The author now presents the most complete, documented and factual account of the Abney Family from its noble roots in 11^th century Bretagne, France; to William the Conqueror’s England; through Lincolnshire, Derbyshire, and Leicestershire; to the British Colony of Virginia; through South Carolina and points west and north with over 200 photographs, documents and illustrations! Through a series of unfortunate events, publication of this book was delayed for many years, but is the better for it. This book corrects myriad errors published and believed by previous and current researchers and authors. It is Mr. Abney’s desire that this book (Vol. I of the Abney Family History Series) will begin a series of books correctly documenting the Noble Abney Family in many volumes.The author now presents the most complete, documented and factual account of the Abney Family from its noble roots in 11^th century Bretagne, France; to William the Conqueror’s England; through Lincolnshire, Derbyshire, and Leicestershire; to the British Colony of Virginia; through South Carolina and points west and north with over 200 photographs, documents and illustrations!

Industry Reviews

R. R., you have written a phenomenal book! I have completely enjoyed reading it. There are dozens of post it notes where I want to return and read again. I send you my heart-felt sympathy of what you lost during Katrina, such a tragedy, but I admire you tremendously for how you express your coping with such reality, like Job? And I want to thank you very very much for teaching me a new word! Prosopography....in my 40 years of doing genealogy and over 60 years of being a constant reader, I never came across that word. And now I have used it recently in an article I submitted for my historical society's newsletter. I have request the society buy your book for the county collection and I'm sure they will as there must not be anything like it available. I was most intrigued by what you presented on the very earliest Aubigne, more in one reference than I've collected over time. Your book is in a word "definitive"...T.A.A., Santa Clara, CA
Proudly holding my copy [of the Abney Book]. Proud of R.R. and his work and determination to publish. I too am thankful R.R. made this great addition to our Abney family history happen. Not only happen but happen in glorious fashion. We are indebted…R.H.A., Mooresville, NC

Very comprehensive and detailed genealogy of the Abney family in America. Really cool! Your book is amazing! Congratulations on your publication. It must have taken you an incredibly long time to compile all of that information. Thanks so much for your hard work…M.R., Lakeland, FL
