Rev. William A. Inman is a native of Clay County, Ind., born in 1851, 
and is the son of David L. and Sarah (Poe) Inman. David L. Inman was 
born in the "Palmetto" State, and when a very small boy was taken to 
Indiana, where, after attaining a suitable age, he adopted farming as 
his calling through life. He died in his adopted State at the age of 
forty-four years. William A. Inman resided in Indiana until he reached 
manhood, and in 1873 entered Bedford College, where he remained one 
year. He then began studying for the ministry, and at the age of 
twenty-one years entered the pulpit as a local preacher in the 
Christian Church. He preached the gospel in Clay County, Ind., until 
1880, at which time he came to Arkansas, but at the end of two years 
removed to Kansas. After remaining there three years he returned to 
Benton County, Ark., and took charge of the Christian Church at 
Garfield, and also expounds the gospel at Washburn, Rocky Comfort, and 
at a church on Sugar Creek, in Missouri. He has a good little farm of 
forty acres, which he purchased in 1887, and is devoting it 
principally to raising fruit. He was married in 1869 to Miss Armilda 
C. Duncan, by whom he has four children: Alonzo, Edward, Winfield and 
James M. Mr. Inman is a Democrat.
