“best of the best”
For more than half a century Genealogical Publishing Company and its sister company, Clearfield Company, have been the leading
publishers of genealogical reference books, how-to books, and manuals. Both companies publish reprints and originals, as well as CDs,
and together they have published more than 2,000 titles in the combined fields of genealogy and local history.
Keeping pace with the changing technologies in the field of genealogy and in book publishing in the past several years, we have
expanded our website so that today it is a comprehensive list of every title our two companies carry. At the same time, we now offer more
and more of our titles as print-on-demand, so that many of the titles on our website are permanently available. Over the next couple years,
our hope is to have almost all of our titles available as print-on-demand, eliminating the frustration of having much-wanted titles temporarily out of print.
In past years our annual catalogue of books and CDs was meant to be a complete listing of all of our titles in print at that time, excluding
those titles currently out of print. Now that our website provides a complete listing, it is no longer necessary to compile and print a thick
catalogue, knowing that over the course of the year some titles would go out of print and become temporarily unavailable.
With all this in mind, we have shifted our annual catalogue’s focus, making it a listing of our “best of the best” titles. This year’s catalogue
contains the most popular and trusted, tried-and-true titles in each category, and we offer them here as a composite of the most respected
and most sought-after titles in the fields of genealogy and family history.
For a complete listing and full descriptions of all the books and CDs that our two companies offer, please visit our website at
www.genealogical.com.
How To order
In the catalogue, GPC books are identified by the letters “GPC” followed by a series of numbers, while
Clearfield books are identified by the letters “CFC.” Books with the letter “W” following the series of numbers are Genealogy Warehouse books, all of which have been reduced in price by at least 40%.
The order form at the rear of the catalogue will ask for either the GPC or the CFC number, with other
identifying information. If you are paying by check or money order, please make payment to genealogical.
com. Orders may also be placed by phone or fax, or you can order at www.genealogical.com.

CONTRACTS. A Primer for Genealogists,
Writers & Researchers
Sharon DeBartolo Carmack
Sooner or later, every
researcher, writer, or
teacher must struggle
with one of the following
issues: Do I need permission to use something off the Internet?
Can I reproduce a
newspaper obituary on
my ancestor without
permission? How do I
know whether something is in the public
domain? Does copyright
protect my website? Can
I publish my ancestor’s
diary without anyone’s permission? Is my lecture
or lesson protected by copyright? If I write something for my genealogical society as a volunteer,
who owns the copyright? Do I need permission
to download GEDCOM files?
This easy-to-understand guide answers all
these questions, explaining copyright laws,
rights, and publishing agreements and how these
apply to genealogists, writers, and researchers.

THE BEGINNER’S GUIDE TO USING
TAX LISTS
Cornelius Carroll
This guide is a primer for making the best genealogical use of tax lists. The author differentiates between tax lists, quit rents, tithables, militia
lists, censuses, and similar records and the laws

lists can be used for determining parentage, birth
and death dates, indentured servitude, slavery,
manumission, and racial status. They can be
used, in conjunction with other records, to help
determine the parentage of a female, the date of
a marriage, migration routes, and the accuracy of
family traditions.

SUSTAINABLE GENEALOGY: Separating Fact
from Fiction in Family Legends
Richard Hite
This book explains how
to avoid the traps many
family historians can fall
into. Whether it’s a proud
family legend, a venerable
publication, or the claims
of an Internet family tree,
Mr. Hite demonstrates that
many are the treasured
family stories that have
fallen under the lens of
careful research in primary
sources and DNA testing.
Here are a few of the
lessons that can guide you in your research:
recognizing when identical surnames conceal
different nationalities; understanding when and
why death certificates can be wrong; knowing
when ancestors’ middle names are not family names; respecting the role of geography in
establishing ancestral ties; taking the genealogies
of 19th-century “mug books” with a grain of salt;
accepting that all relationships must be chronologically plausible.

