I need to convince the publisher that there will be some demand for it beyond the immediate relatives of the focus family. This will be the first really serious account of the family to appear in print. Tentatively titled Some American Ancestry of Herbert Lee Mills and Bessie Delano Kendall, the book will be published, probably in early 2001, by the Newbury Street Press. About half of this book, probably about 100 pages or so, is a detailed, thoroughly documented account of a line from George Mills of Jamaica, Long Island, New York. The line runs from George through his son Jonathan, Samuel and his son Samuel of Elizabethtown, N.J., Samuel of Morristown, N.J., Edward, Jabez, Charles Lewis Mills who went to Mass., Lyman Allan and Herbert Lee Mills of Middletown, Conn. This book contains more detail on George, his son Jonathan and his sons than has ever been collected anywhere. (Well, it doesn't go into great detail about Timothy of Smithtown, Long Island, but it does have some information on him.) It also challenges assumptions made about the early generations of this family in various collections and databases.
