Currents of History $20
a Jack Hill documentary.
Developed and produced in conjunction with the Pocahontas Sesquicentennial of 2006, this half-hour documentary explores the territorial history of what would become Randolph County, Arkansas. Today, Old Davidsonville State Park is the site of the earliest planned town in the state of Arkansas. Though the town was abandoned by 1829, Davidsonville was the home to the first post office in Arkansas in 1817. Additionally, it was the site of the first court house and land office in the state. The oldest structures of their kind in Arkansas are two old houses located within a mile of each other in Northwest Randolph County. Recent studies have indicated they date to 1828 and 1833. The Fourche River Valley winds its way down the middle of the county in a community known as Columbia. The Southwest Trail and Trail of Tears crossed this valley. The oldest Baptist Church in Arkansas is here, established in 1818. Featured are Dr. Michael Dougan of Arkansas State University and the Honorable Morris Arnold, premier Territorial Arkansas historian. Local interviews include Old Davidsonville Park Superintendent Justin Dorsey and Park Interpreter Travis Eggleston, Looney-French House owner Christina French. Rice-Upshaw descendant Cindy Robinett, former State Representative and local historian Harmon Seawel, Columbia Township descendant Bennie Jarrett and his granddaughter Payton, as well as Birdell Community residents and long-time Randolph County descendants David Looney, Luttie Mae Johnson, and Elsie Young. Mr. Jack Hill, an Arkansas native and former reporter and news anchor at KAIT 8 in Jonesboro, has become widely known for his documentary spotlights of Arkansas history and culture.

History of Randolph County $18
by Lawrence Dalton.

PDF*-on-CD version of Lawrence Dalton’s History of Randolph County, which was first published in 1946. An enlarged edition was printed by the family in 1981. Only 2,000 books were printed, making copies of the book difficult to find. In honor of Herman Udel Dalton, the only child of Lawrence and Irene, this digital rendition is being made available.

Herman and Lawrence shared a love of history and story telling. As a young man he worked in a local sale barn as a cattle puncher, tested cream at cream stations, and clerked in grocery stores. Herman and his father owned and operated D. I. Dalton and Son Store from 1945 to 1969. They handled groceries and dry good products. The store was located on Marr Street near the courthouse in Pocahontas, Arkansas.

On October 1, 1950, Herman married Eula Mae King of Elm Store, Arkansas. Herman and Eula Mae have lived their entire married lives in Pocahontas. After closing the Dalton’s store, Herman worked as a wholesale hardware salesman and covered routes in northeast Arkansas.

Herman and Eula Mae raised three children, Sandra Brewer of Couch, Missouri; David Dalton of Crossville, Tennessee, and John Dalton of Pocahontas. Herman served as an elder briefly for the WestRidge Church of Christ (formerly Highway 62 West) and served 20 years f or the Pyburn Street Church of Christ congregation. Herman always loved politics and served several years as the Republican county chairman for Randolph County.

Herman was known as an honest and gentle man. These characteristics were also noted in his long illness with Parkinson’s Disease. He suffered for many years with very little complaint under the kind care of his wife.

The family of Herman Dalton is proud to present this digital copy for the benefit of the citizens of Randolph County and those who love the stories of history as much as Lawrence and Herman. This is the only family-approved edition that has been made available by Herman’s family.

Written and Illustrated by Bryce A. Chandler; 382 pages

March to the beat of a Southern drummer boy and follow the Confederacy’s struggle to maintain home, family, and a way of life. Roger Mills is a young orphan left to the cruelty of the world. It is not long before he learns that troubles bring him much closer to his Heavenly Father. Joining the Sixth Alabama Infantry, Roger beats the Southern cadence on the red battle grounds of Virginia, and his sister fights the war of the wounded in the regimental field hospital.

The drummer boy gains the favor of Stonewall Jackson and soon becomes the youngest member on the General’s staff. During the winter, Roger finds quarters at Moss Neck and learns the suffering of those on the home-front. This is a story of faith and freedom, love and loyalty. It is the story of an orphan and his beaten drum!

Bryce A. Chandler is a drummer boy re-enactor and has won the Arkansas Sons of the Confederate Veterans essay contest three out of four years since 2004. He is the author of A Courier for Stonewall, is a lifetime homeschooler, and resides in Northeast Arkansas.

Arkansas Historical Dance Series $12
(Book and Video Set)
by Dr. David R. Peterson and Dr. Charlie Sandage

	Video	The Arkansas Historical Dance Series is a unique collection of 8 short documentaries (5-11 minutes each) on traditional dance, music, and culture stretching from territorial times to the present; each segment is supported by a text and rare, historical photographs. The text (68 pages) includes a program summary, an historical perspective of the period and activity, a glossary of special dance and music terms, as well as dance descriptions, and suggestions for follow-up activities. Student work sheet packets are available for classroom use. This project started in 1987 when the Arkansas Country Dance Society (ACDS) received a grant from the Arkansas Endowment for the Humanities to produce two audio tapes of string-band dance music together with a text that could be used to support the preservation and teaching of traditional dance in the schools and communities of Arkansas. The tapes were soon completed and are available from ACDS.

Over the years the text grew into a full length book which is the basis for the enclosed text and the 8 documentaries which were produced in cooperation with the Arkansas Educational Television Network (AETN). The videos were written and directed by Dr. David R. Peterson and Dr. Charlie Sandage. Dr. Peterson wrote the text, the student work sheets, and collected the historical pictures. Dr. Peterson is a mathematician by academic training but a dance caller, musician, musical instrument builder, stone mason, log house builder, etc. by avocation. He helped found the ACDS in 1978 and has been president since. He is well known for his dance leadership and calling. Dr. Peterson has a joint appointment as Professor of Mathematics and Director of the Ozark Heritage Institute at the University of Central Arkansas in Conway. Dr. Sandage is and has been many interesting things: college teacher, academic administrator, performer/songwriter, music director at the Ozark Folk Center, music show producer, and television producer. He currently produces educational programming for the AETN.
