In small town America, the information that would not normally be considered news to larger, metro newspapers is what keeps a hometown newspaper interesting and desired among the readers. College honor rolls or graduations, military news, weddings, engagements, birth announcements, community and organization news - as well as the popular Years Gone By column - are some of the many categories covered in this section.

Dear Editor,
I have a story that is as awesome as the ones shown on the NBC show Who Do You Think You Are about ancestry. My father was adopted in 1912 from an orphanage in Fort Worth. All of his life, although he had a wonderful family, he wanted to know about his blood line. He kept a pink piece of paper with all of his important papers such as house deeds, insurance policies, etc. that held his DNA to his biological family. Only a few names and birth dates were on it. Before his death in 1997, I made a promise to find his people, and that, I have done, thanks to ancestry.com and the help of a genealogist in Louisiana.

Jan. 27, 2011 - On Wednesday, Jan. 19, the newly impaneled Grand Jury for Fannin County met for its first session. At that time, the Criminal District Attorney's Office presented 35 cases for their review, and all 35 were true billed. Of the 35 cases submitted, 24 involved either the illegal possession, manufacture or sale of drugs. Criminal District Attorney Richard E. Glaser reported that there has been a significant spike in cases involving suspects selling their prescription drugs for profit. Hydrocodone is the drug most frequently abused in this manner.

Jan 20, 2011 - As you navigate the financia l world, you'll most likely deal with a wide array of investment choices, constantly changing tax laws, estate-planning issues and other areas. And then, to make things even more complex, you'll have to consider your own risk tolerance, time horizon and individual goals. If you're like most people, you don't have the time and expertise to create, monitor and adjust your investment strategy by yourself, so you'll need to get some help. But how can you choose a financial professional who is right for you?
