EWGS past president Shirley Penna-Oakes has been gone for a couple of years now. Her good friend, Mary, to whom Shirley gave all her genealogy and her genealogy books, is now wanting to re-home some family histories that Shirley collected. The titles are listed below; I have these books and would be willing to send them to you for postage. First to ask gets them….. 🙂

*** I also have a big box of The New England Historic Genealogical Society’s publication, The Register. Shirley apparently purchased these early volumes…………. I will not send them (way, way too heavy) but they are up for grabs.
I’d like the Family of John Page book. How can you contact me
If no one wants some of the books or/& magazines, I suggest contacting a genealogical library.
Fiske Genealogical Library in Seattle accepted many of both kinds from me. If they receive something they already have, they trade materials with other libraries. They are one of the hundreds of libraries that are part of WorldCat.org.
Thst is a very nice thing Shirley did & and now Mary is doing!!
Thank you Donna, for helping!! 😉
