Congratulations to the winners of our free drawing at the Old Settlers’s Reunion at Quitman last week.
The winner of the free copy of Don RANEY‘s biography and family history of Wood County’s first Anglo-American settler, “Martin VARNER: Texas Pioneer, His Life Story and His Descendants,” is Joe Wayne REYNOLDS of Quitman.
Sherma LARGENT of Quitman won the free year Wood County Genealogical Society membership for 2010-2011 and is, thus, the newest member of our society.

Just wanted to say I have thoroughly enjoyed reading the Martin Varner biography that I received from the drawings held at the Old Settler’s Reunion in August. Thank you and I hope to someday become more informed of my own family’s heritage in the East TX area, through the resources provided by the Wood Co Geneaological Society.
