Hi, Bob, What's the name of the ongoing series on Dutchess County, NY? I can't think of the author, but I'm sure the Buys family is in the first or second volume. Cool might be in one of the books, but I don't think the author is as far as Kool, the earlier spelling. Perhaps someone can give you a full citation of the author's name, which I don't have handy.
