    1. Re: [MOLAWREN-L] In concert at Baptist Hill, May 29, 1921 & County History Book

    3. Pat, I, too, would be interested in a .jpg image of the concert at Baptist Hill, May 29, 1921. As you probably know, postings to MOLAWREN cannot contain attachments. At least I think that rule is still in effect. So you will have to send the photo directly to the individuals that request it. As for the Lawrence County History book "done near 1900," you will have to identify which you are interested in. You have already received some responses about the Lawrence County section of the 1888 Goodspeeds Missouri Illlustrated. The other is the three-volume set: "The Ozark Region, It's History & It's People," Volumes I & II; History of Lawrence County, Missouri: Biographical, Volume III, edited by A. W. Haswell, Springfield, Mo.: Interstate Historical Society, 1917. Volume 1, 353 pages, is a history of the Ozarks and Missouri (225 pages) and a history of Lawrence County. Volume 2, 391 pages, continues the history of Lawrence County and starts the Lawrence County biographical section. Volume 3, 374 pp., is all Lawrence County biographical. My page numbers are numbered pages which does not include photographs which are on unnumbered pages. I have a copy of volume 1 which was given to me when I was in high school. I have photocopies of the other two volumes. I, too, would like to get copies of the original books of volumes 2 and 3. The copyright has expired on these volumes and Higginson books http://www.higginsonbooks.com/ will make a reproduction for you. I have never ordered from them and cannot make any recommendation on whether or not to do so nor on the quality of their reproductions. MO0042 (LAWRENCE CO.) THE OZARK REGION: Its History & Its People. Including every-name index courtesy of the Lawrence Co. Historical Society. Ed. by A.M. Haswell. 3 volumes, 371+414+396p. (Interstate Histo. Soc.; 1917) 1997. $43.50/vol. or $119.00/set Volume I, History. Volume II & III, Biographical sketches. Index only: 64p., typescript, paperback: $13.00 The LCHS index is a surname index only. They also sell a reproduction of Goodspeed's entire volume. I have reprints of for each county section, but not an original. MO0049 HISTORY OF NEWTON, LAWRENCE, BARRY & McDONALD COUNTIES, from the Earliest Time to the Present, Including a Department Devoted to the Preservation of Sundry Personal, Business, Professional & Private Records, etc. With index. 1092+92p. (Goodspeed Pub. Co.; 1888) 1997. $111.00 Hope this helps. Ross Cameron >>> [email protected] 05/17/03 09:18PM >>> Man, what a response. I have the option to jpg the file or put it in a PDD file. I can do other's too, but they don't down load and copy/print easily. PDD would only open in a Photo program like Adobe Photo Shop. I can try attaching both kinds of files and you can pick your poison. I'll wait a couple of more days before I send this to give people a chance to contact me. Then, I will do it all at one feld swoop. That is with an email attachment. If that doesn't work for you then we'll go from there. This isn't a money thing for me...but I might call in favors. ;-) Anyone have a "Lawrence County History" book they want to get rid of? I mean the big one done in near 1900.
