History & History Related Items Camden history: We have quite a few historical homes and buildings here in Camden. Quite a few of them are listed on the Historical Building Listing. On our town square, where the courthouse stands (build in early 1900’s) there is a statue to commemorate the Confederate Ladies who stayed home while our men fought during the Civil War. We also have a Confederate Cemetary, that is kept up to date, and has quite a few interesting headstones as well as quite a bit of the "unknown soldiers of the C.S.A.". A major battle (Poison Springs) of the southern battles of the Civil War was fought only a few miles from Camden. Our town just seems to be a town stood still and full of memories of a long- ago time. East Camden (across the Ouachita River) has one of the few remaining missile launching manufacturing businesses in the south. We also have one of the oldest remaining International Paper Mills here (a backbone of our businesses) which just celebrated it’s 75th anniversary.
