Looking for Stafford of Arkansas

I can trace my roots as far as my Grandfather Edward Evan STAFFORD who was married to Lela Gertrude IZEL in the early 1930's. They had seven sons Harold, Howard, Frank, Earnie, Donald, Eugene, Carl STAFFORD. All but Carl have passed away, including my father Donald Clarence (2003 in Wayne, Michigan). I'm curious to know more about my family, I would like to know where my Grandfather Edward ended up after leaving my Grandmother to raise seven boys on her own in the Cotton fields of Caraway Arkansas, and if I have extended family that shares my interest.
