The monthly meeting of the Moultrie County Historical & Genealogy Society was held on September 18th, with 32 members present.

Speakers for September were from the three American Legion Posts in Moultrie County. Mike Keown from Sullivan Post# 68 led off by giving everyone a history of the Legion, starting in 1919 when the Doughboys came home from Europe. This service organization was founded to help veterans with jobs, medical services, and the widows of fallen veterans.
