Here's the book info so you can check for it in your local or state library catalog:

Spine title: Rider Ryder Genealogy
Title page: A Genealogy of the Rider (Ryder) Families
by Freemont Rider
3 volume set copyright 1959

I've seen them at Library of Michigan, New York State Library in Albany, the Onondaga Co Public Library in Syracuse, and I believe at the NEHGS library in Boston. I bought a set about 10 years ago from the Godfrey Memorial Library in Connecticut (Freemont helped or founded that library or something like that).

Your family is in the book, part of the Cape Cod Rider/Ryders. Remember though, that you still have to prove the info because the info the book was just gathered, not proved. Use it as a guidebook to where you have to go to prove the info. By the way, the books have no page numbers. Everyone is listed alpahbetically by surname, first name then birthdate(or approximate) so once you find someone you then look up the associated names. If you can't find an assoicated name try the other spelling Ri instead of Ry and vice a versa, Freemont sometimes slipped up when one generation changed the spelling or the info was found under the other spelling.

Note: the stuff in () are sources. Nellie Rider refers to the manuscripts of Nellie Rider which are in the manuscript collection of the New England Historic Genealogical Society in Boston. I've been thru them they are essentially her notes, hand done family groups sheets etc in a few cloth bound three ring binders. She was a very early researcher in the time before microfilm.)

For some reason there isn't a Howe Fam in the source list, closest is:
