She needs a count by Jan 15 to know how many copies to order. Here is her synopsis if you want to order: "Born into a very large Smelley family, I have read gravestones for 70 years to group and separate 1400 descendants for ten generations of William Smelley. Ancestor lines are suggested for Smelley families in VA, NC, SC, and AL. Comprehensive and different! There are 100 illustrations and vignettes: maps, charts, tax and census records, war records, documenting originals, interviews, newspapers, 1750 Smellie house, 1800 Smelley house, and family pictures. The book is 8.5"x11" hardback of 318 pages. Prepublication prices are $55 plus $6 shipping for any number of books. Respond by 15 January 2014 to reserve a copy. I need a count. Expect a March delivery." Contact Joyce direct at odombk13@yahoo.com Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
