It contains a general history, a brief history of each county, and numerous biographical sketches of prominent citizens in each county. Ripley is included in this document as are many other counties in the Southern MO and Northern AR region. There are also a BUNCH of biographical sketches on many folks that lived in the region. If you have any relatives who lived in Ripley or surrounding counties during the time from when the County was founded til around 1890 or so they may be listed in here. I'll be happy to do lookups for folks and if there is enough interest I may see if Jackie will post this to the Ripley website.
