Good Morning, Idahoans!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you and your family and
friends. I hope this holiday season finds each and every one of you in good
health and sound mind. If so, then spread the holiday cheers to those who
could stand the need of your Christmas cheers.
All is well on the homefront with me and my family. Looking forward to a
simple Christmas cheers and holiday cookin’. I’ve been busy these past
three months with my new job. Today is my third month anniversary on the
job. Rhapsody and I have been enjoying coming to work every day. I’ve been
busy working and researching on those early Pope County Arkansans who came
and went during the early years of its county’s birth. I found out that
Pope County wasn’t the original county’s name but Lovely County after a
part Native American gal, Persis Lovely, under the Lovely’s Purchase. Of
course, this only lasted for a couple of years before the state’s
Congressmen decided to change its name to Pope County.
Well, soon the New Year’s will bring another year for all of us to renew
our effort to add more to our websites. I hope to bring more new items on
IDGenWeb Project this coming year after being settle in this new job along
with all my other projects from the library and my own personal family
research.
