I am the new County Coordinator for the Jones Co. MS site. Please stop by for a visit. Your contributions are welcome and needed!
December
2, 2007 Pat Creel, Jackson County Coordinator has added Brenda Waltman
Knippers, as Assistant County Coordinator for Jackson County MSGenWeb.
November
30, 2007 Lauderdale County has managed several updates for the month of November including an update to several of our family pages.
The Asa Boswell family page has been updated to include photos and new information about the family.
A 1900 Meridian Star newspaper article has been added introducing the new
family page of the Jack "HellFired Jack" Woodrick family. Jack was a very
colorful railroad engineer of the 1850s and the article, a somewhat
exagerated account -- we don't really think he threw his fireman into the
furnace when he ran out of wood, offers an interesting introduction to the
family page.
Lastly, Lauderdale County now has its' own discussion board (aka Forum).
Lauderdale folks are invited to visit the forum and post genealogy,
historical information or just engage in discussions in general about
Lauderdale County. November
29, 2007
Greene County has a new coordinator! Added a What's New? page.

Also added a Green County on the Web Page to link the many sites devoted to Greene County. Also added a page for McManus Post Office, one of the historical towns no longer in existence. November

County:
Covington County has recently received permission, courtesy of Mary Renna, to post transcriptions of over 50 personal letters and documents of the Stewart and Barnes Families ranging from 1813 to 1931.
There are some real gems if you get time to read through them all. If not, browse through the Barnes Family letters from 1871, 1915, 1923, and 1924 for an interesting read. Kimberlie, Covington County Coordinator - MSGenWeb Project
