Exciting Times in History: Sept. 2, 1976
Sept. 2, 1976
From The Monroe Evening Times, Sept. 2, 1976.

In September 1976, the Green County Courthouse received a facelift, as the original, 85-year-old wooden clock hands had become rotten and worn. 

As the Monroe Times celebrates 125 years of publishing history from Monroe, Green County, and the state line region, we are looking back on the middle portion of that timespan: Specifically the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. We’ll feature prior stories and moments of historical relevance from our paper’s archives throughout the year.
