Does anybody have any news about when the Claiborne County History Vol II will be released? Bob Branham Dallas, TX (214) 341-4993

I have received no new updates regarding the status of the book, since I posted this on 2/8/05 (sorry for the repeat, folks): "Around the first part of January, I spoke with Joyce Ramsey, President of the Claiborne County Historical and Genealogical Society, and during our conversation we discussed the status of the new Heritage Book. There have been several delays on the publisher's end, so basically we were stuck in neutral while the publisher was getting their problems all taken care of. Because of the delays, the publisher has had to subcontract much of their work out in order to get caught up with all of their customers they serve. From what Joyce is told me at that time, she and two others were editing and finalizing the text one last time, something they should have been able to do months ago, but again, the publisher's delay, and once the people sub-contracted down in Mississippi get everything back, laid out, prepped and ready to go, the images will then go to North Carolina and the publishing will take place there. I can assure you that Joyce, along with everyone else who has worked on getting this book completed, has been just as frustrated as everyone else is, but this is how things go in the publishing business, and we have absolutely no control over it whatsoever. I'm feel confident however, that the finished product will make it worth the wait, so if everyone would please just be patient, you will hopefully have the new book in your hands very soon." So, I can only assume that everything above is still "in the works". Rome wasn't built in a day, and apparently, so are books as well. ;-) Cheers, Darrell ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, March 04, 2005 10:44 AM Subject: [TNCLAIBO-L] Claiborne County History > Does anybody have any news about when the Claiborne County History Vol > II > will be released? > > Bob Branham > Dallas, TX > (214) 341-4993 > > > ==== TNCLAIBO Mailing List ==== > Please remember....NO FLAMES, NO SOLCITING, VIRUS WARNINGS, JOKES, > POLITICS, ATTACHMENTS, PRAYERS, etc., should be posted to the list. > We are here strictly for exchanging information and genealogy research > on our folks from Claiborne County. >
