The creation of the "Hickory Colored School" in Denton County led me to wonder, where was it located? Using maps, I discovered where the little community used to be.

Large scale exhibits, virtual tours and virtual exhibits are not just products that big, well-funded museums can offer. Small museums have the same capabilities using the technology and software they already have, such as Power Point, Windows Photos, and Movie Maker. Please note that there is 15 seconds of silence during the second demonstration. This is because the music in the Photos Applicat...

While the purpose of museums is to provide educational content, what are the actual take-aways visitors gain from your programs? You can pinpoint your educational objective using the verbs found in Bloom's Taxonomy. See how to do it in this short video!
Documenting the Research Journey in Museum Work

If your exhibits and programs never change, they become stale for both visitors and staff. To be dynamic, museum workers should use the social scientific methods of replication and reflexivity. Learn about these easy methods that can help your museum, using the tools you already have!
Thank you for this content - I was able to help excavate at Doaksville in both summers of 1995 & 1996. Great memories, and I learned a lot about archaeology:) I love Oklahoma history.
Thank you
There is large amounts of information you are leaving out.
This is too cool I grew up in seok I love this stuff “There hidden gold in them there hills”

I’m a descendent of St Denis, I’ve just started looking into my ancestry. Thanks for the information on him and the town.
Keep up the great (history) content, it matters! Thanks!

Great video, thank you!
Hi Robin! According to her husband's war pension form, my great great great grandmother, Clarinda Hewitt Grant died in Mulberry, TX in March of 1867 along with up to seven children while travelling in Texas, we believe, to see family. We suspect smallpox. I am trying to find where she might have been buried. Do you think you help me locate her and her childrens' burial place?
Yes, of course! My email is robin@redriverhistorian.com. Send me an email so I can talk with you directly.
Stand Wah tee (7:32) was Cherokee. All your other History was on point. Albert Pike was heavy in that mix (also interesting history).
My third g grandfather’s history is with Fort Washita. Glad it still stands somewhat.
These are black people you know that
Thank you
These are the ancestors of the black people today African Americans
Tishomingo,Okla.is also of Choctaw Indians too,you might want to check it out nxt time in you're travels 😀
I'm Choctaw Indian I'm classified as black aka African American in school history they teach us that we're black so we have a hard time in America till this day for saying we're indian
I thought Tishomingo is Chickasaw, that’s where the Chickasaw court house and headquarters was originally. They voted and moved it to Pontotoc county
Clint Williams Peanut Co. It went bankrupt when there was a peanut shortage. It was last owned by Alan and Pam Ortloff. Pam was originally a Williams
Stay away from this city. Look into the arrest of Travis Heinz. He got arrested and jailed for looking suspicious. Corrupt cops. Corrupt prosecutor.
Live Sanborn maps researching.
Madill had a tornado a year or two ago which destroyed a building across from super WM, and Pecos Hank captured it on video.
Those old maps, especially the Sanborn maps, are great at scratching a proverbial itch when you read that "This building used to be somewhere else here in town", and half an hour later you've found where the "somewhere else" was. cf. "The Episcopal Church of the Resurrection, Decatur, TX."
very informative! thank you!
So Informitive. I Love the maps.
I was at the Fort Towson site today, wish I had known this site was there to! It would have been fun to see.
I'll be doing a 2-week float trip down the Red the first half of October 2021, filming primarily wildlife and the natural history of the river. However, I'm hoping that I can get permission from the ranch owner to come onto the spread and look for the visible scars on the ground where all those wagon wheels and hooves wore the earth. I read, probably 20 or more years ago, that you could still see those traces (at least on the Texas side, I believe) and I'm hoping to get them on video if they still exist. I'll be contacting the Nocona Chamber of Commerce to see if they can help me get in touch with the landowner. I'll be hiking up from the river itself with camera gear, so it might be a bit of a challenge finding my way up. I floated past the site in 2007 but at the time didn't have GPS capabilities, so I didn't know when I was at the approximate site of the crossing. I filmed three different spots on the River hoping that one of the locations was at or near the crossing, but now I can't recreate exactly where those three filming locations where, even looking at Google Earth. This time, at the very least I'll get footage of what the river looks at or very near the actual crossing site, even though the river has probably altered its course some over the past 135+ years. Thanks for your presentation! You've got a lot of interesting history and info on your website.
Thanks for the great video! Greetings from Greenville!
You're cute.
Was fortunate enough to stroll through this cemetery while in Natchitoches visiting my daughter while she was attending Northwestern State. This is one of my favorite Louisianan towns. Thanks for the walk down memory lane.
My only complaint about this video is that it is not set to fit the screen. Everything looks distorted. Otherwise, very good historical information about my hometown. Thank you.
Very interesting and nicely done.
This was great! Keep 'em coming! I'd love to see one on Spanish Fort.
This was wonderful! Thanks for sharing cant wait until the next video!
Thanks enjoyed. The marker does look reasonably new. Could be the wooden markers worn out and church records might show the care taking group and their expenses. Thanks again.
