Hi folks, Recently Bob McQueen from New Zealand sent me a copy of a booklet he just published regarding his ancestors' trip from Islay to Nottawasaga Township in 1833. It's the best accounting of the actual journey that I've read. I asked him if I could pass this on to the Islay group, in case some of you wanted to order a copy. Here is his response: " Yes, it would be great to have you post something on the Islay list. And I could probably arrange sales of physical book. However, it would be much easier to have you point interested people at a free copy of the book, available for downloading at http://www.mngt.waikato.ac.nz/bmcqueen/WEBDOCS/mcqueen/index.htm I'd rather get the free electronic file out there and distributed (and forwarded) to as many as are interested rather than trying to make any money to offset printing costs of the physical copy. Bob" So here you go! A freeby worth a million. I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I did. Toni
