Hi, I've just rejoined the Escambia mailing list, and would like to know more about submitting for the heritage book. I have been to the Escambia website, but would like to know more. I have gathered quite a bit of info on my Gathleny's and lines they married into (Grossjohann, Doyle, Diffin etc). <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Maura Petzolt mpetzolt2@webtv.net <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> SHAMROCK ROOTS homepage http://community.webtv.net/shamrockroots/SHAMROCKROOTS Helpful Hints for Successful Searching http://community.webtv.net/mpetzolt2/helpfulhints

Maura, The FINAL deadline for submitting stories and for presales for the FL Escambia County Heritage Book has been set for March 31, 2003. There will be no more extensions of time. Basically, you may submit 1,000 words and two photos for free for families in the county before 1890 and 500 words and one photo for free for families after 1890. Stories should be in narrative format, double space unless they are typed on a computer. At the bottom, put the (word count) Submitted by ( name and address) Written by (name and address) Sources (optional) Photo captions (10 or fewer words) The title and the name and address, etc., do not count in the number of words--just the body of the story. If you submit more than one story, you must have submitters from different households for each story. They may be your children or other relatives. You may be the writer for more than one--just not the submitter. Mail stories and/or checks to Escambia Co. Heritage Book Committee P. O. Box 30463 Pensacola, FL 32504-1463 If you will send me your address, I will send you a brochure. It has all the nitty-gritty details. Write if you have more questions. Cynthia Dean, Chairman Esc. Co.
