In 1997 I learned about the book Wagon Ruts West that
was written by Ralph Ray Keeney. I couldn't find a copy of it so I wrote to him and asked
if there was any way to get one & he sent me photocopies of his original manuscript of
the book. It was suggested that I try to obtain permission to serialize the book for
inclusion with the KFG newsletter, so I sent a letter to Mr. Ralph Ray Keeney asking for
permission to do so.
My letter to him.

To: Mr. Ralph R. Keeney,
A couple of years ago I wrote to you and asked about
getting a copy of the book you wrote on the John Keeney Jr. family "Wagon Ruts
West" of which you sent me a photocopy of your manuscript.
I own the Website
keeney.net
and have been putting a monthly newsletter online since December 1998 with the exception
of the months of May & July 1999. This site is a non-profit non-commercial hobby site
pertaining to the genealogies of the various Keeney family lines, about a month ago it was
suggested that I ask you for permission to serialize your book "Wagon Ruts
West" for inclusion in the newsletter. Roscoe C. Keeney is allowing me to post
his Keeney Update back issues on the site so that researchers can have wider access to
that resource.
If this idea of serializing the book is
all right with you I'm willing to include any statement that you
would like to make regarding the use of your book. Of course the
choice of weather I do this or not is entirely yours.
I am including an SASE for your reply.
Thank you for your time.

To fulfill
his requirement for source of material used, the
Acknowledgment
above is included
with each section posted.
Originally the only links for this book
were through the newsletter to
this page from here you just click on the section that is posted that you want to read.
As time progressed an entire section was created for the book.
