Hi Lorena,

Please put me on the list of those interested in obtaining your republication of your dad's book. My mother, Dorothy Creel Hendricks Stetler died last year at 88. Her mother, Annie Irene Yates Hendricks was born in Adair Co., KY. She was descended from the Creels, Lightfoots, Nelsons and Taylors who moved from VA to KY. About 40 or more years ago, when my grandparents and some of their siblings were still living, my mom pumped them for info and put together 4 very simple family trees. Sometimes the spelling was wrong or the dates were off, but it was more than enough. It was invaluable as it gave me names and places to look when I became interested in genealogy about 10 years ago. Research of historical records has proved essentially everything she captured was correct! Based upon this foundation, I have been able to prove my Creel/Yates line back to Jamestowne. These and other related lines are very rich in early American heritage. So your father has left an invaluable legacy and I commend you for perpetuating and sharing it! I can't wait! Karen
