From Our Society President 

Dear Members: 

The Historical Society has the Walking Tour 
Brochures available at the 
Holliday/Dorsey/Fife House Museum, 
Fayetteville’s Welcome Center, The Chamber 
of Commerce and the Society’s Research 
Center. The walking tour’s route includes the 
Courthouse, the Depot, The Hollingsworth 
House, Jack Day Park, Heritage Park, the 
Travis House, the Culpepper House, and City 
Hall. This is the first printing and we 
welcome comments and suggestions on the 
places and route. 

The Society’s has been a sponsor of three 
historical markers this year. The Board 
welcomes suggestions for other places, events 

 and people to consider for this program. 

Several members have added to their family 
files at the Research Center. If you have the 
time over the holidays, please consider 
sending additional information for these files. 

These files are extremely helpful to 
researchers and genealogist. 
In this issue we are highlighting some of the 

photographs that are in the Society’s collection. 

Some are pictures of the scans that have been 
provided by members. The collection has over 
3000 images and increases every month through 
donations and people willing to let the Society 
scan their photographs. If you some old 
photographs and would like to participate in this 
project, give us a call and we will schedule a 
time to scan your photographs.
