I just received word that Harvey Wolf passed away last Monday. My readers will know him as the guy with the big beard that ran, with his wife Barbara, Wolf’s Head Books<\/a> – and exhibited at the national genealogy conferences around the country. Harvey was one of my favorite people and I always looked forward to our conversations when we would meet. I have purchased many wonderful titles from Harvey and Barbara over the years. I’m really going to miss the guy.<\/p>\n

Barbara says that she will be at the NGS Conference in Salt Lake City later this month. She’s planning to fly out while Michael Theeke will drive the van loaded with their books and pamphlets.<\/p>\n
