Welcome to Baxter County ARGenWeb Project
Your Baxter County ARGenWeb
Coordinator is Ruth Ann Davis.
I have been the county coordinator for Fulton County,
Arkansas for many years.
I just took over the Baxter County site in May 2015.
I am busily working to get the pages updated and the links
changed and tested.
If you find errors, broken links or have items to include, please let me
know.
Just email me at the address below but please include Baxter
County in the Subject area
so I know to post or correct this web site.
I love preserving and sharing photos of the pioneers and
others who came after them.
I would like to include a photo section on this website.
Just let me know if you are interested in this addition and
send me your photo files in jpeg if possible
with the names, ages, and any other information you would like to share on your
ancestors.
Unfortunately, I am not able to do any research for the
Baxter County area because I live in Alabama and not Arkansas.
Happy Hunting!!

You can also search for your family names
at findagrave.com I like to search with the surname and
check the box for maiden names also.
Many times photos and other information is
listed on the resource. |

A wonderful resource! (Download - about
300k).
All of the 244,456 Arkansas General
Land Office records are also searchable, in case you don't know in which county
your ancestor lived.
The search engine can also be reached
at the Arkansas land web page.
Please
Read! Important information regarding
lookups and queries!
It has come to the attention of USGenWeb
volunteers that some people who post queries to our web sites are
being asked to pay for information. It
is NOT the policy of USGenWeb to charge for
information, other than actual postage and
photocopying costs. Please understand, if someone asks for money, it is NOT a Baxter County GenWeb/USGenWeb volunteer.
These people have volunteered to do lookups
for Baxter County researchers. Drop them an email and see what can be arranged!
Available from the Geographical Names
Information System of the U.S. Geological Survey.
Just choose "Arkansas" as the state and enter
"Baxter" as the county.

SEARCH THE BAXTER COUNTY ARGENWEB SITE
Below you may search this entire website. I would like to suggest that you only search LAST
or SURNAMES and not full names.
The reason for this is that many of the newspaper articles the
editor/writer abbreviated the first names many times and if you search with a
full name you will not have a productive search. An example is the first name George would
have been written Geo., so if you searched for George
Burkett, the search would miss Geo.
Burkett. Also try other ways to spell
the surname you are searching. Sometimes
names were written with different spellings.
