Halito!

Earlier someone was looking for information about
Choctaws in Arkansas. I believe that you can find a
discussion of that in DeRosier's The Removal of the
Choctaw Indians (1970). It may be out of print, but
you might be able to find a used copy on Amazon.com.

Apparently, the Choctaw were originally given land in
Arkansas, but the white settlers complained.
Consequently, the U.S. govt. took that land back. Most
of the Choctaw moved into Indian Territory. However,
some may have stayed.

Good luck,

George Ann
