The Bedford County Historical Society is sponsoring a family history book to
be published by Turner Publishing Co of Paducah, KY. Anyone who has ever
lived in Bedford Co, or their descendants, is entitled to submit a family
biography (500 words, or for pioneer families 1000 words) and one photograph,
free of charge.

Deadline is January 20, 2001.

In 1886 Goodspeed did a project similar to this. Please send all the
information you can supply NOW. If it is another 114 years before the next
history of Bedford Co, some of us will not be here to participate.

Biographies should be typed, double-spaced, written in the third person (he,
she, they) however handwritten biographies will be accepted. If you want
your photograph back, write your name and address in pencil on the back and
make note to return it. Write the names of the people, the date, and the
caption on the back also.

Send your family story and photograph to
Bedford Co History Book
P. O. Box 141
Shelbyville, TN 37160

To order a book, send $52.50 (+ $6 if you want it mailed) to the address
above.

If you get this message several times, please excuse me.
