    1. [GAHARRIS] Re: Chamber of Commerce of Harris County.
    2. This is a perfect email as to why, Harris County should publish a History Book of Harris that could be sold to families in other States who are looking for their ancestors. I live in Muscogee County and I know I would be the one of the first ones to sign up to buy one and Ann mostly be the second and others. It appears Harris County depends only on the History of Louise C. Barfield's book. If the Barfield family won't share and new Books be publish then maybe Harris County should be looking for new authors who are willing to share and join in with other genealogy groups. Anne's email below. Sandra, Thank you. It seems there was a large group of Milners in Harris Co. I was just thinking the road might have been named for them or was where they lived. I have been reading your post about the books and I agree. It would be wonderful if the Harris County Library would publish a history. I know I would purchase one. There are so many places I would love to visit for research, but just don't have the time. I have managed to get to Jasper and Oglethorpe Counties in GA and Muscogee, of course, but even then I did not really have time to look for all I wanted. I have never visited Harris Co, for research. I was there many years ago, but that was before I had gotten involve in genealogy. I have family still living in Columbus and Phenix City, but none are interested in genealogy and are not willing to look up things for me. Isn't that a shame? Oh well, maybe one day soon, I will be able to make the trip again and have a few days at least to dig up some bones. Thanks again, AnneAnne, I will have to recheck, I thought Milner Road was the road to a small town name Milner. Milner crossed at Alabama. I'll check that again and let you know. I read somewhere where Milner Road was a stagecoach road from Milner I think it's some where in the Deed information I have from Harris County......Sandra
