Other meetings this year are planned for:

There is also a plan for August 23, 2003 for an all day Genealogy workshop. There will be more about this in an upcoming newsletter.
September 23, 2003 at the library and speaker Mrs. Foree about tools from the area.
The 1930 Census of Trimble County is now at the library on microfilm.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank Harold Ethington of the Ethington Family Organization for sending us the DNA Signature of the American Ethington Families. This is a very informative book he has put together. I encourage anyone who might be interested in the Ethington Family read it and maybe email him at Harold-ethington@att.net or if you are at a dead end and unable to sort out family, this might be something you wish to look into.
QUERIES:
Do you have any information about this family who would have farmed in the area around 1840-1880? Some of the individuals would be Emma Strother Hutchison, Thomas J. Hutchison, Charles Early Hutchison, George William Hutchison or Henry Strother Hutchison. John Fletcher Strother was a Methodist Minister who was Emma's father, and was in the area around 1840. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