A GENEALOGIST’S REFRESHER COURSE.
Second Edition
Judy Jacobson
This work is a collection of first-hand experiences, do’s and don’ts, and privileged information. The author emphasizes the importance
of verifying our findings against the original
(primary) sources and not relying on secondary, or published, accounts as the foundation
for our genealogies. One of the most valuable
chapters contains a list of nearly 100 different
kinds of alternative sources of genealogical information that researchers may fail to consult.
This second edition features a new chapter on
the records of lineage, hereditary, and other
special organizations.

HISTORY FOR GENEALOGISTS. Using
Chronological Time Lines to Find and
Understand Your Ancestors. Revised Edition,
With 2016 Addendum Incorporating
Corrections to the 2009 Edition by Denise
Larson
Judy Jacobson
This work consists of
specific historical time
lines that answer basic
questions about our
forebears. For example,
if you are trying to learn
when your ancestors left
one place for another, it
would be helpful to ask if
it had to do with a military
conflict, social injustice,
religion, disease, economic
hardship, or a natural
disaster. No matter what
the explanation, the author has a time line that
could lead to the explanation.
Mrs. Jacobson dissects American history into
scores of time lines: the Industrial Revolution,
American immigration, the Labor Movement,
technological changes, internal migration
patterns, epidemics, the history of each of the
50 states, and, in brief, for the rest of North
America, Europe, and much, much more!

THE RESEARCHER’S GUIDE TO AMERICAN GENEALOGY. Third Edition
Val D. Greenwood
In every field of study there is one book that rises above the rest in stature
and authority and becomes the standard work in the field. In genealogy
that book is Val Greenwood’s Researcher’s Guide to American Genealogy.
It is the text of choice in colleges and universities or wherever courses in
American genealogy are taught, and it is the one book that is consistently
praised for setting a standard of excellence.
While it instructs the researcher in the timeless principles of genealogical
research, it also identifies the various classes of records employed in that
research, groups them in convenient tables and charts, gives their location,
explains their uses, and evaluates each of them in the context of the research
process. Designed to answer practically all the researcher’s needs, it is both
a textbook and an all-purpose reference book—a singular combination that
makes it the book of choice in any genealogical investigation.
This third edition incorporates the latest thinking on genealogy and
computers, specifically the relationship between computer technology (the
Internet and CD-ROM) and the timeless principles of good genealogical research. It also includes a
new chapter on the property rights of women, a revised chapter on the evaluation of genealogical
evidence, and updated information on the 1920 census.

UNDERSTANDING COLONIAL HANDWRITING
Harriet Stryker-Rodda
The author has developed a simple technique
for reading colonial handwriting. Here she
presents examples of colonial letter forms and
script, showing the letter forms in the process
of development and marking the ways in which
they differ from later letter forms. She also
provides a comparison of English and American
handwriting and examples of name forms and
signatures, all to bear out her central thesis,
that the reader must find meaning in a group of
symbols without needing to see each letter of
which the whole is composed.
GENERAL REFERENCE &
FINDING AIDS
AMERICAN PLACE NAMES OF LONG AGO.
A Republication of the Index to Cram’s
Unrivaled Atlas of the World as Based on the
Census of 1890
Gilbert S. Bahn
This is an index of over 100,000 place names
of “every county, city, town, village, and post-
office in the United States
[showing] the population
of the same according
to the Census of 1890.”
This index was prepared
from the 1890 U.S. census
before it was destroyed. It
is of critical importance to
the genealogist because
most genealogical research
takes place on the county
level, and in Cram’s index
all 100,000 places—large
and small—are tied to
a specific county. Each
entry, in alphabetical order within states, gives
the place name, the county in which the place
is located, and the population of the place at the
time of the census.

