MILLENNIUM LAW A new CD-ROM disk has been published on the LAW family genealogy. It contains the collected works of three LAW family genealogists (Merril Law, Fran Roberts, and H.A. Tony Wood), all of whom did their research over the last ten to twenty years.  The LAW family, with roots in Virginia, Kentucky, Indiana, and Kansas, is traced to about 1690. This is one of the most complete sets of LAW family genealogy, stories, and photographs collected to date, especially since the disk includes the text of two notable books: 1. The Laws of the Land  by Merril Law (now out of print) 2. Our Laws Across America by Fran Law Roberts (recently published) The contents of this disk are as follows: I. The newly revised electronic version of Laws of the Land originally published by Merril Law in 1995 ( Note: This text is out of print. ) II.  Our Laws Across America edited by Fran Roberts -2000 ( Note: This new publication is available directly from Fran Roberts in hardbound copy by contacting her at robertsfl@brandons.net ) III.
