Background
of the Journal: Over
thirty years ago (July 10, 1973), 25 individuals gathered at the
General Baptist Church in Ava to organize the Douglas County
Historical and Genealogical Society. Initial officers were
Glen Dale Hartley, President; Geneva McCullough, Vice-President;
Secretary, Marilyn Alms; and Zona
Hightower, Treasurer. One year later (July, 1974), the Society
published the first Journal. Except for the
1979 through 1984
period, during which it was inactive, the Society continued to
publish Journals with
delightful stories, remembrances, and family
information; each one of the Journals has its own personality like a
block of a patchwork quilt. Collectively, the 50 Journals
published from 1974 through Summer 2007
are slowly developing into a large but
still incomplete mosaic of the history of Douglas County, Missouri.
It
has become one the most valuable historical resources available
about the county and its inhabitants, past
and present.
