We've been discussing the Peter Wellington Alexander Papers on the MO Division SCV Message Board at http://www.missouridivision-scv.org/messageboard14/ and Arkansas in the CW Message Board at http://history-sites.com/cgi-bin/boards/arcwmb/. These papers are of particular interest to the Trans-Mississippi and fill-in many gaps in the sparse Confederate documentation of operations in Arkansas, Missouri, Indian Territory, etc.

I was wondering for those of you who have contact with Wallace State College, if they have a copy of these documents on microfilm? If not, they might be interested in knowing about them.

If you'd like to read more about the content of this collection go to:
