I'm with you, Rob - I would also love to have a copy of Volume #1. Jean S.

I have #2 but would love to get the 1st vol. I wonder how many of our subscribers and members of the Benton Co. Gen.Soc. are also looking for the 1st volume - and if there was a high level of interest, would it be possible to have a second printing of the book made? What with all of the technology that goes with printing and copying these days - is it possible to have the book brought back in a paperback kind of reprint format? I love the way the 2nd volume and the cemetery book were bound but would settle for something of lesser beauty if it meant that I could have the book. Just some thoughts. Count me as one interested customer. Thanks. Rob Ayres >>
