Originally published by Goodspeed Publishing in 1889, this reprint contains memoirs and biographies of Scott County, Arkansas pioneers. Scott County, located on the western border of Arkansas was created November 5, 1833 and was named for Jude Andrew Scott. This history covers the time from creation up to about the mid-1880s when the publication was created. Because the information was compiled by the referenced family, it should be very accurate and detailed. A short history of the county is included, followed by the biographies.
Example:
SAUNDERS S. SLOVER, although now a prominent citizen of Scott County, Tenn., was born in Madison County, Ark., November 17, 1835, to Samuel and Emeline (Chote) Slover, the former a Tennessean and the latter a native of South Carolina, their births occurring March 5, 1811, and Steptember 28, 1816, respectively. etc...etc...
