Post Office: Wet Glage Roll: M653_611 Page: 0 Year: 1860 Head of Household: Henry Laughlin
Take yourself back to the late 1860's or early 1870's. Civil War sentiments are still running strong. Henry Laughlin and his wife, Americus, are living in eastern Camden County. Henry, a 2nd Lieutenant in the Confederate Army during the War, is a strong Confederate sympathizer surrounded by Union supporters. Recognizing the danger of their situation they move to Arkansas to surround themselves with other Confederates. Henry is killed by bushwhackers anyway.
Following Henry's death, Americus returns to Camden County with her 12 children, including James, the oldest, plus Henry Jr., Josh, George, and Richard. Their family farm was on the property that is now Lake Valley, with the farmhouse thought to be somewhere near the catalpa tree on what is now, tee #14 on the Lake Valley Golf course, and a barn at the top of the hill behind #17 tee. The Forest Grove School was located in the vicinity of what is now John Bearden's house, across Highway 54 behind #15 tee.
James Bunch and his family, including son Emanuel, lived across the river in the area that is now Normac Estates. The Bunch's were strong Union supporters. Bad blood boiled between Richard Laughlin and Emanuel Bunch as a result of the two families divergent war sentiments, and on November 21, 1873, while on his way to the Forest Grove School, Richard was attacked by Emanuel Bunch and hit in the head with a rock that resulted in his death. The attack would have taken place somewhere in the area around #15 tee. Emanuel Bunch was ultimately convicted of 2nd degree manslaughter and served 2 years in the penitentiary. His father, James, was also charged but was found not guilty. About a year before the murder, Richard's sister Narcissa Laughlin had married Emanuel Bunch's brother, Isaac, which surely made for a case of strange bedfellows following the murder.

Notes:
In addition to the current Lake Valley Country Club property, the Laughlin offspring settled much of the surrounding area. James held the property that is now Lake Valley, and owned the land all the way to the river. His brother, Henry Jr. acquired the property that is now Old Kinderhook, brother Josh owned land across the river while another brother George owned land further down the river. James' family sold the farm after the lake was built, under the impression that the raising water would mean falling property values.
More tragedy hit the James Laughlin family in September 1904, when his son Floy was killed in a sawmill accident on the family farm. Floy was preparing to be married and was sawing lumber to build a house when a board kicked back and hit him in the abdomen. He died a day or so later on September 2, 1904, presumably from internal injuries. The sawmill was set up on the family farm, which very possibly puts it on what is now the club property.
Another interesting story involving James Laughlin has it that he learned that his sons were carrying pistols, planning to settle another feud when the opportunity arose. Upon learning they were carrying iron James took the pistols from his boys and dropped them into the family well. Is this the same cistern / well that is near the catalpa tree on #14?
