Time period: beginning of mankind to 1924. A soft-bound book: Crossing Paths - Ancestry through History, author Susan Eileen Weeks, (copyrighted 2022) 452 pages ISBN 979-8-988-7971-0-6 (Available in .ePub version listed separately)
This well written and documented book spans eons and is more than just a genealogy or history book.
The reader travels from the beginning of time following the paths of mankind, learns how people traversed oceans, arrived from foreign countries, and learned different languages; so that one day they would live in a free country.
The author used historical events to illustrate the ancestors' living conditions. Drama, romance, and discovery along with surprising twists and turns on this ancestral path to reveal how they crossed paths.
Some families covered are Weeks, Reynolds, Dever, van Benschoten, McDaniels, Totten, Adams, Taft, Bingham, Spafford, Eliot, Baker, Bruis, Campbell, Knapp, Collins, Eliot, Hilliyer, Montgomerie, Mullins, Alden, Winthrop, Hudson, Gardner, and many more. Any omission of a person or place is purely accidental.
The next book in the Path series: Southern Paths Along the Appalachia Trail, will introduce the reader to the people who settled in the Cumberland region, now North Carolina, Kentucky, and Tennessee. Discover how the Revolutionary, Seminole and Civil wars impacted their lives. By following these pioneers' paths from Maine and Virginia south to Florida, the reader will learn how their lives opened new southern frontiers and provided opportunities for growth in agriculture and transportation. Their actions impacted the economic growth of the Florida we know today. This fun, fact-filled book has a projected publishing date of late 2025.
Another book in the Path series, Changing Paths - settling in rural New York State in the 1800s, has been documented and written using letters and diaries of community members and ancestors of the author.
