Ansearchin’ News is the Tennessee Genealogical Society’s quarterly magazine which highlights historical stories, photos, documents, databases, etc., about Tennessee's past.
Tina Sansone is the new editor for Ansearchin' News and she is currently taking submissions: articles, photos, documents, Bible pages, transcriptions, etc. If you have the information and need someone to write the article, contact Tina and she can assist you with that. Photos should reflect your ancestors and/or something during their era such as their photos, transportation, home life, foods, occupations, nature, or anything with their way of life. [in the future we will focus on the descendants.]
While membership to the Tennessee Genealogical Society is welcome, it is not mandatory for submissions. The only condition is each submission must have a Tennessee connection - either lived in or had family in Tennessee or have taken place in Tennessee.
She is also looking for one-time submissions, or even regular writers who will submit an article each quarter. If someone is transcribing microfilm or documents that pertain to Tennessee, that would be welcomed as well. If there is any question on ownership, such as photos, a release form may be requested. To view if a topic or surname has been written about, use our Ansearchin’ News search box.
If interested, email Tina at editor@tngs.org and tell her about your idea. She can send you the specifics such as font, etc. There is no limit on word count – if the article is too long she can divide it into parts.
