The Moniteau County Historical Society will proceed with the building addition to the genealogy and research library.

The decision was made at a recent building committee meeting. Co-chairs Carl Gatlin and Paul Jungmeyer presided.

"We had decided that when about two-thirds of the funds were either in hand or pledged, it was time to begin the building," said Gatlin.
