Trenton Publisher Celebrates 100 Years

Nov 21, 2009 No Comments by Edward Southerland

tt_plaquetm_holmesOn October 22, 1909, the people in the southwest corner of Fannin County first got a look at their new newspaper, The Trenton Tribune. One hundred years later, folks still find out what’s going on in that part of the world with a weekly copy of the Tribune. Last month, on the paper’s one hundredth birthday, the newspaper office was packed with well-wishers to help the owner, publisher, editor, reporter, layout man, photographer, copy boy and janitor—Tom Mac Holmes wears all those hats—celebrate the birthday.

Texoma Living! was on hand and joins the chorus offering congratulations with—Happy Birthday Trenton Tribune!
