Nashville Historical Newsletter


Much history, and therefore much of the stream of life, passes us by--never recorded, never honored, and after a while, never remembered.

The mission of the Nashville Historical Newsletter is to provide a medium for historical sharing. Your participation is invited and encouraged. In addition to this Web site, we publish e-mailed editions of Nashville Historical Newsletter. To request to receive these, e-mail us by clicking here.

We can also be reached by phone at 615-293-3832.

All essays submitted to us will be considered for inclusion
both on this site and in forthcoming books.

If you find errors in any of the information on this site please contact us.

The editors of the NHN will conduct, for small groups, seminars entitled "Nashville History: An Introduction to Our Heritage."
Contact us for details.

We did not just happen upon the present: the past is the impetus for today.

Kathy Lauder, editor
