FIRST BOOK UPDATES
I recently received an email from Dr. James R. Murphy, M.D.! It said in part:
Hi Larry: You have done a great job encouraging the Morphew family history.
Please keep the effort going. Hopefully, your work will help preserve our
family heritage and encourage more amateur family sleuths and writers.
I recently retired, am age 62
and in good health. Had to get back into family history with so many
accumulated notes and additions that came in over the years (many in
unrelated lines) and have begun to put it on my computer in small family
packets, so that additions and corrections could be easily made. Somewhere
down the line a fully revised 2nd edition will be put on some website. What
is really needed, and something I cannot do, is for someone to bring out a
new improved Morphew genealogy book, which covers (those of us in) the U.S. and that gang
in Canada. Arlie Morphew would want that. Perhaps the use of subeditors
(specialists) for such a book could help take off some of the work load from
the primary writer.
Sincerely,
"Murph" (James R. Murphy, M.D.)
