To JTL: Try these old books on Google. There are many more there. I believe I have posted some of these before. But be cautious. One book may contradict the next. I know I have seen Rev. David Rice's father listed as three different names. There are probably many volumes of the Presbyterian Magazine online, and William Foote's work has been quoted millions of times by genealogists. But there are some errors. Great reading, though.
