[Genealib] Information on Publisher

[Dick Eastman]

Quintin Publications has been around for years and has reprinted many
books. The company originally republished books on French-Candian
genealogy and then later branched out to a broader audience. In recent
years the company has focused on CD-ROM "reprints" of old, out-of-print
books.

However, owner Bob Quintin passed away about a year ago. See the
obituary at
http://blog.eogn.com/eastmans_online_genealogy/2005/09/in_memoriam_bob.html.

The company is now operated by 2 or 3 of Bob Quintin's children. The web
site is at http://www.quintinpublications.com.
