Wonderful museum and research area. Very helpful staff. I was intimidated by the thought of using the reference material. No worries. The staff were amazing and helpful.

Contact the State Archives under the Office of Secretary of State in Jefferson City. Your town is probably in St. Louis county or St. Charles county. Only the city of St. Louis isn't in a county.

The New Theatre was built in Ft. Smith, Arkansas around 1911. Do you have any documents on this theatre?
