On Tuesday, November 11, 2025, we celebrate Veterans Day in honor of those who served in the military. As many of you know, the November 11th date was chosen in recognition of the ending of hostilities in the Great War which was later known as World War I. The Blount County Genealogical and Historical Society has set up a display in the reference section of the Blount County Public Library that includes photographs of area soldiers that served during that war and a restored Maryville Times newspaper that proclaimed the end of the war. We invite everyone to remember all those who served and to come by and see our display.
