News Release Fentress County Veterans Book to be Published The Fentress County Historical Society has announced that information for the Fentress County Veterans Book previously planned is still being accepted, and the book will be published as soon as work can be completed on the manuscripts and a publisher found. "A work of this magnitude requires a great deal of work by a lot of people," explained Willie Beaty, President of the Historical Society. "We are very anxious to make this volume available to our families and friends, but also want to assure that it is as complete as possible and that the work is top quality," Beaty continued. A Veterans Book Committee was appointed in June to guide the information gathering process and keep production as close on schedule as possible. Those serving on this committee are: Myra Smith, Chair; Jan York; Frances Hurd; Frank Bertram; Lorene Cargile; Linda Norman; Leslie Pullins; Stella Winningham; and Willie Beaty, ex officio. An information Fact Sheet on each Veteran must be completed with as much of the requested information as possible in order to be considered for the book. Information sheets are available at the Fentress County Library, or from any member of the committee. Also, facsimiles can be seen on the internet at the Society's web site at www.fentresscountyhistoricalsociety.org or on the Fentress County TNGENWEB page at http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~tnfentre/fent.htm . Those who have previously submitted information need not re-submit another form. Who is a Fentress County Veteran? The guidelines that the committee will use to determine which veterans should be included in the Fentress County Veterans Book are: 1.. Definition of Veteran: A veteran is any person who has served in any of the branches of the U.S. military service, including the Tennessee National Guard for a period of 3 months or more at any time, during any war or in peacetime, including those presently on active duty. 2.. Definition of Fentress County Veteran: The veteran must have been either born in Fentress County, lived in Fentress County at any 6 month period during his/her life, or was buried in Fentress County. 3.. An individual not qualifying in at least one (1) of the three (3) conditions stated above, does not qualify to be included in this book. Frequently asked questions: Q: What about those who served in the Revolutionary War but moved to this area and are buried here? A: If the veteran lived and/or died in the part of any early county that later became Fentress County, that person qualifies. Q: What if my veteran lived in the part of Fentress County that later became Pickett County? If he went into service from Fentress County, at any time lived in Fentress County or died and is buried in Fentress County, he qualifies. Q: How do I know which county my veteran lived in? Fentress County was established in 1823 from parts of Overton and Morgan. Pickett County was taken from Overton and Fentress Counties in 1880. Use these dates to determine the county makeup at the time your veteran served. Fentress County Historical Society "Collecting and Preserving the Heritage and History of Fentress County since 1968."

Good call, Marilyn! I got the e-mail, and I thought it was odd, but it didn't occur to me that it might be someone "phishing." It was early morning though, so I wasn't thinking too clearly; also, I'm a little cranky before I finish that first cup of coffee, so instead of being obliging, I just deleted it. I guess not being a morning person can have it's "up" side!
