In 1790 western Massachusetts was a crossroads for New England families heading west into New York or north into Vermont.

All genealogical research depends on authentic vital and historical records. Researchers of Stamford, Connecticut, an important New England town founded in 1641, have long depended on flawed transcriptions and abstracts of early town records. This new book, an extensively annotated version of the Town of Stamford’s 1882 transcription, rectifies that situation. Paul R. Finch has consulted the original records (which are fragile and partly illegible) and other primary sources, and incorporated research by Donald Lines Jacobus and others.

This PG shows you how to advance genealogical research into Rhode Island ancestors using the information from the state census, which was first taken as early as 1742 and as late as 1935.

Synopsis: The New Haven Town Records, 1769 - 1819 is a fully annotated and indexed primary source transcription of the minutes of New Haven's Town Meetings over what is arguably the most significant half century of the city's long history.

This volume continues where the “Records of the Particular Court of Connecticut”, published in 1928, left off in April 1663. At first the court is sometimes a “Particular Court”, sometimes an Assistants Court, but mostly these are the records of the county court. This title will be a valuable resource for those investigating the people of this place and time period.

Addressing the lack of compiled information on individuals who immigrated to New England after the Great Migration, the Early New England Families Study Project provides accurate and concise published summaries of seventeenth-century New Englanders. The project uses Clarence Almon Torrey’s bibliographic index of early New England marriages as a guide and focuses on the families of children of Great Migration parents and on individuals who immigrated from 1641 through 1700.
