Don't waste time and money completing genealogy research others have done!
In my personal genealogy research, I often spent days in courthouses, libraries and cemeteries as well as considerable expense copying records only to discover that I was following in another researcher's footsteps. Sometimes I even discovered I was following the wrong path. I could have saved myself time, effort and a lot of money if I'd only known of this research earlier.
While not an authoritative book on Henry Gay, since this is not my family line, this book includes all research I have discovered on Henry Gay's descendants in the hopes of assisting other researchers and providing some leads to beginning genealogists.
