Description | The Des Arc Weekly Citizen was a newspaper published in Des Arc, Arkansas, during the mid-19th century. Established by John C. Morrill in September 1854, it was the first newspaper in Prairie County. Initially published weekly, it focused on a variety of topics including state politics, local news, agriculture, and developments in transportation infrastructure such as railroads and river levees. During the lead-up to the Civil War, the paper reflected differing views on secession, with some supporting leaving the Union and others advocating for staying. The publication was temporarily suspended during the Civil War but resumed in 1866 during the Reconstruction era under new proprietors and editors.
