My friends - As we ease into this new year, I am resuming posts today with a return to our review of some early newspaper snippets from Calloway County in the 1906-1909 time frame. These snippets can cover a whole range of topics, from weddings, to death notices, obituaries, visitations, criminal activities, and a variety of other subject areas. I should also note the definition of "visitation". Someone inquired recently if this term referred to a ghostly or spirit visitation. In this context, it refers to a note in the newspaper that an individual is either visiting a relative in Calloway County, or a Calloway countian is visiting a relative outside the county. Subscribers to the JP and Calloway lists can obtain the text of a snippet shown in the list below by sending a request to me. On snippets, there is a request limit of three(3), due to the lengthy nature of some of the items. As always, your continuing assistance in not resending this entire message back to me with the request is appreciated. Tomorrow, we will move to Graves County. -B +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Calloway County - Early Newspaper Snippets - Continued Wells, Halen (relocation) Odie Crass (death memorial) Stubblefield, Nathan B.
