Robert 1849-1928
Jennie - 1850-1930
Robert J. Russell. Prominent among the successful farmers of Calhoun County stands the name which heads this sketch. Mr. Russell was born in Talladega County, Ala, May 28, 1849, the first child born to Nineva and Margaret Russell, who moved to Calhoun County in 1858. They had thirteen children, viz: Robert J., Francis A., Joyce A., Dixie A., James C., William H., Donie A, Dora E., Thomas H., Maggie, David W, John W. and George W. These children, with the exception of two, Maggie and Dixie A., who are dead, and William H., who resides at Fordyce, re residents of Calhoun County. His parents moved to Calhoun County when he was nine years, and here he was reared and schooled, receiving a limited education in the common country schools. He commenced doing for himself at the age of twenty-two years, choosing farming as his occupation, with which calling he has ever since been identified. He now owns a good farm of 195 acres of land, with eighty acres under cultivation. January 4, 1871, Mr. Russell was married to Miss Virginia A. Dunn. Her parents, E. P. and M. L. Dunn, were among the early pioneers of this section. By this marriage Mr. Russell has eight children, all living, viz: Robert P., John D., Wiley J., Mary A., Laura E., Ella M., Warner H. and Mattie L. Mr. Russell takes no active part in politics, but votes with the Democratic party. He is a member of one of Calhoun County's subordinate Wheels. Both he and his wife are members of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. (Biographical and Historical Memoirs of Southern Arkansas - Goodspeed Publishing Company - 1890)
