Hi, In answer to your question, yes, for those who move VERY QUICKLY, the Vol. 1 can be bought at the $55 presell price. THAT IS, MAIL $55.00 TOMORROW. This is the last call. Vol. 2 is also still available. The price on it has been reduced by the folks who first had it published. (they are tired of storing the books) I am CCing this message to Sanna Gaffney. Write her and she will let you know exactly what the SHIPPED price of the Vol. 2 is. Both Vol. 1 & 2 have local area history, as well as some information about the early churches of Watauga. And then, of course, there are all those family articles. By the way, the numbers referenced in the indexes of the books refer to article numbers, not page numbers. A great place to find more local history, as well as some family histories, is in the John Preston Arthur book, A HISTORY OF WATAUGA COUNTY. That book is online here: http://www.geocities.com/familysnooper/Arthur/contents.html That book is in public domain and has been reprinted and can also be purchased from Sanna. Any profit Sanna has from the sale of these sort of things is used either to purchase genealogy materials for the Watauga public library, or is used to help pay for a scholarship at ASU. Not positive on those details, but Sanna will be glad to fill you in if you will ask her about it. Remember, this is the LAST CALL for the Vol. 1 at $55.00! If you need more information, please feel free to ask. I did have someone tell me they have received their Vol. 1 reprint yesterday. Sharon > Hi!
