SUBMISSIONS: East Texas Family Records welcomes previously unpublished source
material from its readers. The prime requisite for all material is that it should
be as useful in 50 years as it is today. We will strive to publish a variety of
material on each of the six counties represented by ETGS (see map on back cover).
Although exceptions may be made, material relating to our six counties prior to
1900 are of the most interest. Articles concerning other areas will be used
occasionally if of sufficient interest to many people. Material from old and/or
rare unindexed books will also be considered.
Priority will be given to courthouse, Bible and cemetery records, but we are very
interested in publishing the following types of source material:
Biographical Family Sketches Lodge Records Old Diary Accounts
Census Records Marriage Records Old Letters
Church Records Medical Records Old Maps
Commissioner's Court Minutes Military Muster Rolls Post Offices
Confederate Records Mortality Schedules Probate Abstracts
Deed and Land Records Newspaper Clippings School Lists
Jury Lists Obituaries of East Tax Lists
Library Microfilm Holdings Texas Citizens Voter Lists
(When submitting Bible records, please give name of person possessing Bible; give
date of publication, if known; make sure all information is legible and accurate
if copied by hand.)
(When submitting cemetery records, please give exact location of cemetery, date
'Tp copied, and name of copier.)
PUBLICATION: To be considered for publication, an item or article should have a
reliable reference and should not be based entirely on "tradition." We do not
wish to publish items from books now in print, however, such references may be
used as footnotes to clarify sources. Please be certain all material is legible.
Xerox copies can be used, but typewritten articles are preferred to avoid errors
in transcribing handwritten material.
Please include your name, address and day-time telephone number with all material
submitted. The editor must retain the right to accept or reject materials and to
edit those chosen for publication. Credit will be given to each contributor. If
requested, material may be returned, otherwise it will become property of the society.
QUERIES: Queries submitted by members will be published as space is available.
Please type or print each query on a separate sheet of paper. Capitalize all surnames
and include at least one date and place. Limit your query to 8 to 10 typed
lines and carefully recheck for accuracy.
SUBMISSION DEADLINES: Spring Issue - February 15 Fall Issue - August 15
Summer Issue - May 15 Winter Issue - October 15
