Tim, I just want to thank you for doing such a great job with the archives this year! You have done an outstanding job of keeping the archives up. Thanks for all your hard work! To the list: I plan on making a trip to Union Parish Courthouse one day this week. I will be glad to do some lookups while I'm there. I can't promise photo copies of everything I look up, due to the costs. Christmas has left me a little tapped out right now. But, I will take my digital camera and may be able to get some copies with that. Just let me know! Debbie Richard Original Message: ----------------- From: T. D.

Hi again, As this year draws to a close, I wish to thank all of our contributors for their work in helping to improve the Union Parish Archives. These people have contributed records since March of this year, listed chronologically: Tom Crowe Max H. Williams Bob Reeves Jim Lee Bruce Odom Maradee Liggin Cryer Edna E. Wilson Beverly Bennett James H. Williams David Dawkins Stacy Cooper Roy Hinton Nancy Blake Jan Bennett Sharon K. Ray John N. Feazell Wanda Fuller Linda Cole Calhoun Linda Duke Lyle Smith John L. Persley Marc Hollingsworth Gina Sherrard THANKS TO YOU ALL FOR YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS!!! I would also like to say a special "thank you" to several of our long-time contributors who continue to devote considerable time and energy to put many records online to assist other researchers. These people are well-known to us for their submissions over the years, and they have continued to submit numerous items for our archives this past year: Karen Mabry Rice - thanks for being such an incredible asset to the Union Parish archives with your census and cemetery contributions and support! Shawn Martin - a huge thanks to you (and to your ten fingers!) for the huge mound of transcriptions of Union Parish censuses, successions, church minutes, etc. Your work is amazing and of great benefit to me personally as well as the archives! Debbie Richards - thanks for sharing your data with the archives and list every time you visit the courthouse! Gene Barron - thanks very much for the wonderful old photographs of people and places in Union Parish - please send us more! We have a relatively new contributor to the Archives this year - Mary Anne Williams, who has braved expensive gasoline prices, rain, wind, black widow spiders, poorly marked Union Parish roads and twilight evenings in the middle of nowhere to survey Union Parish cemeteries for us. She then comes home and types them and submits to us. Please keep it up, Mary Anne (but beware of snakes when the weather warms up!!). Thanks again to all who contribute, and please continue to send in your Union Parish materials! I hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday season. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!!
