I should have proof copies of BYFIELD - Four Generations in the next week. If everything looks good I hope to publish in early September. The version of the book that is available here on the site is not quite the final version. I'll update it once I'm sure everything is done. I'll also put a link to the Amazon book page once it's up on Amazon's site.
I am working on a book to be called "BYFIELDS - Four Generations: The Descendants of Abraham Byfield and Patience Corbin". This book will cover all the family lines descending from Abraham and Patience. This blog is where I will post random thoughts that fall out of my head as I work my way through compiling all the information. It's also where you can find copies of the work in progress and leave comments for me.
Looking for Byfields
If you are part of this Byfield family please send me a note at byfieldbook@gmail.com. Let me know how you fit in the tree!

The final edits are almost all done. I've posted the latest PDF file of the book online here. Feel free to download it and take a look. It's about 15 megabytes so it will take a minute or two to download. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
I'm thinking that the book should be ready for publishing in the next couple of weeks. I still need to do some final reviewing and editing. Also, I'm still tweaking on the cover.

Progress on BYFIELD - Four Generations
I'm pretty much finished adding to the book for now. I keep getting sidetracked -- chasing down leads on family members that are fourth and fifth generation. I've decided that I need to stop poking around over old ground and get the book ready to publish.
I think I will end up publishing it through Amazon. That will make it easy for anyone to find and they will make sure it is on the list for libraries to find. It looks like it will be able to be priced around ten to fifteen dollars. That should make it cheaper than if you tried to print the whole thing from the PDF files available on this site.
I will be updating the PDF versions available here (free download) once I am done with the final edits. This version of the book will contain the first four generations of Byfields descended from Abraham and Patience.
So far the editing is going pretty smoothly. I would like to be able to get this done in the next couple of months.
