Product Description
This collection of Pennsylvania genealogies is concerned primarily with familieswhich, for the most part, settled in the extreme regions of colonial Chester County, an area forwhich source material is notoriously scarce. Fully two-thirds of the families included are ofScotch-Irish ancestry, and most, though not all, are brought down to the late nineteenth century.More than 3,000 names are found in the index. ...

Product Description
The family register holds a distinctive place in American visual culture. Used to record marriages and offspring within a family through several generations, the family register also incorporates hand-illuminated decorative art. To the Latest Posterity is the first major study to explore the colorful world of Pennsylvania German family registers and their place in American social, religious, and cultural traditions.Renowned authorities on fraktur, Russell and Corinne Earnest trace the evolution of decorative family registers from their roots in medieval European illuminated manuscripts to their distinctly American forms that spread through Pennsylvania German culture. The form had a special association with persecuted Mennonites, who used the decorative documents to claim roots in their new home. The documents came to represent the separation from the Old World and the creation of family roots in the New. To the Latest Posterity is filled with examples of family registers from museums and private collections, including early handmade work as well as printed registers that were hand-filled in the nineteenth century. Bringing the art to the twentieth century, the Earnests discuss the adoption of the art by Amish, who continue the practice of illuminated family record-keeping today.

Product Description
Without question, the greatest storehouse of information on Pennsylvania is found in the 138 volumes of the Pennsylvania Archives, published in ten series between 1838 and 1935. The first sixteen volumes of the Pennsylvania Archives, forming a distinct series known as Colonial Records, are a treasure trove in themselves and represent one of the cornerstones of early American record sources. Never properly indexed, the sixteen volumes lock away priceless information on the early inhabitants of Pennsylvania, the first ten volumes covering Minutes of the Provincial Council, 1683-1775 and the last six covering Minutes of the Supreme Executive Council, 1777-1790. Aware of the unfulfilled potential of the Colonial Records, Dr. Mary Dunn of Uniontown, Pennsylvania, a dedicated educator and award-winning teacher, compiled her own manuscript indexes to the series. We are pleased to offer Dr. Dunn's indexes to the sixteen volumes of Pennsylvania's Colonial Records, which have now been consolidated into a single alphabetical sequence by Mrs. Martha Reamy. This remarkable index names some 50,000 men and women who played a role in the early history of Pennsylvania. To explain the significance of the Colonial Records series and in particular its publishing history and unique contents, the work also includes an illuminating foreword by Jonathan Stayer of the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission.

Editorial Review

Product Description
Cumberland County, Pennsylvania was formed from Lancaster County in 1750. Itwas itself the parent county, in whole or in part, of Bedford, Franklin, Perry, and Mifflincounties, all of which are situated in south central Pennsylvania. Using a typescript collection ofextracts prepared by John G. Orr in 1925 and a microfilm copy of the original recordsphotographed by the LDS Church, Ms. Greene has compiled a complete collection of abstractsof the Cumberland County Court Quarter Session Dockets for the period 1750-1785. With theexception of the period 1771-1785 for Bedford County, the Quarter Session records extracted byMs. Greene apply to the original boundaries of Cumberland County.

The Quarter Session Dockets themselves are something of a genealogical miscellany. During the1750s, when the county seat was at Shippensburg, for example, a number of the entries pertainedto criminal cases dealing with assault and battery, larceny, neglect of highway duty, and so on.Other matters before the court included appointments to the grand jury, defaults on payments,selling spirits without a license, and horse theft. When it came to abstracts from the 1770s, bywhich time the court sessions were being held in Carlisle, the dockets mostly listed the names ofcounty officials, such as constables and overseers of roads, members of grand juries, and personswho had petitioned the court to lay out new roadways. Despite the paucity of recordsdemonstrating family relationships, the Quarter Session Dockets have the great virtue of placingindividuals in Cumberland County at a particular point in time during the second half of the 18thcentury. In fact, if the sought-after ancestor shows up in the 10,000-name index at the back ofthe book, the researcher may just have found the elusive clue needed for conducting furtherresearch in the records of Cumberland County. ...

