Surnames/tags: Broyles Briles
This is the seminal work on the first generations of the Broyles/Briles family in the United States. The publication date appears to be around 1940.
Dr. Keith (1874-1942) had a special interest in the Broyles family and corresponded with many descendants over a period of at least four decades. Those descendants had grandparents who were born in the early 1800's. The result was a huge typescript that covered thousands of individuals, the first six generations of the family and more in the U.S. Each individual was given a unique identification number.
The work has held up extremely well over time. It was reprinted by John K. Broyles, Sr., in his Broyles Family Newsletter, a quarterly publication from 1982-2000. The Newberry Library in Chicago is said to have Prof. Keith's papers.
