Oleta, Isn't he (Dr. Littlefield) just wonderful! I should thank you as well for your work at the center. I am a (middle-aged) college student. I want to major in history; perhaps Native American history. Recently, I did a presentation on the Trail of Tears Through Arkansas for my Arkansas History class. I traced one contingent (Bell-Deas) from their departure in TN all through Arkansas to I.T. With the materials Dr. Littlefield gave me access to, I was able to give an informative presentation. I was even told by my professor that I should give the presentation to the Arkansas History Commission. What a compliment. I was familiar with the center because I had heard Dr. Littlefield speak about Native American genealogical research at a local library. However, I was amazed at the wealth of information that was available at the center. I plan to transfer to U.A.L.R. in the spring and have already offered my services to Dr. Littlefield as a volunteer. I know that whatever help I will be able to give the center as a volunteer, I will personally benefit ten-fold, simply because of what I will learn while working there. Have a great day. Jan
