My book is going well. It is entitled "Patriot on the Kennebec: Major Reuben Colburn and the March to Quebec 1775: His life and Times." Currently it is under consideration at Down East Books in Camden, Maine. A complete genealogy of the founders of Pittston, Me is included in the appendix. The genealogy of the descendants of Edward Colburn is availablr on CD from this webstore.
