Phil, The book is breifly described on my webpage: <http://www.hal-pc.org/~wmewrght/index.html#genes> I don't have any more copies of the book for sale. I will burn a CD-ROM with the text of the book in several formats. On my website, I also list the libraries that have copies. My book, "Ancestors and Descendants of William Browning Greene and Mary Hoxsie Lewis with Allied Families," includes 42 chapters. Each chapter is devoted to an immigrant and some of his descendants. The families all lived in Rhode Island and inter-married at one time or another. The book contains an extensive genealogy of the PERRYs and a large number of descendants of the CROSS, GREENE, KENYON, LEWIS, and SEGAR families. Other families in the book include BABCOCK, BROWNING, HAZARD, HOXSIE, and RATHBUN. The book is 778 pages long including an every name index. For information on buying the CD-ROM, send me an email off-list. When you do, I suggest you tell me how you are related to the above families. I can then tell you if the book contains information that I think would be helpful to you. If you have specific questions, I may be able to answer them if the answers are not too complicated.
