Morse Book on Richards Familes

A member of our Richards DNA Surname Project directed me to this 1861 book by Rev. Abner Morse: A Genealogical Register of the Descendants of Several Ancient Puritans. Vol. III. This book cover 12 early Richards families in great detail. You can explore the Morse Book online.

    Someone on this forum mentioned entering these Richards families in his genealogy software.  I wonder if he would be willing to share a gedcom file of that information to save the rest of us time in going through the Morse book?  We have plenty of work to do without all reading the same book from scratch.  Profound gratitude in advance if you would do this.  Thanks.
