Who do you need in your search? I put them into a data base for a book I did on Fentress County. I may have some of the Clinton County names included, but I don't promise. I just know the Tennessee and Kentucky folks in Whitewright use to write back to the Fentress County newspaper and have articles in there about 2-3 times monthly. The migrant families and individual were mentioned and the reader got an idea of how much the individuals were homesick for their old homes. Also, the read gained an idea as to the daily life in Texas. Gary D.
