If my memory serves me correctly, I found a copy of the Ellis Bailey book some time ago at the Clayton Genealogy Library in Houston. So there may be other copies out there at other genealogy libraries, free to browse.

It was to me, but then there was quite a write-up on my family. I guess it's worth different prices to different people. Actually, the market value is around $125. I got that figure from searching out-of-print sites for it a while back. Karen (Brooks) Cotten ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

Do we have a connection??? :~}
A History of Hill County, Texas 1838-1965 by Ellis Bailey is currently for sale on eBay. I am not the seller. I just noticed it was there and thought someone might be interested. This book is long out of print and worth the price that is currently on it. http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1414448570 Karen (Brooks) Cotten ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

Does anyone that has one of these books know if my Newby family is mentioned in it, if so I would be interested in bidding on it. My wants are very big right now and here is another to add. Thanks for any help. Sug Fitzner
Deanna, Leah was a cousin of mine. So I guess we are only connected through cousins. If you have any information on Leah's children or their families I would appreciate having it.

My great-grandfather, Eugene L. Nunnelee (aka "E.L." aka "Lavarsha"), was a school teacher in Hill County - could have been in Hubbard or other nearby towns...... He died in Hubbard 09 May 1909. I know the Whitney Messenger was being published in Hill Co before 1909, is there some way I can find out if they have archived issues around this date? And, if so, get a transcription or microfilm copy by mail? I don't know for sure but I would think being a schoolteacher there might have been an obituary...............? Also, there is no-telling how our surname could be spelled - g-g/f E.L. said no one ever gets it right!!! Thankyou in advance for any guidance!
