Re Teresa's question
We don't mean to exclude ANY counties, and as far as we're concerned, anyone
interested in genealogy is welcome to come to the fair. We just thought a
two hour drivetime was reasonable for most people coming to a 10-3 event.
When the invitations to Gen Societies were sent out, I know they went as far
north as Itawamba, since many Clay Countians came to our area from AL
through Itawamba. I don't recall how far west beyond Webster and Attala,
but I believe they went as far south as Kemper and Neshoba, based on queries
we received about the Fair. I know some went to AL counties.
Guess I should have just asked for everyone's help. Thanks to all of you,
Rebecca

Hey Rebecca, and anyone that can help....I have no idea of driving
time
between
counties. I believe Winston Co. is close enough, but not sure about
Washington
Co.
Or I could just put the notice on both counties anyway???
