Book - Maxey's of Virginia on CD
I'm pleased to announce the availability of a CD version of my last book:
The Maxeys of Virginia: A Genealogical History of the Descendants of Edward and Susannah Maxey, Third Edition, 1,085 pp., index, maps, Baltimore, Maryland: Gateway Press, Inc., 2000.
The book has been out of print for the last two years and no reprints or future editions will be available.
H. David Maxey, who helped me with the Third Edition, has generously put the book on CD to make it available again to the family.Dave will also be receiving orders and making and mailing copies of the CD, which I am no longer able to undertake.The following is his description of the CD.
My best to you all,
Edythe Maxey Clark
