Book Description
Excerpt from Arkansas, Benton County and Siloam Springs: The Banner Country of the World for Apples The principal object I have had in the preparation of this booklet, has been to allay and destroy, as far as possible, the feeling of prejudice, which exists in the north, east and west, against Arkansas, as a state, by calling attention to her resources and natural advantages. In doing this, I have endeavored to make None but truthful statements, which are fully verified by the records and history. In quoting from the speech of Congressman Reid, I have done so, because I believe every word of it to be true. Arkansas has been woefully misunderstood, and such books as "A Slow Train Through Arkansas" and "Three Years in Arkansas," are miserable msirepresentations of the truth, and calculated to do the state harm, but honest, thinking people, will place them in the same category with "The Arkansas Traveler," and pass them by. Now read this booklet, as a truthful statement, and compare it with these books, as fiction of the Lowest order, and you will have a true, but very short, historical sketch of Arkansas, Benton County, and Siloam Springs.

Book Description
Siloam Springs was established in 1880 and is known for the beauty of the parks lining Sager Creek as it winds through the downtown. Eight of the springs feeding into the creek were once considered medicinal, which brought health seekers and summer visitors to the town for many years. Visitors and residents also enjoyed Chautauqua programs, concerts in the parks, and dramas in the opera house. White settlement along the creek dates back to the arrival of Simon Sager and family by 1839. The first town along the creek was Hico, which was established around 1845 by Caldeen and Nancy Ward Gunter. Today, Siloam Springs is home to John Brown University, the corporate headquarters for Allens, Inc. and Simmons Foods, Inc., and plants for several industries. This town of more than 15,000 is an Arkansas Main Street Community with three National Register Historic Districts.

Book Description
440 pages with 110 total maps Locating original landowners in maps has never been an easy task-until now. This volume in the Family Maps series contains newly created maps of original landowners (patent maps) in what is now Benton County, Arkansas, gleaned from the indexes of the U.S. Bureau of Land Management. But it offers much more than that. For each township in the county, there are two additional maps accompanying the patent map: a road map and a map showing waterways, railroads, and both modern and many historical city-centers and cemeteries. Included are indexes to help you locate what you are looking for, whether you know a person's name, a last name, a place-name, or a cemetery. The combination of maps and indexes are designed to aid researchers of American history or genealogy to explore frontier neighborhoods, examine family migrations, locate hard-to-find cemeteries and towns, as well as locate land based on legal descriptions found in old documents or deeds. The patent-maps are essentially plat maps but instead of depicting owners for a particular year, these maps show original landowners, no matter when the transfer from the federal government was completed. Dates of patents typically begin near the time of statehood and run into the early 1900s. What's Mapped in this book 8020 Parcels of Land (with and patent-dates labeled in the relevant map) 113 Cemeteries plus Roads, and existing Rivers, Creeks, Streams, Railroads, and Small-towns (including some historical), etc. Counts for parcels of land mapped, by decade in which corresponding land patents were issued: DecadeParcel-count 1830s3 1840s488 1850s1487 1860s1026 1870s579 1880s1364 1890s1390 1900s947 1910s648 1920s98 1930s5 1940s1 1950s9 What Cities/Towns are in Benton County Accident, Apple Spur, Avoca, Beacon Addition, Beaty, Beaver Shores, Bella Vista, Bella Vista, Bentonville, Bethel Heights, Blackjack Corner, Bland, Bloomfield, Bozarth (historical), Brightwater, Buttry (historical), Calis (historical), Cannon (historical), Castleville (historical), Cave (historical), Cave Springs, Caverna, Centerton, Chambers Spring (historical), Checks Corner (historical), Cherokee City, Clantonville, Clear Point, Clementine (historical), Colville (historical), Cottage Hill (historical), Creech, Cross Hollow, Cross Roads (historical), Crown (historical), Crump (historical), Dawn Hill, Decatur, Dorsey (historical), Dug Hill, Eagle Corner, Eldorado Springs (historical), Electric Springs (historical), Elkhorn Tavern, Fairmount, Falling Springs, Felker (historical), Flint (historical), Freeman (historical), Frisco, Frisco Springs (historical), Gallatin, Gallatin (historical), Garfield, Gateway, Gentry, Glade, Gravette, Green Acres, Hart (historical), Healing Springs, Hickory Creek, Hico, Highfill, Hill Top, Hiwasse, Hoover (historical), Hurd (historical), Ionia, Jaybird (historical), Key (historical), Lake Frances, Lakeland Hills, Larue, Lee (historical), Leetown, Liberty (historical), Line Store (historical), Little Flock, Logan, Lone Elm (historical), Lost Bridge Village, Lowell, Martin, Mason Valley, Maysville, Miller, Miller Springs (historical), Monte Ne, Monte Ne Shores, Nebo, Norwood, Oak Grove, Osage Mills, Osborn (historical), Pactolus (historical), Parn (historical), Pea Ridge, Pedro, Pine Top, Pippin (historical), Pleasant Hill, Pleasant Ridge, Pleasure Heights, Pond (historical), Prairie Creek, Puckett (historical), Race (historical), Rago, Rambo Riviera, Rivercliff Estates, Robinson, Rocky Comfort, Rocky Comfort (historical), Rogers, Rome City (historical), Round Top (historical), Seba, Sedalia (historical), Silent Grove, Siloam Springs, Silver Springs (historical), Spring Creek, Springtown, Sulphur Springs, Summit (historical), Tanglewood, Trammell (historical), Trident, Twin Springs (subdivision), Vaughn, Vista Shores, Vogel (historical), Wager (historical), Walnut Hill, Wann (historical), War Eagle, West Point, Woods (historical)
