Does anyone know whether it has much Broaddus family information, and, if so, which branch? I received some information from Hauk Data Services about their publication, "Descendants of Edward Broadus of Virginia," Fifth Edition. They claim to have information on over 1800 descendants, done in a modified register format. Price: $25.00. I've only seen the book once and didn't have time to examine it at length. Some of us who have been doing Broad(d)us research have more names of descendants than they have, but it might be something some who read this are interested in. The Hauk catalogue lists around 200 titles. Another of interest is the one on descendants of Thomas Gaines, and would assume this might include the several members of the Gaines family who married Broadduses. The address for Hauk Data Services is 1885 Arrowhead Trail, Huntington, IN 46750. They will send a catalogue upon request. Ed Broadus
