Regarding background info on William V.H. Barker, relevant to genealogy -
Hello again,
Further to my previous posting on the "Families of Montgomeryshire",
following is a bit of background information about the author and the
publication:
The author is an LDS librarian at the New Haven Stake Branch library in
Woodbridge CT and wrote a book on "Early Families of Herkimer County, New
York", published in 1986 by Genealogical Publishing Co. of Baltimore. The
author has been doing Montgomeryshire genealogy almost full time since 1993
and is a member of the Montgomeryshire Genealogical Society. A draft copy
of his book "Families of Montgomeryshire, Wales 1675-1825" (copyright
1996-8) has been available for public viewing at the manuscripts room of
the National Library of Wales in Aberystwyth since January 1996. Updates
are sent to Aberystwyth from time to time, but that draft is not kept as
current as the CD version being offered for sale in March 1998.
Best regards,
Julie Preston
