FootNote
The new kid on the block, FootNote is known for digitizing historical
documents... many of which are genealogical gems. With naturalizations,
city directories, war records, newspapers, town records, etc... this new
kid is quickly being recognized as an alternative to Ancestry.
While we know our northern friends may not feel it, in the South, Spring is
here. So we thought we'd share a few of our gardening sites appropriate
for this time of the year. Along with gardening, there's grilling, and getting
ready to diet so that you can fit back into that bathing suit this summer!
Town 24, Range 5 east of the Third Principal Meridian, is
Martin. It is six miles square; is the second from the east line of the
county, and the third from the north and south lines. The center of it is
twenty-two miles north of east of Bloomington. The Mackinaw runs entirely
across its northern tier of sections, and three-fourths of this tier were
covered originally with timber. The remainder of the township is
prairie-land of the finest kind, both in the richness of its soil and its
adaptability to thorough culture at all times.
