L.D.G.S. PUBLICATIONS Publication Author Price Postage and Handling The Fooks Family Book Herbert C. Fooks $45.00 $4.25 Reprinted by the Lower Delmarva Genealogical Society in 2001 with an index. The Fooks Family Book Index compiled by the LDGS $17.00 $3.25 This is a separate index only, useful to those who already own the ORIGINAL Fooks Book (which has no index). Graveyards and Gravestones of Wicomico John E. Jacob, Jr. $15.00 $3.25 Wicomico County was formed in 1867 from parts of Somerset and Worcester Counties. The area has hundreds of small family and church graveyards, many of which are now in an appalling state of disrepair. Mr. Jacob's book ensures that the record of these peoples' graves will not disappear. The earliest gravestone in Wicomico County is from 1739, and the book lists graves with death dates up to December 31, 1900. A Somerset Sampler: Families of Old Somerset County, Maryland, 1700-1776 Pauline M. Batchelder $35.00 $4.00 This is a collection of information on families of Old Somerset County, Maryland, modeled on and supplementing the genealogical notes that Clayton Torrence included in his 1935 history, Old Somerset on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Torrence's book generally covered up to about 1700. This book picks up there and traces the families to the generation of children, the oldest of whom were born by 1776.
