Dorothy, I read your message on York County emigrants to Obion County, TN. I write local history columns for the York Observer, a supplement of the Charlotte (NC) Observer and I also edit The Quarterly for the York County Genealogical and Historical Society. Below I include a column I wrote and on a second e-mail I will send you a blank for joining the Society. We would love to have you. If you have any questions I will be happy to try to answer them. Y C G H S Box 3061, CRS Rock Hill, SC 29732 The board members of the York County Genealogical and Historical Society are pleased to announce that The Quarterly, a publication of the Society, has proven to be an unqualified success and in June 1998 began our tenth year. We are proud that the S. C. Confederation of State and Local History Societies awarded us their 1994 ³Outstanding Publication Award.² The magazine-sized quarterly is 40 pages with a vellum protective cover. It contains articles by local historians, research tips, pages from family Bibles, eyewitness accounts, military records, old cemetery lists, reports of local preservation efforts, book reviews, etc. There is a large query section and we make every attempt to match researchers who are interested in the same families and topics. Each issue is indexed. Louise Pettus is the editor; Regal Graphics is the printer. Our fiscal year runs from June 1 to May 31. A subscriber receives all issues of the fiscal year in which he subscribes. If renewals are paid after the June 1 deadline, please add $1.50 for each late issue.
