    1. Greenwood Leflore - new addition to American Local History Network site
    2. Everette Carr
    3. A series of articles have been added to the 'American Local History Network' site that I maintain dealing with Greenwood Leflore, the French / Indian for whom Greenwood and Leflore county are named. There is information on Greenwood's father, Louis Lefleur and the founding of Lefleur's Bluff where the Capitol of Mississippi now stands. Included is a listing of the family cemetery at 'Malmaison', the plantation home built by James C. Harris for Greenwood Leflore, the 'Last Will and Testament of Greenwood Leflore', the "Treaty of Doake's Stand", the events and discussions just days before the signing of the "Dancing Rabbit Creek Treaty", and the "Dancing Rabbit Creek Treaty". Read about Greenwood Leflore's rise to fame from a youngster that spoke little English to become a wealthy plantation owner and a Mississippi State legislature. Some genealogical information on the Lefleur/Leflore family is included. Click on this link: http://www.usgennet.org/usa/ms/county/attala/greenwoodleflore-1.htm to view these new pages. I hope you enjoy. Everette Carr County Coordinator - Attala County American Local History Network
