    1. Stillwell books and archive info
    2. This may be of interest to you. DO NOT ASK ME FOR INFO AS DAVID HAS IT, NOT I. HE SENT THIS TO THE NJ LIST, WHICH I HAVE ADVISED YOU ALL TO CHECK OFTEN FOR WILLS ETC. Linda _dtourison@vcn.com_ (mailto:dtourison@vcn.com) DAVID TOURISON Howdy folks - recent queries on 'where the Stillwell Books can be found', or, 'are they online', has prompted me to answer this way. I own the Stillwell books. Mine are ex-libris, and so I suspect one might find them in libraries, or privately owned. I do not know if they are online or not, but as many of you know, when I find books on NJ history, or of NJ genealogical relevance, I usually advertise that I have them, and if folks want me to research them, am only too glad to help where I can. Other recent additions to my collection include: NJ Archives, Marriage Records, 1665-1800 NJ Archives, Patents & Deeds, 1664-1703 History of Baptists in New Jersey, by Griffiths (ex-libris) Northwestern NJ - A History of Somerset, Morris, Hunterdon, Warren and Sussex Counties, Volumes I thru V, by A Van Doren Honeyman (published in 1927; the last three volumes are biographies of prominent families of the period.} I'm in the process of transcribing some of the contents of Volumes I & II of the Stillwell books, as well as transcribing Volume XXIII of the NJ Archives series, covering 1670-1730, and doing pro-bono research for 3 other clients, so my time is strictly limited. This is not meant to dissuade any of you in asking for some of my research time - am ALWAYS too glad to help where I can, but understand that due to the high demand for this gratis service, there is, naturally, a delay of sorts, in my getting back to you after your queries. I only have Wednesdays and Sundays to perform the research, which doesn't really allow much time at all when requests are running high. Sooooo, if anyone out there wants me to do some research in the Stillwell books, or any others, do not hesitate to ask, just expect some delay. And too, for my own records log, when you do ask for help, kindly give me a first and last name, and a city and state or country. Some of you have similar names and with so many requests, that more detailed information is a real help. David Tourison Sheridan WY
