I would like to thank all who came and volunteered or participated at the
recent Arkansas Genealogy Roadshow at the Donald W. Reynolds Library in
Mountain Home, Arkansas, September 24th. Additionally, this huge event could
not be possible without the staff of the library. I would like to personally thank
Julie Stewart, who works at the library as our Volunteer Coordinator, for all her
work behind the scenes.
I am also grateful for the 11 local Historical Societies setting up tables
& 6 Genealogy Expert Tables sharing their love of genealogy & history.
The
lectures were wonderful and informative with Dr. Lisa Perry, from the NorthEast Arkansas Regional Archives
(NEARA), Dr.
Daniel Littlefield Jr. - Dr. Littlefield, author, lecturer, and director of
UALR’s Sequoyah National Research Center,
Mr. Michael Bentley with his extensive
& knowledge in photograghs of the Pre Civil War/ Civil War Antebellum / Late
1800's Eras, and Dr. Buford Suffridge sharing how the
utilization of DNA can work as an aide in Genealogy Research. Furthermore,
I would also like to thank the Arkansas Genealogical Society for co-sponsoring
this event.
I believe this will not be the last of our Local History & Genealogy Reunions
in the future as we learn and discover our Ozarks’
History.
I am Respectfully Yours,
Vincent
