MH&GS POLICY ON THE REPLACEMENT OF PERIODICALS: The Mesquite Historical & Genealogical Society strives to publish a maximum of genealogical information at minimum costs, in order that the Society's publications may be widely available to all who are interested. Consistent with this objective, certain restraints are necessary in regard to replacement of periodicals which were not received by the intended recipients. Hence, if a member, institution, or other organization fails to receive a copy of The Mesquite Tree, the Society Publication, MH&GS must be notified within six months of the publication date of that issue. Otherwise, the intended recipient will be supplied a replacement copy only if copies are still available and only at the published price. The MH&GS Newsletter primarily carries news of short-term interest and back issues will not normally be available. If there is a special need for back issues, the recipient will be quoted a price for which they may be ordered.
THE MESQUITE HISTORICAL & GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY is under the sponsorship of the Mesquite Public Library, Jeanne Johnson, Director of Library.
BOOK REVIEWING: We accept genealogical or historical books for review; after the review has been published in The Mesquite Tree publication, the book will be placed in the Mesquite Public Library.
