Hello Everyone,
Recently I requested info on whether a book was in the works on the above
areas, that would include information on the inhabitants of the area only.
I have recently found out that the authors that have previous written books
on the area have no plans to create such a book.

I am interested in "Compiling" a book on the subject of the individuals and
families that resided in the above areas, between the early 1800's and the
early 1920's.

What I am proposing is a non-profit book, compiled by myself, but written by
the individuals who wish to contribute to the project.

Any funds above and beyond the cost of publishing would be donated to an
organization decided upon by the contributors.

I am willing to handle, the compilation, editing and indexing of the book. I
would also appreciate anyone who would be willing to take on this project
with me.
I am hoping that pre-orders will initially cover the cost of publishing, but
am willing to find a way to make this happen, if it doesn't. The book will
not be hardcover.

To start off we would need individuals to submit their family lines from the
area. I would like to see the information written in story form but if you
are not a writer as long as you send me notes, I can do this for you.

I would also like to see contact information listed in the back of the book,
so that individuals interested in the same lines, can contact the author.
Not sure how to do this as people move, but perhaps we can find a way.

Also would like to see sources listed whenever possible.

Please send all questions comments etc. off list. To .

Sincerely,
Stephanie
