Sometime in the 1870's, the families moved to Grant Co. AR where Green P's older bro. Enoch H. Vance, a lawyer, had settled. No markers were found but family believes Green Pryor and his wife, Millie J. are bur. in Lost Creek cemetery as some of their children and grandchildren are buried and they were living in area when they passed.
Ancestry gives dates so I'm listing them here as their burial:
