The PREEN FAMILY HISTORY STUDY GROUP exists to research the family. It organises an Annual Reunion and is preparing a History of the Preen Family in four volumes. DNA analysis has shown that the Preen Family is divided into three groups, each with a common ancestor in the seventeenth century. Volume One will discuss the early history of the family and then Volumes Two to Four will each cover one of the three groups. This book is Volume Four describing the Bridgnorth Group. The Bridgnorth Group are descended from Frank and Fanny Preen who lived in Mill Street Bridgnorth in the 1640s and the book traces their descendants as they spread throughout the West Midlands and later throughout the world. It ends with the families who appeared in the 1911 census.

In the mid 1800s legal immigrants entered the United States by the hundreds; the illegal slave trade flourished; and Native Americans discovered gold on their own lands. In 1835, President Andrew Jackson signed an order that forcibly removed all Indians from their lands in Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, and the Carolinas; they were to be removed to the western frontier, leaving their homes and possessions behind. The order passed Congress by just one vote. Chief Justice of the Supreme Court John Marshall objected; he demanded President Jackson rescind the order, but Jackson refused. In the spring of 1838, Jackson sent General Winfield Scott to Georgia with orders to build the stockades that would house the Indians awaiting their removal from the only land and life they had ever known. The first book in a planned trilogy, Cry of the Blood introduces an exciting and dramatic cast of characters beginning with the McCarrons from Australia, the Carvers from Germany, and the Kewahnees from West Africa. With its passions of love and hate, and agony and forgiveness, it offers a colorful adventure story put in a time frame of the early to mid 1800s in American history.
Convincingly blending historical fact with fiction, this centuries spanning adventure will have you questioning the truth about reincarnation. In 533 a council ordered by the Roman emperor made it a crime of heresy to continue to believe in reincarnation. Some theologians have contested the council's validity as the group was not convened by the Pope. As a result, however, the very fabric of Church philosophy was changed. Over time, Christians were raised accepting the theory of immediate salvation or eternal damnation upon death, as opposed to the belief of purification made possible through multiple incarnations. And the centuries passed. Jake is a normal child, until a traumatic event awakens a past-life memory and leads toward unraveling a massive conspiracy. Unfortunately for Jake, there are those charged with keeping this truth from the masses. Their advantage is being born into each lifetime with all their memories intact from their previous existences, until Jake starts remembering as well.
