Does anyone know if either Down 110 Years or The History of Decatur County is still available to buy?

It is good. I also was fortunate enough to get the 2 volume set The History of Decatur County. I believe the Decatur County Historical Society had this reprinted as one Volume in 1981. It's a marvelous book as well. Stacey is undertaking a big job and all of us should thank her.