Below is a list of the families treated:

Abbot, Adams/Anshutz, Ashhurst, Ashton, Babcock/Badcocke, Baird, Balch, Ball, Ballard, Barnes, Beaver, Benners, Bevan, Biddle, Bigger, Bissell, Blaine, Blight, Blynn, Bodine, Boggs, Bonsall, Bosbyshell, Bournonville, Brackenridge, Brice, Brodhead, Brown, Bryden, Bunting, Burchfield, Burnham, Butler, Calvert, Carpenter, Carstairs, Cass, Cassatt, Chaplin, Chew, Childs, Clark, Comegys, Converse, Cooke, Corbin, Coyle, Craig, Crispin, Crowell, Curtin, Cuthbert, Darte, De Armit, Dechert, Decker, Denny, Derr, Diehl, Donaldson, Duane, Dupui, Eaton, Ellison, Emlen, Etting, Eveland, Fassett, Findley, Fisher, Flagg, Follansbee, Fox, Friend, Gilpin, Gleffer, Haddock, Haines, Hamill, Hamilton, Hart, Haseltine, Hays, Herron, Hewson, Heyl, Hillman, Holme, Horne, Horner, Houston, Howard, Hudson, Huff, Hunt, Irish, Irwin, Jeffries, Johnson, Jordan, Kendrick, Kennedy, Kent, Kimber, Kinney, Lammot, Larimer, Laughlin, Leaming, Lennig, Lindsay, Lloyd , Logan, Logue, Loughrey, Lovejoy, Lydick, Lyne, Lyon, Maclay, Madeira, Magee, Mann, Marshall, Marston, McCall, McCandless, McClintock, McCloud, McCully, McCurdy, McKean, McMasters, Mehard, Mercur, Merrill, Miller, Miner, Molten, Montgomery, Moon, Morris, Morrow, Mosier, Mowry, Mulford, Neale, Neff, Newhall, Nichols, Norris, O'Hara, Osbourn, Paine, Parker, Patton, Paulson, Pearson, Peet, Pemberton, Penn, Pennypacker, Pequignot, Perrin, Philips, Pinkerton, Plumly, Plumstead, Porter, Potter, Powell, Preston, Price, Purves, Putnam, Rawle, Rea, Reed, Reynolds, Richards, Ricketts, Riter, Robb, Robbins, Roberts, Robinson, Rouse, Ruffner, Rupp, Sailor, Samson, Sanderson, Sankey, Scott, Sellers, Semple, Serrill, Shattuck, Sheakley, Sheppard, Shippen, Shiras, Shoemaker, Shriver, Sill, Singer, Smith, Snowden, Sparhawk, Steel, Stevens, Stevenson, Sullivan, Swift, Thomas, Thorington, Tingley, Townsend, Turnbull, Tyson, Van Leer, Waddell/Smith, Wagner, Wainwright, Wallace, Waller, Waln, Walter, Ward, Warner, Weaver, Weitzel, Wells, Wentworth, Wharton, Whelen, Wiederseim, Wignall, Wilkins, Wilkinson, Willing, Wilson, Winsheimer, Wistar/Wister, Wister, Wurts, Wynne, and Yeates.

These three volumes contain possibly the most authoritative collection of Pennsylvania genealogies ever assembled. The editor, John W. Jordan, was a celebrated historian as well as a genealogist, and, with his able assistants, among whom we find the great Warren S. Ely, he produced a work that is yet unmatched in scope and accuracy, covering fully 250 colonial and Revolutionary families in a series of independent genealogical narratives.

Extending from two or three pages to twenty and thirty pages or more, the genealogies generally commence with the known ancestors of the first Pennsylvania settler and proceed in the direct line of descent to representatives of the family in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, touching, in this manner, on as many as seven or eight or more generations, each member of which is scrupulously accounted for by name, spouse, issue, and dates of birth, marriage, and death, surfacing again, in many cases, as the subject of a biographical essay.

The original publication contained a good many full-page portraits which, in the interest of economy, we have omitted in this reprint. But whereas the original work lacked a guide to contents, we have made good this deficiency, adding a table of contents to each volume. ... Read more

Product Description
Arranged chronologically from 1728 to 1748 during the period of Franklin'spersonal charge, this useful reference tool consists of genealogical abstracts of the mostimportant newspaper in 18th-century America--the Pennsylvania Gazette. Concerned witheverything newsworthy, the Gazette featured a variety of human interest stories which, incontemporary terms, translate into strong genealogical fare, particularly under the professionalscrutiny of the late Dr. Kenneth Scott. The pages of the Gazette record fires, accidents, crimes,desertions, mutinies, piracies, and, in the advertisements, listings of merchants, artisans,teachers, and shippers. Births are rarely mentioned, but notices of marriage are much morefrequent, while deaths appear quite often. The abstracts contained herein are reduced to thequintessential minimum consistent with the interests of research. The 12,000 persons indexed areby no means limited to Philadelphia or Pennsylvania, but appear in all the Colonies, especiallyNew Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland. ... Read more
