I received the following message from Kathlyn J. Folmar, in answer to my question to Alpike-L AND Gapike-L (s) regarding the Pike Co "ALABAMA" Heritage Book. (I am clarifying Alabama as opposed to Georgia, because I am embarrassed to say when I ordered and paid for a copy then couldn't find my copy of my order form, I couldn't remember if it was from PIKE Co "Alabama" or "Georgia" - since I am working both counties. Any way.... Kathlyn says she has talked to a "Mrs. Bullard at the Troy Public Library" see her letter to me below. Evidently they are short 15 of the 100 books needed to go to print. Since some members of the lists have requested I let them know what I find out I am writing to the list with this information, because they want to purchase the book or want to know what's up. I wrote to Kathlyn to get the phone number of the library for us out-of-staters, and will send whenever I receive it. Anyhow, maybe some of you are local and can call Mrs. Bullard with any orders you want to place or ask her questions. A few of the people must have seen some of the pre-publication pages of the book and have said "it is well worth the money" and "great information". Thought I'd pass that along too.
