Hi, Due to multitudes of contacts by both e-mail and phone asking for more time, on Saturday, November 17th Robeson County Heritage Book Committee unanimously voted to extend the dead line for submissions until  JANUARY 15, 2002! For those who would like to submit an article on your Robeson County Ancestor(s), you now have a limited "window of opportunity".  Do not let this opportunity slip by, and start working on your article now!   For all that our ancestors have done for us before we were even born, we really owe them a lasting tribute in this book. We must  remember, that if we don't write an article for them, then it is likely that no one will do it for us. We already have hundreds of articles submitted, so don't let yours be left out. As long as the main subject of your article was here in Robeson County at sometime during his/her life [born, died, married or resided], then you are eligible to write about them.  This is a limited opportunity so don't miss the boat. You may submit your family story for publication in this professionally printed high quality hard bound book for free [see brochure for qualifications].  As you already know, only one Family Article can be published under the free status.  But, where there is a, will then there is a way.  If you would like to know more about submitting additional articles, then contact me directly at: SAWESTGTWY@gateway.net Please click on to the site below for more information and details on how to submit articles: http://www.geocities.com/bjbarnhill/heritage.html If you would like a printed brochure, just e-mail us with your name and s-mailing address, and one will be mailed to you. All submissions of articles/stories should be mailed directly to: Robeson County Heritage Book Committee PO Box 2292 Lumberton, NC   28359 Remember, this is your window of opportunity. Best wishes, Sam West Lumberton [Robeson Co], NC
