeline (who later became Mrs. Evangeline Pratt Waterman Archer). In 1900, the Pratt family moved to Fayetteville, where they settled on what is now called Markham Hill. This story is about Maggie and her effort to build a road in 1926.
