POLICIES
SUBMISSIONS: East Texas Family Records welcomes previously unpublished source
material from its readers. The prime requisites for all materials are that they should be as
useful in 50 years as they are today. We will strive to publish a variety of material on each
of the six counties represented by ETGS ( see map on back cover).
Although exceptions may be made, material relating to our six counties prior to 1900 are of
the most interest. Articles concerning other areas will be used occasionally if of sufficient
interest to many people. Material from old and/or rare unindexed books will also be
considered.
Priority will be given to courthouse, Bible and cemetery records, but we are very interested
in publishing the following types of source material.
Biographical Family Sketches Lodge Records Old Diary Accounts
Census Records Marriage Records Old Letters
Commissioners Court Minutes Military Muster Rolls Post Offices
Confederate Records Mortality Schedules Probate Abstracts
Deed and Land Records Newspaper Clippings School Lists
Jury Lists Obituaries of East Tax Lists
Library Microfilm Holdings Texas Citizens Voter Lists
When submitting Bible records, please give name of person possessing Bible, give date of
publication, if known, make sure all information is legible and accurate if copied by hand.
When submitting cemetery records, please give exact location of cemetery, date copied and
name of copier.
PUBLICATION: To be considered for publication, an item or article should have a reliable
reference and should not be based entirely on "tradition." We do not wish to publish items
from books now in print, however, such references may be used as footnotes to clarify
sources. Please be certain all material is legible. Xerox copies can be used, but typewritten
articles are preferred to avoid errors in transcribing handwritten material.
Please include your name, address and day-time telephone number with all material
submitted. The editor must retain the right to accept or reject materials and to edit those
chosen for publications. Credit will be given to each contributor. If requested, material may
be returned, otherwise it will become property of the Society.
QUERIES: Queries submitted by members will be published as space is available. Please
type or print each query on a separate sheet of paper. Capitalize all surnames and include
at lease one date and place. Limit your query to 8 or 10 typed lines and carefully recheck
for accuracy.
SUBMISSION DEADLINES: Spring issue - January 15 Fall issue - - June 15
Summer issue - March 15 Winter issue - September 15
