Animal Footprints in Fayette

Animal Footprints in Fayette

Our Footprints articles are written by local historians who are also volunteer members of the Fayette County Historical Commission. In the previous article, it was mentioned that the Fayette County Record had been printing the Footprints articles for over 20 years. We’d just like to mention that the articles have also appeared in many other local papers, including The Banner Press, Flatonia Argus, Schulenburg Sticker, and Weimar Mercury, and even occasionally mentioned on the local radio stations. Not only do all of your local papers support us by publishing these articles, they are also always willing to include news articles and public service announcements for the Historical Commission as well as others to help keep our Fayette County history alive. 01/31/2024 23:00
