I will be travelling to Massac and Pope counties this summer/fall for a research trip and wondered if anyone can make some suggstions to better my research time. Any particularly good libraries/genealogical collections (do they have their catalog on-line so I can be prepared before I go), what about visiting the courthouse (location, hours). I have done the census work and gone through every Massac county book at the genealogical libraries here, but would also like to do probate, deed, more cemetery work, etc. My PRYOR, RISINGER, and ROBERTS families were in Massac and Pope from about 1820 to well after 1920. Any other suggestions on hotels, eating places, etc., would be greatly appreciated. Barb
