Words cannot express how thrilled I am to announce that my book, “The Estes Family,” is now available.
Even labors of love can get to a point where they need to be finished. I started work on this version of the book on 30 August 2016 and have spent nearly every hour of personal genealogy time since then working on it. My followers may have noticed that I haven’t been saying “happy birthday” to many ancestors for the last few months. That’s because I’ve been spending all my time on the Estes family. In all, I’ve logged over 1,700 hours on this project! It is good that client work for my Family Past Expert business has interrupted me and slowed me down. But, it feels really, really, really good to be able to say that the Estes book is done!!!
This book traces our Estes family from our earliest known Estes ancestor, Nicholas Estes, who was born about 1495 in England. His descendants, beginning with our immigrant ancestor, Abraham Estes, lived through all the major events in American history. Detailed biographies are included for twelve generations of ancestors from Nicholas through the family of his 9th great-grandson, Thomas Leland Estes. Thousands of descendants have been identified and are listed.
If you are interested, you can get a copy of the book for yourself by ordering directly from lulu.com. Find links below. At the links you can also see a few sample pages of the book.
