List Readers: There is an old saying in Barry County that was used a long time ago. If someone was busy they'd say it was a busy day at the mill today Well, it was a busy day at the mill yesterday! Here is what happened. Our thanks to Diana Cope who sent us the donation number for Hilton Cemetery So in case you have been needing that we now have it posted. Also she added that the old time settler - Jonathan Hilton - was her husband's 4th great grandfather. That is very neat! I am always proud to say that I have several 4th great grand parents who settled in Barry County. http://www.rootsweb.com/~mobarry/cemetery/hilton/hilton.htm A big thanks to Cindy Van Horn Wood who sent us some nice Long photos of her Long family line. She decends from John Dake and Martha (Dennis) Long. They had 14 children and are buried in Keen Cemetery. Her John was a son of John Dake and Lavina (Bellah) Long and a grandson of Hiram and Anna (Lakey) Long. He was also a brother to my 2nd great grandfather, George Long who married Sarah Frances Smith. Here are the links to two photos I posted today. http://www.rootsweb.com/~mobarry/photos/photoalbum2/long.john.fam.1.htm http://www.rootsweb.com/~mobarry/photos/photoalbum2/long.john.fam.2.htm Our thanks to Linda Stephens McCormick for another nice photo. She sent us one of Francis Marion Henderson. The photo was taken when he was about 30 years old and in about 1861. It is really a nice photo and so good to have it on our web site. I love old photos of our pioneers. They add so much to our understanding of Barry County and who our ancestors were. http://www.rootsweb.com/~mobarry/photos/photoalbum2/henderson.f.m.htm We now have over 700 photos from Jay Trace's submission on the Monett pages and another 460 or 470 or so from other projects. When I woke up this morning I realized that I had been posting cemetery photos in my dreams. That was when I decided to go shopping. [smile] Don't worry I am back at the post and back to the Monett cemetery stones. This is such a nice file that we are building for Monett. There seems to be no end to the facts that we are adding with the stone photos. It is really much like a giant jigsaw puzzle with no ending so it is far from boring. Jay, again, thanks so much for all you do. Here is the link. http://www.rootsweb.com/~mobarry/cemetery/monett/monett.htm Keep up the good work and don't do too much at the mill today. Donna Cooper
