I don't know how available some of my books are to others on the list. I haven't so much as checked a local library to look for books authored by Pages, but I do possess a few old books, written around the turn of the last century, by or about the Pages of North Carolina and Virginia. I would be happy to share excerpts with any of the Pages and Nelsons who don't have access to these. I don't believe I am of this lineage, but they still made very interesting reading for me. For those of you who are related, these books allow you to "get inside the head' of people with your genetic program, and compare their approach to life to your own. Life and Letters of Walter Page by Burton J. Hendrick, 1924,(Four Volumes), published by Doubleday, Page & Co. (Walter was the original cofounder of the Doubleday firm.) Lots of biographical information. Walter's father, Allison Francis "Frank": Page founded Cary and Aberdeen, North Carolina, and built hotels in Raleigh. Walter's grandfather, Anderson, had a 1,000 acre plantation 12 miles north of Raleigh and sold his crops in Petersburg. Thomas Nelson Page by Rosewall Page, an autobiography of Thomas by his brother, Rosewall, written about 1920 In Ole Virginia by Thomas Nelson Page, written about 1890. On Newfound River by Thomas Nelson Page, written in 1891, published by Scribner's I suppose the lineage of Thomas Nelson Page is pretty well documented, but anyone who wants to gain insight to Thomas's Virginia plantation life would benefit from these books. Both men have lots of other published books and articles, and I plan to collect. To anyone who believes they may be related to the Pages who lived in Wake County, North Carolina from 1800 on, after migrating from Virginia, you may be interested to know the book "The Southerner" was written around 1890 by Walter Page under the pen name of Nicholas Worth, and the boyhood part, in particular, is pretty much autobiographical, with names changed. A movie was made from it in the middle of the twentieth century. It was on TV recently, but I failed to watch or tape it. I haven't read the book either, but I understand it describes the hardships of trying to rebuild farms, communities, and lives after the Civil War. Just let me know if you want to know more about any of these books or if you would like me to look for any names of particular information. Ron Page Page Concepts,Inc. 888-821-1430 www.pagec.com
