The Burneys From North Carolina
by Pauline Burney Brightman
(how to order book, and more info)

Pauline was my client for many years before her death, and I was priveledged to call her my friend. She knew she was sick and getting her book out was what kept her alive - she died just a few months after it was shipped. After shipping the book, she shipped all of her source material to Mr Kerry Armstrong whose email is kmarmstrong@charter.net.

She also made sure that I would get the gedcom of her data into Ancestral File. The Ancestral File has been messed up some, as this John Burney is shown with Pauline as the submitter, but they have the wrong date of birth - it should be circa 1710.
John BURNEY (AFN:FDB6-2G)
Born: Abt 1769 Place: Of, , North Carolina
Died: May 1761 Place: , Orange, North Carolina
Married: Bef 1738 Place: , Beaufort, North Carolina
Elizabeth CHEEK (AFN:FDB6-3M) Pedigree
Born: Abt 1721 Place: Of, , Spottsylvania, Virginia
Died: Aft 1765 Place: , , Ga
Married: Bef 1738 Place: , Beaufort, North Carolina

The submitted gedcom also had his son as "John (Daniel in Sketch) Burney", not Daniel John BURNEY JR. as the Ancestral File has it. There are no restrictions on the gedcom as this is what Pauline wanted. She gave me the copyright for the book itself only. The original gedcom is available here (zipped) - it's an older gedcom, but as of 2004, should still import into most genealogy programs.

The book itself is available a pre-paid order basis. It is a hardbound book that I have printed as they are ordered. (see below for PDF option) It may be as long as a month after receiving your check before you receive it. I will email you again when it actually goes in the mail so that know when to start watching for it. The price for the book is US$50 plus $5 shipping (in US) or $10 shipping for other countries. If it goes to California, then add $4.13 tax.

No anticipated price change for the book, for the next couple years (from 2006). However, check back regarding postage.

PayPal is accepted at kathryn@bassett.net (but not credit card payments as it's a personal account). Checks from other countries are not accepted, it would need to be either PayPal or a postal money order.

If sending a check or money order, make the check out to Misc Enterprises and mail to:

PDF option - If you don't want/need the hardbound book, I have also made it available in a PDF file, though it's 78 megabytes. It's available via a passworded directory. If this is of interest to you, that is available only via PayPal, for a flat $10. On receipt, I'll email the username and password.

After you log in to your PayPal account, click on Send Money, then the Pay Anyone tab. Put kathryn@bassett.net into the "to" box, $10.00 into the "amount" box, and check the Service/Other button. I can't take credit cards, by the way, even via PayPal, as it's a personal PayPal, not a business PayPal.
