Arkansas Archeological Survey (http://www.uark.edu/campus-resources/archinfo/index.html) – eleven research stations throughout the state offer full-time archaeologists who can assist with protecting archeological sites. 

Arkansas History Commission (http://www.ark-ives.com/) – identifies, preserves, and makes accessible records (such as census records, military records, family histories, and various county, state and federal records) and other historical documents that can help you research your special sites.  Some records, maps, and other documents have been digitized and can be found at Documenting Arkansas (http://www.ark-ives.com/documenting/).
