Van Buren, 1909 “I am going over to Alma today for a show & party.” The Crawford County Courthouse was built in a Georgian Revival style in 1878, using the bricks from an older courthouse first erected in 1841 and which burned in 1877. The marble monument on the lawn commemorat­ed the Confederat­e dead. Send questions or comments to Arkansas Postcard Past, P.O. Box 2221, Little Rock, Ark. 72203.
