Family Tree Maker
Local and Family Histories:
New England, 1600s-1900s
CD # 449
This Family Archive contains the text of 20 comprehensive volumes of New England local and family histories. Because many of these volumes were published in small quantities and for limited distribution, previously they may have been difficult to locate. In all, the volumes contain information on more than 50,000 New England residents and their families. Unique because it includes not only family histories but local and town histories as well, this Family Archive provides a detailed account of life in early New England. The town histories were compiled from public record as well as private correspondence, and they cover a broad range of topics from education and religion to early settlement and major industry. While the information covers all parts of New England, some of the books focus specifically on Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island. For your convenience, this free-text Family Archive allows you to search on any type of identifying information (such as names, dates, and locations).
