It's my understanding that when Knoxville celebrated it's 125,150 or 175th birthday within the last 10-15 years, a special book was published commemorating the anniversary. I am trying to get a hold of a copy of the book for my mother. Information related to her grandfather, my g grandfather is in the book. I have talked to the Knoxville Library and they are unable to tell me how to get a hold of a copy of the book. It is supposedly out of print. Anyone know where I might be able to purchase a copy?

The book you are refering to is: KNOXVILLE THROUGH FIVE GENERATIONS published for the sesquicentennial in 1981. Four ladies put it together. Two of them are still living in Knoxville. You might get in touch with them. Rosalie (Mrs. Joe) Burgess and Sally (Mrs. Jim) Hutchcroft. Sorry, I don't know their street addresses or telephone numbers. I have a copy of the book and will gladly send you a copy of any pages that you might want.
