Carolyn,
I’m sorry we are too late. I would be very happy, however, to include a paragraph on your books. Would you like to devise one. Of course the emphasis here would need to be on Jane Ewing Ratekin. The publishing information can certainly be included. Our genealogists are avid readers and depending on whether someone notes a connection with Jane and her lineage, they might very well choose to make a purchase.
Please send whatever you wish us to publish by return.
We will, of course, be very interested in the progress on your next book.
Sincerely,
Beth Ewing Toscos

Hello,
Pleased to meet you, Beth. Yes, the book title is Fulton, Missouri, 1920 - 1960. It is the second volume in my "History in stories and photos" series. The first book was Fulton, Missouri 1820 - 1920. It was published in 2010.
I'm afraid it's too late to get a Jane Ewing Ratekin photo in the book. I sent the query to the Ewing Family Association at the last minute, after we had tried to find one here in Fulton. There are many photos at the Kingdom of Callaway Historical Society that haven't been digitized yet. I was sure Jane would turn up in one of those boxes, but she didn't.
I was scheduled to present the program and do a book signing at the Historical Society annual meeting on October 23, so I had to call it "good enough" and publish. I included the article without a picture.
Both books are available in paperback on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Fulton-Missouri-1920-History-Photographs/dp/150273155X/
The books were also published in hardcover by a different company. Here's the link: http://www.lulu.com/shop/carolyn-branch/fulton-missouri-1920-1960/hardcover/product-21861459.html
I'm glad you got in touch with me, because my next project will focus on the history of South Callaway and the Ewing family was very active in that area.

Carolyn,
I’d like to introduce myself. My name is Beth Ewing Toscos. I’m the newly elected Board Chair for the Ewing Family Association.
In August you sent a query regarding Jane Ewing Ratekin. I’d like to include this in the next issue of the Ewing Family Association Journal which will be published in November. Many of the our members don’t use electronic media, so I feel there might be some benefit to putting in our printed book.
If this is alright with you, I also need to ask for clarification on the dates of the book you’re producing. The google message states “Fulton Missouri - 1920-196”. There appears to be one digit missing. While I’m guessing it’s a “0”, I’d rather you’d clarify this for me.
Thank you,
Beth Ewing Toscos mbto...@comcast.net
