However, in my volumes (Genealogical Publishing Company rpt. 1981) I note that they acknowledge permission from the original publisher, the New Haven Colony Historical Society. I know that a lot of people pick things up and move them over in part or whole to their websites - often without permission. This has happened to me and had I known about it prior to being placed 'out there' I would have said no for several reasons. So my question is only, since this is copyright material, do you have permission? I'd make that request from GPC before I publish -- (putting it on the Internet IS publishing and carries the same rights and responsibilities as the 'hard copy' published word) I believe we are beginning to see some enforcement of the copyright laws when we find others using our material without clear and specific approval so it follows that we should seek such permission to 'copy' and use. And when one receives such, be sure it is noted on the website that permission has been given and by what entity and date. You will note that these volumes were made up from families originally published in the New Haven Genealogical Magazine ..... I'd certainly try to access these to see if there are any clues; Jacobus may or may not have reprinted the articles verbatim. If you read the "Additions and Corrections" in the volumes you will see that Jacobs plainly stated that "It is regrettable that there are any errors to need correction. ... " New material and corrections, with references, from current research would no doubt be welcomed and well received by descendants of those treated in these volumes -- as well as by the New Haven Colony society. I'd also try contact the Society to see if they have any original notes from the magazine publications, or by Jacobus as he compiled his volumes, in their vertical files. And they might have Jacobus' family information and can tell you specifically about his Lines family. http://members.aol.com/dtrofatter/nhcol.htm I've not tired to discover if he wrote a family history on his family --- might ask about that as well.
