I made a copy of the two pages re: my line. But, I found the dates and times were not always correct. It was a great help in following my line, but you still have to verify what is in the book! For example, my 4th gr-grandfather Joseph Bradford, son of Joshua is said to have died in Quincy, ILL. That in fact was not true. I found his probate in Friendship, ME along with his widow. There is no record of a Joseph Bradford in Quincy, ILL. Don't accept the genealogy written in books as fact!
