I would like to take this opportunity to thank Joy Locke and everyone at the Monroe County historical website. Having worked on a similar site and organization and having spent so much time looking at others from around the country and other states. I want to go on record and say that I believe the Monore County website to be the number one best looking, best information, best laid out, the most organized, and the most kept up to date. You guys always seems to have something new that you are working on or adding. I just wish every county in all the states were as dedicated as the folks in Monore County are. Keep up the great work.
