Hi Everybody!! I wanted to let you know that I have updated the Benton County web site at http://www.rootsweb.com/~tnbenton/ I have added a new section to the web site called "Newspaper Columns" thanks to Nell Morisette. She has very graciously allowed for her articles to be reproduced and added to the web site for those that don't get "The Tribune" which is a local Benton County newspaper. They are really wonderful and full of Benton County history with many past residents mentioned. I think it's a great addition to the web site. I want to thank Doris Hightower for the idea in the first place and for scanning all of the articles and sending them to me. In addition to the new section, I have added two new biographies, one of Thomas Jefferson Melton (with photograph) and one of Joseph Townsend. (Thanks Mrs. Griffith & Mrs. Broxterman) If you have a biography you would like to have added to the web site, even if your ancestor is not listed on the page, please send it to me. I am not able to add GED files to the web site because of a Rootsweb rule, but if you have family sheets, I can add those if you would rather not write a formal-type biography. I have also added a picture of Calvin Austin Hall and Elizabeth West Cherry (Thanks Mrs. Lewis). I think out collection of photographs is one of the best!! If you would like to have any of yours included, you can send me a copy attached to an email or you can send a copy snail mail to: Alison Collignon 18310 Flint Hill Drive Katy, Texas 77449 Stop by the web site when you get a chance and take a look at new information and pictures!! Have a great week! Alison
