Hi Lanita, On my website for Shannon Co. I have been putting up some Obits which Ona Fern Warren has sent to me. I called the "Current Wave" and asked permission to post these wonderful tidbits. I also have posted their subscription info which I will gladly share for the benifit of those people who are interested. It is located at this url and has the different price rates listed: http://www.rootsweb.com/~moshanno/Newspapers.htm You may access the websites main page listed below for her obituary links. Also if you will look under Ozark Bookshop you will find several books with Genealogical information. I hope this will help some of you. Sincerely, Kathy "I was cut out to be rich.....but I was sewn up wrong!" Kathy Welch Heidel ~ mailto:[email protected] South Dakota, ASC ~ USGWP Dewey Co.

Once again, I was thinking on the line of : the queries from historians, historical tidbits, ("100 years ago" news : items, etc) or any articles/announcements along that line that I know : are in other newspapers... once again, doesn't mean it's not there, just : means I was unaware of it and was anxious to see if that was the case. : : It was obvious that I offended several of you, and I'm sorry you read : something in my message that was not intended. Sorry if I offended : ANYBODY.. : : For those of you who were alot nicer and helpful with your input, thank : you for your help. I do appreciate it. : : So back to my original thought, IS there a gen. society column in the : paper each week? or should I contact my relatives who work for the paper : to find that answer? : : Lanita : : : ==== Missouri Mailing List ==== : See http://www.rootsweb.com/~mogenweb/mo.htm for all : the available MO county lists. : : ============================== : Shop Ancestry - Everything you need to Discover, Preserve & Celebrate : your heritage! : http://shop.myfamily.com/ancestrycatalog :
