Dear List Members,
If you are not interested in this message just hit the delete button.
However, I have noticed that there are quite a few people on the lists to
which I belong who are in East Texas, researching East Texas Families, or
who might be traveling this way. Please pass this information along to
anyone who micht be interested.
I am a reguar member of this list and a member of the Angelina County
Genealogical Society. Please help us get out the word about our special
speaker for our Monday night August 15, 2005, meeting. The society has
delayed the program 1 hour from our regular meeting time to give out-of-town
people that have day jobs a little more time to get there.
The Angelina Society actively supports the Ora McMullen Room and the John
Wilkins Collection for Genealogy Research. Check it and us out if you are
traveling our way or have an interest in our area. There are several people
who work in the genealogy room who volunteer on a regular basis besides the
paid public library staff. They are available to help with a limited amount
of research. 1-936-630-0560. Ask for the Ora McMullen Room. They can
point you in the right direction for your research.
