A Man Publishes 3000 Year Family History Book
A New York citizen has quietly issued a self funded genealogy book tracing his family back 3000 years. He claims descent from the earliest bearer of the name, a fighting man in Alfred the Great era in England. The work pleases several genealogists who note gaps in the lineage. The author notes his impoverished sire was unaware of the lineage.
