Many folks are amazed at the history and folklore of the Ozarks.
Much of the history is unpublished and is passed down from generation to generation. The native people of the Ozarks were a rough and rugged bunch of souls who contributed a great deal to the growth of the country. The Wolf House at Norfork is the oldest structure of its kind west of the Mississippi. It was also the first courthouse in the Arkansas Territory. Many battles of the Civil War were fought up and down the White River as both the Union and the Confederate States tried to gain control of the river from Missouri to Mississippi.
