Please disregard the announcement that I was no longer adding excerpts of obituaries found in the Dillon Herald. The Herald now has their own web site and recent obituaries are available on their site at http://www.thedillonherald.com/

 I have since learned that the only complete obituaries, after July 1, that will be on the Dillon Herald site are those that have elected to have the obituary posted. I have now updated my excerpts and will be adding them again as I have done in the past.

A copy of “Our Clan” by Marvin Moody dated July 26, 1953 has been donated. The eight-page pamphlet is a brief history of the Tapley Moody – Solomon Sanderson clans.

A copy of “Abstracts from the Columbia Register Newspaper - January 1878 - December 1885” by Mark J. Lynn has arrived.  Contains paid announcements, news stories, reports of coroner’s inquests, and items mentioned in the local happenings (Registered Dots) column. Some were reprinted in The Daily Register from other newspapers across the state.

For those of you who purchased a copy of the book “Descendants of the Rev. David Owens” by Daniel K. Owens from the Pee Dee Chapter of the SCGS, we have dicovered that a page is missing.  If you will let me know I will send you a copy of the missing page.  I can either send it by attachment to an email or by postal.
