I seem to remember a local newspaper published weekly in Salem. Can anyone tell me when it stopped, and if there are copies on line, or available anywhere. I know my grandparents got the "Headlight" long after they moved to Florida...It should have lots of interesting family lore!!! Volamae

I hope you sent those same comments to LR. With the help of folks like yourself we will preserve these records at Powhatan.  I attended a meeting in LR today about the exhibits in the "new" courthouse. I think the volume of comments is having an effect. Keep it up, we need all the help we can get. L. Clark These records affect the very early Fulton Co. records... Fulton Co.'s area was once a part of Lawrence Co., Arkansas's territory

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/VV.2ADE/467 Message Board Post: From: Lloyd Clark at lwclark@cswnet.com MS Smith, Thank you for your email/letter. I am President of the Lawrence County Historical Society. I (and we the society) share your concern and outrage. We have worked with the parks department to try to get a better solution and one may be in the offing. First, the records will be preserved. The questions are when and where? Right now they are safely ensconced in the archives department at the ASU library in Jonesboro. The university has been very generous in letting us store them there till we could move back into the newly refurbished courthouse. But, the Parks folks don't seem to want us there any more even though we are the reason they exist at all. They spent 1.2 million on the refurbishment and not a dime on dehumidifiers or proper shelving for the vaults. They never intended for the records to be returned it seems. At the last moment they offered the little white wooden church building but the immediate and loud protests by the society and folks such as yourself have caused them to rethink their position. They have now offered to build a suitable, fire and storm proof vault next to the church to house the records. Catch is- we have to cede control and ownership of the records to the Arkansas History Commission which will allegedly pay an archivist to do the job Mrs. Flippo did so well for so many years. We are promised a binding legal agreement which will guarantee the records stay in Lawrence County. And they say they can't get funding till next year, if then, so nothing will be built in the next 2 or 3 years and the records will stay in Jonesboro till then. I recommend you send a copy of your letter to our Governor, to Mr. Richard Davies Director of the Arkansas Department of Parks and Tourism, One Capitol Mall, Little Rock, AR 72201, to Mr. Rex Friedman, Chief Planner, Planning & Development Section -- same address and to state legislators. Get your friends to do so as well. A few letters to the editor of the Arkansas Democrat/Gazette and the Arkansas Times wouldn't hurt either. The Parks people respond to public pressure and negative publicity. Email to: rex.friedman@arkansas.gov or richard.davies@arkansas.gov. They want the space we had for a visitor center, gift shop and offices for their staff. The little white church would be ideal for that purpose. They can't seem to understand that the records were the draw for the park. The LCHS will host a public meeting this Thursday, 7 p.m. at the Powhatan Community Center to inform the public of these latest developments and discuss options. Our primary goal is to preserve the documents properly and make them available for public use as soon as possible. I have discussed a plan with the ASU archivist to make the records more open to the public. He will likely be at the meeting. Parks and History Commission will be invited to attend as well. Many of the records are already on microfilm and available for review at the Telephone Exchange Building at the park. You will have to make an appointment with the park staff for a time though. PLEASE, everyone get involved or the records will eventually be destroyed for lack of climate and 2 and 4 legged vagrant control!! Contact the Governor at: http://www.state.ar.us/governor/staff/index.html#General PLEASE!!! ALL get involved in this or our records will eventually be lost! Lanita

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/VV.2ADE/466 Message Board Post: For many years, the oldest of the old Arkansas and Missouri records were housed safely and securely in the Powhatten Museum in Lawrence County. These records include documents that Lewis and Clark have signed. Now the State has come in and wants to stick them in an old church or other areas. They want to do this on the advisement of an out of state consultant firm. We urge all interested parties, to get involved and express their protest on this matter. We just received this word on another list: I have the latest update on the Powhatan heartache. Talked to Tom Moore (he and his wife have been former Presidents of the Lawrence County Historical Society and are Evelyn Flippo's daughter and son-in-law.) He told us to first go to the Walnut Ridge Times Dispatch website for information from Mr. Lloyd Clark, current President of the Lawrence County Historical Society with directions as to how to help. His email is lwclark@cswnet.com. There is going to be a public support meeting on Thursday evening. They are hoping to receive letters of support for the historical information to be put back at Powhatan Museum. All of the historical papers, etc. are at Arkansas State University in the proper environment that is needed to keep them in good shape. (thank goodness) This is a real mess. There are several proposals from the state as to the future of those genealogy records. Some were worried about Evelyn Flippo who has dedicated alot of her life to preserving those records at Powhatan. They tell me she is well and able to be involved with this problem. Let's get busy and get letters out. I think they will take emails. Carolyn Boone PLEASE, we need everyone's help on this matter. Please email and let your feelings be known about this matter. The records HAD been housed in the secure and safe environment until they remodeled the Museum. Locals THOUGHT that the records would be moved back. Now the State Parks and Rec. Dept. wants to stick them in an old church. We need your support NOW. This is my letter... feel free to use whatever you need if it helps you to voice your protest: Many of us genealogists and family historians are outraged at the possibility that the records will no longer be preserved at the Powhatan Museum. What has been accomplished by Evelyn Flippo and the county should not be taken lightly. To even think that they will not be kept where they are most appreciated, will not only be a step back in the preservation, but will be a travesty at what has already been accomplished. Evelyn Flippo has given alot of her life preserving those records at Powhatan and to think that the state will now come in and stick them in an old church or any other place other than the Powhatan Museum where they will NOT be as protected and appreciated and as easily assessable is just unacceptable. To spend the taxpayers' money to turn another building into a place to house these records when you already have one available and known Nationwide by genealogists as being one of the best county museums in the nation, is a total disregard to the taxpayers money and previous expert local efforts!! It is simply OUTRAGEOUS!!! Please know that many of us who travel many many miles, come to the county for the sole purpose of visiting the Powhaten museum with the valuable records. It is known nationally as being one of the best county museums to house some of the oldest records available to the public in the county setting. We spend tourist and research dollars in Lawrence County. We come with the knowledge that the records are being safely secured and preserved at the Powhatan Museum and leave with the secure knowledge that they will be safe and taken care of properly.... we know that we can come again and not have to wonder about their condition when we return. We come again because of the care and condition remains good. Anytime a governmental department comes in with an out of state consultant firm and tries to tell the locals how they should do something only accomplishes one thing.. it makes the situation WORSE! We URGE those making the decisions to keep these records in the Powhatan Museum, their rightful place! To do otherwise is a slap in the face of those experts who were taking care of these records LONG before any state department got involved! Sincerely, Lanita Sconce Smith Missouri Lanita Sconce Smith

Hi Karyln! Not all courthouse fires had to do with the WBTS. Granted that many were burned during that period, many fires had nothing to do with that period of violence. Rather they were mostly a consequence of wood stoves or open fireplaces used for heating wooden buildings. Modern construction of fireproof materials and improved methods of heating greatly reduced the dangers of fire, but in the meantime records were lost just about every time one of those older buildings burned. -- Robert W.

Seems like someone told me it burned in 1914.....I've found some later marriages there, 1915 -----Nothing is on microfilm - just look!
