About Us

Sam Teddy Publishing is the end result of over 20 years’ of genealogical and historical research of Jeffrey A. Linscott, an amateur genealogist, historian and author.

Credits to Mr. Linscott include a 1998 reprint of The May-Flower & Her Log, by Azel Ames (Heritage Books, Bowie, MD, softcover, ISBN 0-7884-1070-9, now out of print), and Ohio Soldiers Who Served in the War of 1812 (Genealogical Services, West Jordan, UT, hardcover, ISBN 0-89593-999-1).

Mr. Linscott has also self-published over a dozen family histories and has published The Linscott Herald, a Linscott family newsletter, for over 15 years, and The Whitcomb Wheel, a family newsletter of the Whitcomb family, now in its 5th year.

 

Upcoming Events:

August 8, 2010 - LINSCOTT FAMILY PICNIC: There will be a 15th Annual Linscott Family Picnic held on August 8 at the Lake St. George State Park, on State Route 3, Liberty, Maine. All Linscotts and Linscott descendants are invited. This is a bring-your-own lunch affair. As this is a state park, there is an entrance fee.

August 29, 2010 -  WHITCOMB FAMILY REUNION: The 86th Annual Reunion of the Descendants of Will and Carrie (Holmes) Whitcomb will be held Sunday, August 29, 2010 at Lake St. George State Park, Liberty, Maine, on State Route 3. Time is 12:00 noon. If you have attended these Whitcomb reunions before, PLEASE NOTE THE CHANGE OF LOCATION. In case of rain we will meet at the Morrill Baptist Church at 1:00 p.m. We will have a pot luck lunch (if possible, everyone please bring a dish), followed by a business meeting. This year, in addition to the usual prizes for youngest, oldest, and person coming the greatest distance, we will have a special drawing, donated by Jeff Linscott, of a printed copy of the 2009 edition of his book, “Our Whitcomb Family”. While this is an annual reunion specifically for the descendants of Will and Carrie (Holmes) Whitcomb, all Whitcomb descendants, no matter from what branch, are invited. Also, please note that as this is a Maine State Park, there is an entrance fee.
