Hello, I'm trying to track down family information from Grayson County, but am not familiar with the area or its resources. I'm trying to locate cemetery information for Mt. Olive Cemetery as well as information on how to request obituaries for this area. I have a few questions, and could really use some assistance, as I will be doing the bulk of this research by mail. 1) Is there an index for this cemetery at a local historical society? 2) Is there a caretaker that might be able to help me? 3) What newspaper(s) through the years would have covered the town of Fries? 4) Are copies of old newspapers available at a historical society or local library? Thanks so much! Sincerely, Melissa Cecil County, Maryland
Melissa, Check out Jeff Weaver's site http://www.ls.net/~newriver/nrv.htm. There's tons of information regarding Grayson County. Jeff also hosts ncnr group through egroups and much information in this list, too. Good luck! Brenda ----- Original Message ----- From: "Melissa F.
