I am sorry but apparently I didn't make myself clear when I posted the
following message. Several people have written and told me they want a copy and
asked me about how much it is and where to send money. There may not be any
book to buy unless we all write to the addresses below and ask the library and
the Historical Society to publish the reprint. They need to know that there is
a large number of people who are wanting to buy the book. That may give them
the incentive to look into getting the rights and finding someone to publish
the reprint. You can't order the book from me. I have nothing personal to gain
from this except the opportunity to buy the book if the reprint is made.

Hello Everyone,
I am just wanting to find out how many list members would be interested
in getting a reprint done of the book, "Switzerland County, Indiana,
Cemetery Inscriptions, 1817-1985" by Wanda L. Morford. The book has
been out of print for some time and
Ms. Morford is deceased. I have been told that the Switzerland Co.
Library has considered getting a reprint made. It seems they aren't sure
if they can get the rights to do it but maybe if we can convince them
that there are enough people who would be willing to buy the book, they
might move forward with the project. I have also been told that if the
rights are available and the library isn't able to have the reprint
made, the Switzerland Co. Historical Society might be willing to do it.
I am following this message with the addresses of both places and if you
would like to have the book made available, please write and make a
request. I am posting this to the Jefferson Co. list also in case some
of those members might be interested.
Thank you,
Ardath Blue
