I am writing my dissertation about MONROE COUNTY, MISSISSIPPI and that region
of NORTHEAST MISSISSIPPI from about 1700 to 1875 and am searching for family
and personal papers of citizens of Monroe County between 1821 and 1875 that
are in the private possession of descendants of those same citizens. I apologize
for the unusual nature of this query and I understand that it falls outside
the range of normal queries; however, in all my research I have found that
while academic and state manuscript archives might hold much information
about Monroe County and the personal papers of some of her citizens, the
best resources are the genealogists who have made it their business to know
the county's history backwards and forwards through the eyes of their ancestors.
If any personal and family papers exist in private possession, you will
be able to direct me to them (as Mrs. Helen Crawford of Hamilton, Monroe
Co., MS, has occasionally done -- God bless her). Thank you sincerely, Theron
