• Marriage licenses issued in Washington County, May 21-27 (arkansasonline.com) — Recent Washington County marriage license filings include a young couple from Westville among many applicants from Northwest Arkansas and nearby states.

• Our Arklahoma Heritage: A modest church in Adair County is a testament to the endurance of community spirit (todayinfortsmith.com) — A historic Baptist mission church between Westville and Watts has quietly anchored Cherokee families since the Trail of Tears era, preserving faith and community ties for nearly two centuries. The story traces how this modest white-frame sanctuary, its cemetery, and surrounding countryside reflect Adair County’s Cherokee history, from removal and early political conflict through statehood and today’s small-town ranching and poultry economy.
