We have a page on the Wayne County, Tennessee Genealogy and History page that lists all the known published (printed) source materials: county records, census records, marriages, cemetery records, etc. The address is http://www.netease.net/wayne/recordbooks.htm Other published materials that are available to the public are listed at http://www.netease.net/wayne/sources.htm There may be some recent publications that are not listed on these pages. I've not updated them in over two years. If you have information on a publication relating to Wayne County, Tennessee history, genealogy, folklore or records that is not listed on any of the aforementioned pages, please let me know and I'll list it. In order to add the publication to the listing, I need full bibliographic information. And just a reminder that the publication does not need to have been published in hard copy (paper) or microform format. If it is a digital publication, I'd like to know about those too. The writer's question brings up a question I've asked several times of the list. Are the listings on the Contents page clear enough for you to be able to find the information you are seeking? All this information is familiar to me and I sometimes forget that other researchers and readers might not be able to locate items the same way I do. If you have comments or suggestions (or criticisms) concerning the layout of the pages, please let me know. If we can make it easier for you to find the information you are seeking then we will certainly be obliged to do so. I've also tried to keep the page file size small enough that it doesn't take forever to download. There are a couple of exceptions and I will be working on them as time permits. I know some people like all kinds of bells and whistles on a page, but I keep in mind that there are people out there in cyberland that are like me - they have a slow dialup connection instead of DSL or cable. Oh, how I wish I could tap into the main backborn trunk that is buried just across the street from my house - Six huge fiber optic cables that link NYC and LA - talk about download speed!!!! Edgar

    3. Hi Edgar, I think that the page is great as it is, and I usually don't have any trouble finding what I need when I look for things, but sometimes I don't look very well. I really enjoy the search engine, and I wish that other counties had as much information on their page. I hope that your arm is getting better, and your arm will be back to normal soon. We do appreciate all of the hard work that you all do. Joyce Tuverson "Edgar D.