Quaker Records
Ellen T. Berry & David A. Berry
Our Quaker Ancestors
describes the types of
Quaker records that are
available, the location

EVIDENCE! Citation & Analysis for the
Family Historian
Evidence! is a reliable
standard for both the correct form of source citation
and the sound analysis
of evidence. To quote the
author, “Research, evidence,
citation, and analysis are
inseparable. Evidence is
the vehicle that moves our
research from curiosity to
reality. Citation and analysis
are the twin highways that
get us there, smoothly and
safely. Evidence! . . . offers a road map for beginners, who hope to avoid mistakes, and guideposts for the advanced, who already appreciate
the need to map their own course precisely. . . .”
PROFESSIONAL GENEALOGY: A Manual for
Researchers, Writers, Editors, Lecturers, and
Librarians
Edited by Elizabeth Shown Mills
Professional Genealogy is a manual by professionals for everyone serious about genealogy.
7
For family historians who
want to do their own
study, reliably, it describes
the standards. For hobbyists, attorneys, and
medical scientists who
seek professional researchers, it’s a consumer guide
that defines quality and
facilitates choices. For
librarians who struggle to
help a whole new class
of patrons, it provides a
bridge to the methods, sources, and minutiae of
“history, up-close and personal.” For established
genealogical professionals, it offers benchmarks
by which they can advance their skills and
places their businesses on sounder footing. And
for all those who dream of turning a fascinating hobby into a successful career, Professional
Genealogy details the preparation and the processes.
Its 29 chapters, written by two dozen scholars,
range over the following topic areas: research skills
and the analysis of evidence, writing and compiling
genealogical research, the core genealogy library
collection, genealogical ethics and standards,
editing and publishing, and topics relating to the
profession of genealogist.

Guide to the Research Process
This guide explains how successful research
can be achieved by following four models: the
Research Process Model—analyze the problem,
place it in legal and social context, identify
related and associated individuals, identify
relevant resources, and develop a research plan;
the Research Analysis Model—provide information from which we select evidence for analysis,
then a sound conclusion may be treated as
“proof” until and unless
new evidence emerges
to the contrary; the
Identity Triangulation
Model—identity is every
know detail of a human
life and is determined by
persona, relationships,
and origin; the Reliability
Model—proof is a body
of evidence accumulated
in the process of research
and analysis.

QUICKSHEET: Your Stripped-Bare Guide to
Historical Proof
Ms. Mills defines ‘proof’ as a conclusion we
reach from a body of evidence. No single source
can serve as ‘proof.’ No one
piece of information can
provide it. No one bit of
evidence can stand alone.
Ms. Mills suggests three
ways to arrive at ‘proof’:
evaluating the source, evaluating the information, and
evaluating and processing
the evidence. Ms. Mills also
provides a “Process Map
for Historical Researchers,”
established on the principle
that sources provide information from which we
identify evidence for analysis. A sound conclusion may then be considered ‘proof.’

Census Records
AMERICAN POPULATION BEFORE THE
FEDERAL CENSUS OF 1790
Evarts B. Greene & Virginia D. Harrington
This is an exhaustive
survey of the population
lists, estimates, and statistics
that were produced in the
American colonies before the
first federal census of 1790.
The population lists, which
are of paramount importance
to the genealogist, include
poll lists, tax lists, taxables,
militia lists, and censuses,
and were originally drawn up
for purposes of taxation and
local defense. Gleaned from archives in Britain
and the U.S. and from a wide range of published
sources, this scholarly work identifies every type
of population list taken before 1790, giving the
MAP GUIDE TO THE U.S. FEDERAL CENSUSES, 1790–1920
William Thorndale & William Dollarhide
This work shows all U.S. county boundaries from 1790 to 1920.
On each of the nearly 400 maps the old county lines are superimposed over the modern ones to highlight the boundary changes at
10-year intervals. Also included are (1) a history of census growth;
(2) the technical facts about each census; (3) a discussion of census
accuracy; (4) an essay on available sources for each state’s old county
lines; and (5) a statement with each map indicating which county
census lines exist and which are lost. An index lists all present-day
counties, plus nearly all defunct counties or counties later re-named.
With each map there is data on boundary changes, notes about
the census, and locality finding keys. There also are inset maps that
clarify territorial lines, a state-by-state bibliography of sources, and
an appendix outlining pitfalls in mapping county boundaries.

