Linda,
To which Capwell book are you referring?
Hi all,
I'm so very sorry I cannot give you the name of the Capwell book with
the wrong information. I am a snowbird in Arizona and the book is
back in Wisconsin with my other genealogy sources. However, I
promise faithfully that when I return to Wis. this spring I will tell
this list the name of the book and it's author and what information I
found that was wrong.
I have already purged it from my Capwell information on my computer
so I don't have it listed in my sources anymore. I only bring my
computer with me when I travel.
I do remember that is was a small book, probably a dark red or brown
cover. I have two other books listed in my sources list that I
believe to be accurate:
1. 1907-CAPEWELL AND CAPWELL FAMILIES (SECOND ANNUAL GENEOLOGICAL
AND HERALDIC REPORT), by Clarence L. Capewell, 1907, reprinted by
Higgenson Book Company
2. STEPHEN CAPWELL a.k.a. Stephen Cappell-Capell-Capel-Capple of
Rhode Island and his descendants, through the 5th generation by Lois
J. and Holden B. Capwell First Edition 1994 pages 70 thru 77
These two books conflicted with the third, and I believe inaccurate,
book. Again, I will notify the list of it's name when I return to
Wisconsin.
I would like to add that the suggestions on writing one's genealogy
have been great. This whole discussion had been helpful and
informative.
By the way, I come down through Stephen Capwell, Russell Capwell,
Maria Capwell Hallstead (John Francis Hallstead), Theodore Hallstead,
Donald Hallstead.
Linda
