I would be glad to. I got it from some descendants of the English family, so I feel like I must ask their permission to put anything on the Web. I'll ask them. I have started making an electronic copy of it. I have the first two pages, will do one or two pages at a time. Those who have copied it before have tried to make copies that are faithful to the original, errors and all. I think the value of the document is increased by keeping it in its original state, so I am trying to make my reproduction preserve all blemishes. Unfortunately, I find myself correcting errors that I want to keep just out of habit, so it will take me a little longer to reproduce it.
I appreciate you asking for a copy, I do believe it has major historical value for genealogists of this family. It gives dates, times, places, purchaces, sales, references to newspaper articles and historic events (like a storm and an eclipse). For the right researcher, it is a gold mine.
