Hi List: About a year ago, I attempted to share family data with others interested in the Overstreet surname, by printing and distributing "Overstreets in Virginia - 300 Years of Bedford County". The response was more active than anticipated. About six thousand family members in the data base then has grown - - grown now to over ten thousand. And many of the genealogical facts have been expanded and/or corrected, I prefer to call it enriched. This has only occurred because so many of you have shared with me your efforts and knowledge. Now I am willing to share with interested folks a sequel. One of the Bedford family lines has increased the reported names over three fold, along with significantly enriching detail. This family, the descendants of Thomas 'the hatter' Overstreet & Judith Walker is the subject of the current new offering. This is an expansion to a portion of the Bedford workbook and I am delighted to share it before the end of this year. This workbook of over one hundred pages presents the family in the Register format and the Outline format. The plastic comb binding and every name index will be features you will find helpful for many years. Please be forewarned! This data base is only able to grow and help others in response to the information that everyone shares. You will be expected to let me, or our friends at Rootsweb, know what corrections are needed and the additions you know about and would like added into the data base. Email orders are accepted and only email orders will be acknowledged. A $5 prepublication discount will be allowed for all orders received before copy goes 'to the printer', about December 10th. Please mark prepublication discount on Miscellaneous line. Orders will be shipped Priority Mail after your check has been received, thank you. I expect the orders to be ready for shipment on 15th of December.

The response to my effort to print and distribute "Overstreets in Virginia - 300 Years of Bedford County" in 1999 has been met with some success and recently several questions about when "is the update workbook going to be available?" The Thomas 'the hatter' Overstreet & Judith Walker family has had more information exchanged than any of the other Bedford family lines. The Bedford data base has grown from 6,000 to over 10,000 names. This growth has only happened because of so many wonderful and helpful folks like you. With this expression of interest, I am making available a workbook with Thomas 'the hatter' Overstreet and Judith Walker as the eldest ancestor. Distribution will began by the early part of December 2000, so orders will be shipped in time for holiday sharing with others. Please contact me if you might have any interest in considering acquiring this useful resource of Overstreet family history. A prepublication discount will be allowed for all orders placed before copy goes 'to the printer', about December 4th. Email orders are accepted and all email orders will be acknowledged. Orders will be shipped Priority Mail after your check has been received, thank you. I expect the orders to be ready for shipment on the 12th of December. Please be fore warned!
