For all Haring researchers, and those interested in the social and historical envronments of southern New York, northern New Jersey, and New York City up to 1800: Firth Haring Fabend wrote: <<Hello! A friend sent me your reply to "Wayne" regarding Elbert Herring/Haring. Thank you for passing on the information from my PhD dissertation ("The Yeoman Ideal . . . . " 1988). I thought you might like to know and pass on to your list the fact that this dissertation was published. The pub information is: Firth Haring Fabend, A Dutch Family in the Middle Colonies: 1660-1800 (New Brunswick, NJ, Rutgers University Press, 1991). It is a history of the Haring Family over its first five generations in America, and it will be of interest to those who like to have their genealogy set into the social and historical context. It won the New York State Historical Association Annual Book Prize and the annual Hendricks Prize of the New Netherland Project in Albany, NY. It is available in many university libraries. Rutgers is supposed to be reissuing it as a paperback. (Their website for information is rutgerspress.rutgers.edu) Rutgers is also publishing my new book, Zion on the Hudson: Dutch New York and New Jersey in the Age of Revivals. Thanks again! Firth Haring Fabend>> It's a great book -- I can personally vouch for that. I can't wait for her new one. Pat Pat Wardell in Englewood, FL wardell@exit33.com
