Dear Nora, I did not SELL "New Netherland Connections" to anyone. It was always a labor of love, and the reasonable subscription price just covered the costs of supplies and principally postage over the years. When I began in 1996 the cost to mail a 28-page issue was 75 cents. By 2010 the postage cost for each issue was $1.22. I very much appreciate NEHGS's request to make the whole body of work available in perpetuity electronically. In addition, I had a policy of giving anyone a free issue to see what the publication was like. I supplied free subscriptions over the years to 50 societies and libraries (where they still may be consulted). Anyone can ask the Allen County Public Library in Indiana for a xerox copy of any article for a very modest fee. As most of you know, subtantial, well-documented articles were published in NNC over the years. No author received any payment for his/her work. As a group, we genealogists are generous, sharing folks. Dorothy >The problem may be that she sold the rights for the NNC to the society.

Dorothy--Thanks again in so many ways for NNC! All--The Family History Library in Salt Lake City has begun filming NNC and issues through 2003 are already available through your local Family History Center.
