    2. Sherri Hall
    3. Forwarded FYI - The Library of Congress' Serial & Government Publications Division is pleased to announce the release of a new addition to the National Digital Library - the online collection The Stars and Stripes: The American Soldiers' Newspaper of World War I, 1918-1919, available on the American Memory website at: http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/sgphtml/sashtml/. At the direction of General John J. Pershing, The Stars and Stripes newspaper was published in France by the United States Army from February 8, 1918 to June 13, 1919. By early 1918, American forces were dispersed throughout the western front, often mixed at the unit level with British, French and Italian forces. The primary mission of The Stars and Stripes was to provide these scattered troops with a sense of unity and an understanding of their part in the overall war effort. The eight-page weekly featured news from home, poetry, cartoons and sports news, with a staff that included journalists Alexander Woollcott, Harold Wallace Ross and Grantland Rice. On borrowed printing presses, using a delivery network that combined trains, automobiles (including three Cadillacs) and one motorcycle, the staff produced a newspaper with a circulation that peaked at 526,000 copies. This new online collection presents the complete run - 71 weeks - of the World War I edition. The collection also includes special presentations that discuss the newspaper's content: its illustrations and advertising, its publication of soldiers' poetry, its coverage of women. Brief biographies of editorial staff members and their later careers hint at the level of journalistic talent within The Stars and Stripes. A timeline and map place the newspaper within the greater historical and geographical context of the war. The collection was processed with optical character recognition (OCR) software to allow users to search the full text of the newspaper for a word or phrase. This feature expands the collection's usefulness to historians and genealogists researching names and details that do not appear in the headlines. The Stars and Stripes collection served as a pilot project in the development of search and display capabilities to be utilized on future releases of historic newspapers.

    1. Re: [KY] Bluegrass
    2. Doug & Marcy McCammish
    3. Loaded topic. The answer depends on whom you ask. I've seen places of business say they are in the Bluegrass although they are two hours from Lexington. See web site http://dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/Kentucky/Regions/Bluegrass/Counties/ This lists Anderson, Bourbon, Boyle, Clark, Fayette, Franklin, Garrard, Harrison, Jessamine, Lincoln, Madison, Mercer, Nicholas, Scott, and Woodford Counties. The name came from the grass. The name of the grass comes from its purple/blue cast when it is in "flower." This site suggests an "Inner Bluegrass" and "Outer Bluegrass," including Louisville. http://www.uky.edu/KentuckyAtlas/phys-bluegrass.html Kentucky is generally divided into the Pennyrile Region (western), Bluegrass (central) and Appalachian (eastern) regions.

    1. [KY] looking for George Washington ADAMS
    2. Bill Cross
    3. I am seeking information on the birth of George Washington ADAMS, 21 Feb 1809-21 Oct. 1855. He married Mary Davis CHILDERS 23 Mar 1830, and had five children: Susan, Amelia, John Thomas, Nancy and James Clayton. He moved (or moved with his wife) to Gasconade, MO. There is a note in the 1880 census for Gasconade showing a Mary Adams widow in the household of another child not part of this list; don't know if it's the same woman (her birth date listed is 1815).
