Dear DeVane "Cousin",
You may or may not be aware that I have been doing genealogical work on the DeVanes, mainly Florida DeVanes, for several years. I have been particularly updating the recent generations since the published works of the early 1960s, done to organize the John DeVane chapter of SAR, as well as adding to the earlier descendants.
Several Devane relatives are encouraging me to write a book with these updates. We have decided that in addition to genealogical records, we would also like to include stories of various family members, to give some life and personality to the book. (All the DeVanes I know how been quite "colorful" characters.)
So - I am looking for some contributing writers to help with this. At this point I am mainly focusing on the descendants of the three sons of Benjamin Franklin DeVane, b 1835: George Albert, Edward Jasper, and Franklin Elbert. This is my direct line. I will also probably include descendants of Samuel Rowan, since many of them are in the central & south Florida area. I will include one or more chapters on other DeVane lineage, depending on space and how much info I have.
If you are interested in helping with this project please contact me and I can tell you what additional info I need from your branch of DeVanes. It should be a fun and meaninful project if we have contributors from the various DeVanes branches. I hope you will contribute.
