This series includes materials relating to four areas of history: colonial Arkansas, Arkansas County since 1805, rice farming, and genealogy.   The materials on Arkansas County since 1805 are divided into two subseries:  miscellaneous materials accumulated by Dorothy Core, and documents relating to Arkansas County government.

Subseries 1.   Colonial Arkansas and Related Materials.

This subseries includes materials accumulated by Dorothy Core in the course of her genealogical and Arkansas County research.  These materials include French and Spanish language documents   photocopied from other archives.  She was particularly interested in Arkansas Post, which in its later manifestations was located in southern Arkansas County.  The subseries includes correspondence between Core and Morris Arnold, her collaborator on  Arkansas Colonials.  Also included are maps of Arkansas Post used by Dorothy Core and Dr. Arnold.  The subseries also contains correspondence between Mrs. Core and descendants of Arkansas colonials, as well as genealogists, concerning prominent colonial figures.   It also contains a few items on the colonial period not pertaining to Arkansas.

The materials in this subseries include information on both relations of the Core family and persons not related to the Cores.  This subseries contains correspondence between Dorothy Core and distant relatives on genealogical and personal matters.  This subseries also includes genealogically-focused family newsletters, such as the bulletin of the Cresap Society.  Finally, this subseries contains a number of notebooks and index cards which Dorothy Core used to jot down information; none of the notebooks feature a uniform or consistent theme.
