I have to agree with Mary, the ladies at Johnson County Courthouse are a super bunch! Each time I go there is like Christmas. Always new goodies to bring home. I will also say that the ladies at Johnson County Public Library are a great bunch. If any of you haven't been to the Johnson County Historical Society website lately, try to do so. I have it all decked out for Christmas. http://www.rootsweb.com/~kyjchs/johnson.html Another item I wanted to mention, if you are a member of the Historical Society, now is the time to start sending in your dues to ensure you do not miss your first copy of the Highland Echo. And on that same note, the next meeting of the Johnson County Historical Society is this Saturday, December 4, 1999, at 10:00 a.m. It will be held at the library. I am going to try my best to be there. Have a great day of research! Ann
