Hubby got mine at the Rogersville Library right after it came out.
I've got several articles in the book, but the webpages are no longer
there. Hubby switched servers not too long after the book was
published. My mom and aunt pushed me into doing the articles. The big
thing a genealogist would point out is most of the stories are hearsay
and family tradition. The majority don't even list sources. That
particular "Heritage of..." book was published by Heritage Publi****ng
Consultants, Inc, of Clanton, AL.
If you're interested in local word-of-mouth stories, I'd highly
recommend William Q. Hill's "A History of Green Hill," Wade Pruitt's
"The Bugger Saga," and any of the "History of..." books by Jill
Garrett. I have "History of Elgin Crossroads and Nearbys" that "The
Elgin Book Committee" had Waldenhouse (www.waldenhouse.com) publish. I
haven't read much of that book, but it promises to be interesting when
I do get around to it. Dad ordered all us kids the Elgin book from the
committee for Christmas before it was published. I ordered the Green
Hill book from P-Vine Press in Columbia, TN. "The Bugger Saga" I
actually found at Barnes and Noble. I don't have copies of any of Jill
Garrett's books, but if I ever get back into genealogy, I'll find
them. Most Alabama libraries have them in their "Alabama Room".
