    3. I was asked to post this message. Good luck in your search! Kathy I am director of Southwest Arkansas Regional Archives in Washington, AR. We have thousands of sources for genealogists. We recently received a grant from the Arkansas Humanities Council and the National Endowment for the Humanities titled "A Searchable Database of all Schools since Arkansas Statehood in 1836 in Twelve SW Arkansas Counties." Those counties are Columbia, Hempstead, Howard, Lafayette, Little River, Miller, Nevada, Ouachita, Pike, Polk, Sevier, and Union. Go to our website, www.southwestarchives.com and click School Project to see the names of schools from GNIS (National Geological Survey) in those counties. We already have many more schools to add to the list. If you have any information about a school that you could share with us, please write to me at friley@southwestarchives.com. Our grant is for $21,982 which we matched with $21,982 with donations from groups and individuals including the Arkansas History Commission, South Arkansas History Foundation,! Friends d DAR. We are still accepting donations. Thank you, Faith Riley
