Hess-Higbee updates? (James Fenton Higbee descendant )

I’m a descendant of James Fenton Higbee 1818, thru his daughter Anttoninette Higbee 1844, who married William Pike in 1861. I just found the Hess-Higbee Genealogy, Emerson Babcock 1909 book that my grandmother (Genevieve Pike) gave me. I have zero interest in genealogy. Zero. But someone may be updating the Hess-Higbee family tree after the book was published and I have some fairly good records of the Pike lineage.

I'll be glad to share what I have....

Just an update since I wrote this in '05. I'm now an active amateur genealogist and spend hours researching my tree, but mostly on the PIKE surname side. How things change.

And for other HIGBEEs...In Emerson's 1909 book, he asserts this branch goes back to William Prince of Orange circa 1553.

No, I haven't tried to verify that claim but it's interesting!
