David Kokernot: Rogue Soldier of the Texas Revolution Also Wins Jacobus Award!

The American Society of Genealogists annually presents the Jacobus Award “to a model genealogy published within the previous five years.” Its purpose is “to encourage sound scholarship in genealogical writing.” Commenting on the book, the Society said it “expertly documents Kokernot’s family, beginning with his great-grandfather in Amsterdam and concluding with his children in America, relying heavily on original records and meticulous documentation.”
