  • CONSOLIDATED INDEX and Table of Contents
    1 CONSOLIDATED INDEX And Table of Contents Volumes 19 through 25 CLARKE COUNTY PROCEEDINGS 1978 - 2003 Foreword History can be lost in the pages of many great books that have no index to open its wonders. We, the members of the second Consolidated Index Committee marvel at the tenacity and accuracy of the earlier team in setting up Volume 18 (1977) of the Proceedings, which indexed the first 17 volumes of the Clarke County Historical Association Proceedings, originally published from 1940–1976 with no indexes. In our archives, along with 3 shoeboxes of 3x5 index cards are 3 small tape cassettes with the audio record of the listing of that index for a typist. We salute these tenacious workers and hope that our efforts will be of as great a help to the reader as the earlier index has been. This new index is comprised of Volume 19 (1978) through Volume 25 (2003). The compilers have tried to be as complete and accurate as possible. Any omissions/errors/misspellings are the fault of the editor. Thanks go to Jean Sipe who went through many of these volumes checking each volume’s individual index against the volume content, and adding missed subjects. Also thanks go to Doug Bartley, our Archives Chair, who entered the index from Volume 25, and did the final corrections. (NOTE: Events are Underlined; House Names Underlined in italics; Surnames are ALL CAPS). Women have been cross-referenced as possible by maiden and married name.
