I am just letting you know that I heard from a judge's critique of my book that it lacked emotion and that the character did not seem real.  I thanked the judge, I edited the prologue and first three chapters.  For those who have been reading my book regularly, please read the first 4 chapters and let me know if it is better than before.  I appreciate all feedback and work to improve this book each time.  It must be the perfectionist in me. LOL.

I will be editing and fixing more chapters in my book.  I am uploading it onto Microsoft Word and fixing all errors, and then reposting it  with corrections.  The stories do not change much.  I also changed chapter numbers.  I decided to make the father and son a prologue because it is a background chapter leading up to the main story which is when John gets on the boat and travels to the colonies, gets married and has a family.  I also added stories and the love stories of his children because they are a family.  Each surviving child gets married at some point in John's life.  This book mentions real people and facts that happened to the characters.  I have been researching each child and formulating stories based on what I have .  The next section will deal with Benjamin and Jacob.   I am so excited.  FYI, My husband is from Jacob's line, so he will have a lot of book time along with his children.  I am planning a set of sequels dealing with the grand children  and beyond.
