I take my pen in Hand by Graeme F. Somerville
Four decades of letters between three generations of the Webb family reveal the challenges, disappointments, hopes and frustrations from the time of the first settler to the better settled later generations.

Noah, the patriach of the family, migrated from Westchester, Cumberland County, Nova Scotia to New Jerusalem, New Brunswick in the 1820s.

I take my pen in hand is a story told in plain unvarnished words through twelve dozen letters, written at Queens County and York County New Brunswick kitchen tables in the 19th century.

I take my pen in hand is fully indexed and thus makes it easy to find any particular family that is mentioned (and there are scads of them) or any association, place or company. Ten appendices include seven that are devoted to genealogical tables.

The book is an absolute treasure of information and is fascinating reading. It is available from

Graeme F. Somerville, 84 Beach Crescent, Saint John, NB, Canada, E2K 2E4. Telephone (506) 632-2020. The cost is twenty-five dollars plus three dollars shipping.
