Biographical/Historical Note

Lawrence County was created from New Madrid County, Missouri Territory, in 1815, and encompassed nearly half of present day Arkansas, plus a portion of present day southern Missouri. Land records such as deeds, abstracts, and other sales of land were recorded at the county courthouse. This group of records is part of a larger collection once housed at the Powhatan Courthouse donated by the Lawrence County Historical Society in 2010.
