Is anyone living near or in Batesville. I am doing a research project near Poke Bayou and just need a few questions answered.
Thanks

Treasuredawg said:I grew up in Stone County, AR about 10 miles West of Batesville. As you know by now, Batesville is one of the oldest towns in Arkansas. In fact, DeSoto visited the area in 1541 or 2 on his tour through Arkansas. I am very familiar with the town but I don't know exactly where Luttigs trading post was located. I don't know if any record was kept of the location. Can you let us know what exactly your looking for....is it just the location or something else?
