I am in the process of getting rid of things, so that on my next long trip, I shall not leave behind a mess for others to deal with. Not expecting to travel soon, but want to be prepared. Now, there are a number of Alabama books I have found so far, and the cleaning out has just begun: History of fiddle playing in Alabama, for example. Also, sins of Madison County (which I thought must relate to the Bridges of Madison County, until I saw I also have a Gazateer of madison County. Also, I have a Gazaetteer of Perry County, and three copies of Bibb County. I know a couple of my cousions that will want the ones from Bibb (and Gazateer is not the correct term). I also have two volumnes of Historical Alabama (showing all the post office boxes, I think...I am not certain)_ as I said, it will be awhile, and I will try to compile a list so you can know more about them. Thought I might check and see if there is any interest here or not. Don Logan austin Texas. after this, I will go to Lamesa, and begin cleaning out there, and probablyh return to Austin. don
HEllo, We have just opened a new public library in the small town I am from. That town is Munford, Alabama. I donated half of my father's books to get it started. That came to about 5000 books. I then donated my books, and poof we have a new library. We are extremely proud of it. I am the librarian, and I donate my time for five years. Hopefully by that time, it will be on its feet. If you have any extra books, we would gladly take them. Munford is in northern Talladega County. We are at the foot of Mt. Cheaha. My grandmother was a Pearson from Bibb County. That is my connection to this web-site.

Don, I would think the library in Centreville would appreciate any books, not only on Bibb but statewide. Our Autauga Genealogical Society is beginning to purchase books on Alabama and surrounding counties *and* states so don't rule out the Bibb library for a book. Give them first choice. If you travel, come to Alabama :) Caroline ----- Original Message ----- From: "Susan York" <yorksusan@att.net> To: <albibb@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, April 08, 2008 6:15 PM Subject: [ALBIBB] genealogy books >I am in the process of getting rid of things, so that on my next long trip, > I shall not leave behind a mess for others to deal with.
