John S. Corley's family were in AR by 1854. They settled on Flat Top Mountain, south of Corley Springs and North of Mt. Magazine. They homesteaded 80 acres on Patent 27 Feb 1860, 40 acres were sold to Milo Holister by Porter L. on 10 Dec 1877, possibly because Cynthia had died just prior to that date.
