Diamond Rio's song "In God We Still Trust" will not be played by major radio stations for it's not considered as "politically correct". This song was never released for sale to the public. Go to Phyllis' Thoughts to listen to it and view the clip. The link is located near the top of the webpage there.

USEFUL INFORMATION
Records prior to 1907 can be found at the Coffee County Courthouse.
Records since 1907 are at the Coffee County Courthouse Annex.
The Elba Public Library has several older census reports and a list of Confederate veterans.
Birth and death records can be in-hand within 20 minutes at the Coffee County Health Department for a fee of twelve dollars.
I received news that the Pea River Historical and Genealogical Society was once located in the library of the Enterprise State Junior College, and that when the Society moved, there were many records left behind at the library. I have not researched this...if someone does check this out, please inform me of what you discover concerning this.

The Coffee County Courthouse Annex, Pea River Historical and
Genealogical Society and Pea River Historical and Genealogical Society Museum ARE within five minutes walking distance of each other (no more than two city blocks)!!

The Library at Andalusia has all of Covington County's Census Records--I am not sure about Coffee.
The Public Library at Troy has printed copies of several Coffee County
censuses---and, of course, others on microfilm. They also have nearby
counties. Our thanks to Galier Miller for this information.
