This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/AW.2ADE/532.2 Message Board Post: Clara, My name is Gary Telford and I write a weekly Column in the Woodruff County Monitor newspaper called "Family Roots" which is about the history of the county and famlies who have lived here. I will be writing the history of the Roddy family who settled here before the Civil War and owned the Roddy plantation near Fitzhugh, AR. This history is a long one and will probably be written in two issues of the Woodruff County Monitor. If you are still interested in this family history you may contact me by e-mail. Best regards, Gary Telford Family Roots

Hi Gary T., My name is C. Robinson, I too am writing on RODDY and also ANTHONY surnames. I would like to know the owners of RODDY'S and ANTHONY's if possible. Is it possible to get a copy of your colmun when it becomes available. Do you keep records of obits that have appeared in your paper? Note: PS: I have a list of all RODDY marriages from the male index if any one needs this info.
