The local history book, “Reflections of our Memories,” a book about memories of Crab Orchard and surrounding areas published in 1994 has been indexed and added to our Master Local History Index.

The book was put together in 1994 by a history committee and the book was available through the Crab Orchard Library. Contents include brief histories of many of the local school districts, cemeteries, churches and villages around and including Crab Orchard. The majority of the book is based on interviews conducted by the committee with older Crab Orchard area citizens.
