I have subscribed to the Republican for many years, as did my parents before me, for we had ancestors and relatives living there. For a lot of years there was a weekly column in the Woodville Republican called From the Files of the Republican. It had news in 25 year increments covering the past 175 years, but when Mr. John Lewis health failed, and he later died, the column stopped. Now his son Andy is the editor. Recently I wrote him, asking him to reinstate the column telling him it is interesting to many people and a big aid to genealogist. For those of you doing research in Wilkinson County I would like to suggest you write Mr. Andy Lewis, P. O. Box 696, Woodville MS 39669 and ask him to reinstate this column. Maybe if enough people show an interest in bringing the column back he will reinstate it. Ella McCaleb Young
