7 July 2004 Mo-Abstracts A Read-Only List ``````````````````````` Hello Listers, I received the following notice today and am sharing it with you. Leslie (Bridges) Kohler ``````````````````````````````` The Fourth Annual Franklin County Missouri History Fair (sponsored by the Franklin County Historical Society) will be held Sunday, November 7 (beginning at 1:30 p.m. and running until about 5:00) at the Regional Training Center on the East Central College campus (Conference Rooms A & B). Historical societies and other related organizations can request a table for this event by contacting Sue Cooley Blesi at [email protected] This college is located off of Highway 50; between Union, Missouri and I-44. Almost all of the historical societies in Franklin County will be represented and will have a table where they will offer books, calendars, videotapes, postcards, plates, and other items for sale. In addition, other organizations will be represented that have a connection to history, such as the public library, the Family History Center, etc. and publishers, authors and artists whose works relate to Franklin County history. Historical societies from other counties are invited to participate as well and we hope the State Historical Society and/or Missouri Historical Society will be able to attend. This is a great opportunity for those of us who are interested in history and/or genealogy to get together and compare notes. A lot of people have made family connections at past history fairs and the event has grown each year. There is no charge for attending or participating in this event but it is necessary that I know who is coming so we can request the right number of tables and get set up. Donations to the Franklin County Historical Society would be appreciated (but are not required) as there is some expense in setting up this event. A meal will *not* be served, but there will be some food and drink items available.
