For many years, The
Jacksonville Story was one of this city's most popular websites.
Designed, written and managed by Jacksonville librarian Glenn Emery, this website
went out of existence with Glenn's untimely death on December 16, 2006.
The loss of Glenn was a blow to the local historical community. And for
all of the teachers, students, researchers, and interested people who
visited The Jacksonville Story,
the loss of the website was a cause for sadness as well.
With the cooperation of Glenn's family and the Jacksonville Historical
Society, we are pleased to bring back The
Jacksonville Story, as a tribute to Glenn and his tireless
efforts, and as a service to the community as well.
