The true stories of the families who called the community of Elkhorn Tavern their homes just prior to the outbreak of the American Civil War and a must for any Arkansas family history researcher or Civil War history buff! With over three years and 1,000's of hours of research, Elkhorn Tavern contains a complete transcription of the 1860 census of Mount Vernon & Sugar Creek townships near the battlefield at Elkhorn Tavern, a significant conflict and early turning point in the Civil War west of the Mississippi River. Each of the 172 households have been carefully researched with name transcriptions including accepted surname spellings. This work, however, is more than a census transcription, as it is also a storybook of the families who lived and received their mail at Pea Ridge, Arkansas that summer before the Civil War began. Families hailed from the states of North Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, South Carolina, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois and Mississippi to name a few. The Civil War research alone provides a story in itself for each household. When that war came to this obscure Arkansas stage stop in March of 1862, many of the men had already enlisted in some branch of military service. To that end, Elkhorn Tavern, 1860 includes service records of eligible age males who served in the Civil War including additional information and notes from family histories, pension applications and other recollections of period participants. The contents of this book are the product of careful records examination, adhering to proof standard genealogical methodologies. Gleaned from all available historical records and public and private documents, it is a rich look at the lives of those who were about to experience war at their back door. Research aides included but were not limited to available Arkansas and other state and federal Civil War era microfilm records, subsequent and previous Federal Census Images (1840-1920), marriage records, land records, published indexes, diaries, newspaper articles, pension applications, obituaries, reunion photographs, maps and family histories. As a Bonus, included in the Appendix, is a complete and carefully listed verbatim name transcription of the 1859 Benton County, AR Tax List, some 1,470 individuals.
