If you read these 17th Century court records you will see neighbors generally had no problem…"

I did read a little excerpt from the book when I visited the Ne-Do-Ba site. Is this book still in print and available? I would love to purchase a copy if you could tell me where I can get one. Its very possible my father-in-law, Bellmont House, was named after Louis, but he has never made reference to it, so he may be unaware that it's an old family name. I am very curious about that side of the family as I have been unable to gather much information online. Look forward to hearing from you.
Regards,
Troy
