New Book Posted In the Books CollectionWednesday, 05 November 2008 17:17 | Written by Brian
In cleaning out some old files this past weekend, I came across a transcription of a book I did for another project I used to volunteer for. That project has since gone inactive, so I thought it was worth posting here as well. The book is titled (believe it or not) An Account of John Burbeen, who came from Scotland and settled at Woburn Massachusetts, about 1660 and of such of his descendants as have borne the surname of BURBEEN and was published in 1892. You can view the text of this transcription by going to the Books Collection link under Our Projects and clicking on the small pdf icon to the right of the Books Title. As always, if you have any trouble accessing this text, please let me know. Everyone should have access. - Brian Last Updated (Wednesday, 05 November 2008 17:18) |
