Lea, 1852) I. GENERAL INFORMATION A. Methodology used to complete review Public notice of the initiation of this 5-year review was given in the Federal Register on September 8, 2006 (71 FR 53127-53129) and a 60 day comment period was opened. During the comment period, we did not receive any additional information about Arkansas fatmucket (Lampsilis powelllii) other than specific information from biologists familiar with the species. This review was completed by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Arkansas Field Office. Arkansas fatmucket only occurs in the state of Arkansas. Literature and documents on file at the Arkansas Field Office were used for this review. All recommendations resulting from this review are a result of thoroughly reviewing the best available information on the Arkansas fatmucket and the reviewer’s expertise as one of the leading authorities on this species. Comments and suggestions regarding the review were received from Arkansas Field Office supervisors and peer reviews from outside the Service (see Appendix A). No part of the review was contracted to an outside party. B.

French Place Names in Clark County, Arkansas
Ouachita Baptist University Scholarly Commons @ Ouachita Articles Faculty Publications Winter 2019 French Place Names in Clark County, Arkansas Joe Jeffers Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarlycommons.obu.edu/articles Part of the Geography Commons, and the United States History Commons Clark County Historical Journal -- 2019 French Place Names in Clark County, Arkansas Joe Jeffers French place names are common in Arkansas, especially in south Arkansas, where after the French explorers left, French trappers and settlers from Canada moved in. Some of those names remain unchanged from the original French. General usage and English speaking settlers modified others. Clark County was one of five counties established in the Arkansas Territory. Its boundaries changed five times before reaching its present form in 1877. This article explores French place names in today’s Clark County and in the original Clark County formed in 1818. ~~~~~~~~~~ French place names abound in Arkansas, particularly in south Arkansas. The indigenous people were Caddo, Osage, and Quapaw, among others. The first European explorers came in 1541, when Hernando de Soto led a Spanish expedition into Arkansas looking for gold. They found many tribal villages and large fields of maize, but no gold.1 They killed many tribesmen and transmitted disease, but left no settlements. DeSoto died a year later, and the Spanish were gone within another year. More than 100 years later, French explorers entered Arkansas -- Jacques Marquette and Louis Jolliet in 1673, and Robert La Salle and Henri de Tonti in 1681. They found only widely scattered tribal villages of mostly hunter-gatherer groups, not the more populous settlements encountered by the Spanish. -
