Freshour, Sidney. Wagons to Soquel. Glenhaven Press, Modesto, CA, 1995. A well-researched and well-documented history of the Freshour clan's emigration from Missouri to California in the 1850s. In addition to extensive genealogical information on the various Freshour families that participated in the emigration, Sidney also paints a vivid portrait of the conditions they faced during their journeys, and once in California. If you are researching the Freshours, then I highly recommend purchasing a copy of this book, and would be happy to provide Sidney's address to anyone interested.

Liebmann, A. G. Skiles-McAfee-Liebmann Memorial Published 1929. This is an interesting but somewhat chaotically-organized history of the Skiles, Liebmann and McAfee families. A. G. Liebmann claims that his maternal grandfather, John McAfee, was the son of George McAfee and Susan Curry. Robert B. McAfee, in his "Life and Times. . . " believed that John had moved to South Carolina, and died an "old bachelor," never to be heard from again by his family. While the author does present a lot of primary evidence (especially military service records) for his Skiles and Liebmann ancestors, he presents no primary evidence that his grandfather was indeed George and Susan's son. It will be interesting to see whether further research can resolve this issue. (I own a reprint of this book, and will happy to do limited lookups from it.)
