Dean, I recently searched copies of the Johnston County Capitol Democrat from the '30's and '40's at the Okla. Historical Museum in OK City. They have microfilmed copies of the Capitol Democrat and other early Johnston Co. papers (Milburn and Ravia, etc.). Especially interesting for family researchers are the "local" columns from Emet, Milburn, Ravia, etc. Kay E.
