Arkansas Troops in the Second Seminole War According to Roy
Robinson, Box 31, Westfork, Arkansas (letter dated December 31,
1962) a company of volunteers was raised at Clarksville,
Arkansas about 1837 to serve in the Second Seminole War. This
company served in the Fort Gibson area. Among the members of the
company were brother, William Robinson; and their father,
William Robinson, Sr. The latter was a veteran of the Creek War
and the Battle of Horseshoe Bend. The younger William Robinson
was either killed in the service or disappeared soon after
discharge. Murray Campbell was another soldier from the
Fayetteville area who served in the Clarksville company. Source:
