John and Gail,
I know of at least three versions of the Condit genealogy book, the original published in 1885, a reprint with updated information in 1916, and then a reprint of the 1916 version with very little change.Norman Condit, Col. (R) published the reprint and has all the original documents from the 1885 and 1916 editions.I believe he has also published three other pamphlet size editions, one on Nathaniel Cundict, fourth son of Peter, one on Isaac Cundict, seventh son of Peter, and on a completely separate family, Fielding Conditt of Virginia.
As far as I know, Norman is still collecting and colating information to publish updated portions of the Condit genealogy.He purposefully does not have email because it would detract from his time consolidating the information he has collected.I send him information every so often, although not often enough.It is hard to find information he does not already have.Elizabeth Fay has an interesting introduction by Norman entitled "MUSINGS ON CONDITS" on her web page ( http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/f/a/y/Elizabeth-Fay/BOOK-0001/0000-0001.html?Welcome=1041049861http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/f/a/y/Elizabeth-Fay/BOOK-0001/0000-0001.html?Welcome=1041049861 )
Hope this helps clarify the book issue.
