A History of the Communities of Mack and New Liberty

by Homer C. Likes and Phyllis C. Maluy Likes

"All of the original pioneers are gone, as are many of their descendants. We are happy to bring their lives to light through this history so generations present and future can enjoy and learn from their great examples. In these pages we will attempt to tell at least part of the story of the people of the communities of Mack and New Liberty. 

We will share some of their hopes, their triumphs, their heartbreaks — to help you appreciate and know them better.

It is our sincere hope that whoever reads this history will enjoy it at least half as much as we have enjoyed compiling it. We have come to better know and appreciate the many people among whom we lived and with whom we associated for so many years. That alone is considerable reward for the time, effort, and expense we have invested in this work." 

~Homer & Phyllis

While authors Homer and Phyllis Maluy Likes, have since passed, we at Likes Publishing have chosen to continue their work by republishing this book. 

They were the children of pioneer families who were among the first settlers in the New Liberty community.
