FYI, reference to an exchange of e-mails relative to the possible reprinting of the above book: Preston ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~` Sent: Sunday, December 25, 2005 9:04 PM Subject: "Genealogy of Old & New Cherokee Indian Families" by George Morrison Bell, Sr. I hope everyone had a nice Christmas. I recently received an email from Jay Hannah who led me to Watie Bell and his email address. Watie is going to reprint his dad's book. He needs more people to say they are interested in the book before he reprints it. I do not have a copy and would love one. The book according to JC Thompson is the basis for most of the ones who are buried at Mt. Tabor Cemetery. Please contact Watie Bell if you are interested in a book. See his email below - Merry Christmas! Paul Ridenour ============================= Paul Ridenour............Thank you for your letter. I have gone to several publishers about reprint of my Dad's book and as yet have not made a decision. The price will be $50.00 plus S&H. I hear that we will have another postal price increase in January, so I think the S&H will be in the neighborhood of $10 thereabouts. I would like to have more response from people before I go to print. I will run another ad next month in the Cherokee Phoenix newspaper in Tahlequah, OK. We should have a better handle on when the time of completion will happen. Thank you for the info about the Mt. Tabor cemetery. I believe Dad visited that area at one time.
