If anyone is in the Scottsville area October 17 & 18, you may want to drop by the Scottsville Cemetery for the Allen Co Historical Society's annual cemetery tour. Each year over 30 "ghostly" appriations (disguised as society members) throughout the cemetery tell the stories of different ancestors buried in the location. Cost and other details will be forthcoming. Sharon Tabor **************Looking for simple solutions to your real-life financial challenges?
