SCHS board members Cathy Ward and Renee Carr hosted a combined booth for Stone County Historical Society and the Mountain View FamilySearch Center at the 2026 North Arkansas Ancestor Fair at Marshall on Saturday. The two stayed busy answering questions, showing Heritage of Stone publications, and helping visitors research with the free FamilySearch app and website. Thank you to all who stopped by the booth. It was good to visit with our Searcy County neighbors! Searcy County Arkansas Chamber Of Commerce.
