I do not remember receiving anything about it, however, I would definitely be interested in contributing towards a Grimes County Genealogy/History Book. >> I think the book in question was in a post from the Montgomery County GenWeb county coordinator. Grimes County was formed from Montgomery County. Here is the post: ********* The Montgomery County Genealogical and Historical Society only has about 100 copies of The History of Montgomery County left. We have just started a program to ensure all schools in Montgomery County have a copy of this wonderful book. To offset expensives, we need sponsors to help fund this program. The books are now selling for $35.00 (plus $5.00 for postage). Bluebonnet Sponsorship=$10.00-$25.00 Mockingbird Sponsorship=$50.00-$100.00 Lone Star Sponsorship=$200.00-$500.00 To sponsor, please send your name (or company name), address, phone and email address along with payment to MCGSH P. O. Box 867 Conroe, TX 77305-0867 Please be sure and mark it as sponsor. Vol. 2 is now in the planning stages. This will take quite some time, so publication is not expected for 4-5 years.It has been 20 years since Vol. 1 was published, so there is lots to add. I will let everyone know when we will be accepting family information, so don't wait to start on this. Start getting the information ready along with photos. thanks, Jane Keppler ************ To my knowledge, Grimes County is not working on a history book. If anyone knows different, please let me know. Eleanor Colson
I am wondering if there is any mention of the HADLEY family in either of the later books? Joshua HADLEY married Joyce/Joice FLOYD, widow of William T. FLOYD. She later married a McGUFFIN after Joshua's death. I am interested in the HADLEY-FLOYD's families. I am trying to find the maiden name of Joyce FLOYD HADLEY MCGUFFIN. IF anyone knows I would love to have the information and proof. Thank you, Vickye White Tarzan, TX [email protected]
