4 HELP OF PUBLIC ^ NEEDED TO PRINT COUNTY HISTORY The general public in all or McHenry county can help make the ffistory r.' McHenry county--1968 a very fascinat- , ing book to their own family, said Lowell Nye, editor, this week. "The people for their own good, should be aware of the magnitude of this project. The action of the McHenry county, board of supervisors in back ing this project with county funds, the first allocation being $25,000 and the total cost expected to be double that figure, makes this generation of McHenry county citizens a favored segment of the county's history. "We suggest that every McHenry County family proud of their heritage set aside one night in their home and call it History Night. Get out the old photos from the attic. Many Of you have fine collections. This is the time those photos are needed. Why let them gather dust, doing no one any good? • "We especially need your help from 1920 up to the present. The last general McHenry county history was printed in 1922. That is 'the jumping off point. From 1920 on, I as editor need your individual and collective help to fill out Chapter IV (1911 to 1935), Chapter V (1936 to 1959) and Chapter VI (I960 to the present J" There will be no "second chance", Mr. Nye stressed. The big 900-plus book has to be ready for distribution July 15, 1968. That means deadlines for material will have to be rigidly enforced. Mr. Nye is now writing Chapter HI -- 1885 to 1910. As an example of the earnestness of the Public Relations and Education Committee of the county board in undertaking this great work, Chairman Thomas Huemaim has insisted that one of the first pages in this book will contain a diagram for a "Family Tree", so that pur- ! chasers will have a permanent, ' well known place to record their J own family history for poster- • iiy, regardless of their years * in the county, and in that conf nection the last chapter, No. 26, > will contain printed biographies 4 of families that have a county record preceding the year 1918 --fifty years from the date of publication. These families will be written up individually, on payment of $25 which includes ttse pric^ of one bo6k." 'TFie psr* son-filling-oot-tlwthreergsner^.. stioBibrmgets&ieboek. Other family members can buy one ffor $16.00, pre-publication - price. Otherwise the book will be $18.50. "At tins time: we believe Samuel Carson is the only living Spanish-American War Veteran in McHenry county," said Nye. "Are there others?"
