The Dunedin Family History Group is publishing a book on the lives of English born parents. The criteria is that the articles must involve any parents born in England who immigrated and died in New Zealand. The book is to be published in September 2014. This is the last in the series of books - Scottish Mother, Scottish Father and Irish Parents. We are able to accept submissions in any format - i.e. hardcopy, via an email attachment or on CD. Submissions can be in almost any Windows compatible format. The article can be as small or as large as needed but for space we have set the limit as 20,000 words (on average 750 words are usually 1 page so this allows a maximum of 26 pages). Graphics, photographs and maps can be in addition to the 20,000 words. Photographs, graphics and maps help enhance an article. All pictures should be 300 dpi (dots per inch) and high quality. The published size is usually about a column width (83mm) by the relative height of the picture which also needs a caption. All photographs must be sourced i.e. JOE BLOGGS PERSONAL COLLECTION or PRINTED WITH PERMISSION OF THE HOCKEN LIBRARY COLLECTIONS, DUNEDIN. All articles must be received by the 31 July 2014. Entries which arrive after this date may not be able to be included in the final publication. All articles accepted for submission provides the author with a 10% discount on the final cost of purchasing the book. Any questions please contact dfhg@xtra.co.nz or write to 28 Milburn Street, Dunedin. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Heather and Kevin Bray 28 Milburn Street Corstorphine Dunedin 9012 New Zealand kandh.bray@xtra.co.nz ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Heather I'm assuming that these criteria mean they must be your own parents, not, for instance, your mother's parents?