STATE CENSUS RECORDS
Ann S. Lainhart
State censuses rank with
federal censuses as a major
genealogical resource but
remain under-utilized. State
censuses not only stand as
substitutes for some of the
missing 1790, 1800, 1810,
and 1890 censuses (as well
as many county and statewide enumerations lost or
destroyed between 1790 and
1890) but also as valuable
population enumerations
in their own right. Many state censuses, for example, asked different questions than the federal
census, so they record information that cannot
be found elsewhere in federal schedules. State
by state, year by year, often county by county
and district by district, Mrs. Lainhart shows what
is available in state census records, when it is
available, and what one might expect to find in
the way of data.

for the Years 1904 to 1926 at the Ports

By year and by steamship company, and
thereunder by port of entry, this work lists the
name of the vessel, the exact date of the vessel’s
arrival, and the port of embarkation. Thus, if
the port of entry and the approximate arrival
dates are known, it may be possible to determine the name of the vessel and the name of
the passenger line. If the port of embarkation is
known, it may be possible to narrow the search
even further. And if the name of the ship and the
name of the line are known, it may be possible
to determine the exact date of arrival.

Census Records/Immigration & Passenger Lists
AMERICAN PASSENGER ARRIVAL RECORDS. A Guide to the Records of Immigrants
Arriving at American Ports by Sail and Steam. Updated and Enlarged Edition
Michael Tepper
Millions of people made their way to America in the most determined
and sustained migration the world has ever known. Initially they left traces
of their immigration in scattered records and documents. Later their arrival
here was documented so minutely that the records resulting are among the
largest, the most continuous and the most uniform in the nation’s archives.
These passenger arrival records identify by name, place of origin, and other
particulars the vast majority of persons who participated in the great Atlantic
migration. This book examines the records in their historical and legal framework, and it explains what they contain, where they can be found, and how
they can be used. In effect, it is a road map through the mass of records and
archival resources documenting immigrant arrivals from the time of the earliest
settlements to the passage of the Quota Acts three centuries later. This edition
features expanded coverage of colonial emigration records, finding aids and
reference materials, National Archives microfilm programs and publications,
current projects and new developments in immigration research, and more.

THE COMPLETE BOOK OF EMIGRANTS,
1607–1660
Peter Wilson Coldham
This is a reworking of the
records of the Exchequer,
the 1624 and 1625 censuses of Virginia, and the
records of licenses and examination of persons found
in John Camden Hotten’s
Original Lists of Persons of
Quality (1874). To Hotten’s
basic list, which he has
revised and augmented to
1660, Coldham has added
records of vagrants, waifs,
and prostitutes. He has also
added new transcriptions
of records—not in Hotten—of servants sent to
“foreign plantationes” from Bristol, 1654–1660;
and he has added much more from port books,
court records, and from many types of official
papers and documents.

Following the arrangement of the two earlier

English archives. The records used in this volume, in addition to the usual spread of sources,
derive principally from Plantation Apprenticeship
Bindings; Port Books; and Convict Pardons on
Condition of Transportation. Again, as with the
other volumes, there are indexes of names and
ships. Identifies some 25,000 emigrants.

This fourth and final volume brings the story
of English emigration in the colonial period to
its close. Voluntary emigration from the British
Isles went into a steep decline after the year
1750, only to rise again sharply from 1770 and
to reach epidemic proportions by 1773, a year of
great economic hardship in Britain. The records
drawn on, in addition to the usual sources,
include port books, plantation apprenticeship
bindings, and treasury records of emigrants
departing from English ports. The four volumes
combined identify about 100,000 English emigrants to colonial America from virtually every
reference that can be found in England.

some 50,000 English men,
women, and children were
sentenced to be sent to the
American colonies for a
variety of crimes. The data on
those involuntary colonists
came from a variety of official
English records. The names
of those deported are printed
in alphabetical order. Most

the following information: parish of origin, sentencing court, nature of the offense, date of sentence, date and ship on which
transported, date and place landed in America,
and the English county in which the sentence
was passed.

of Europe. The notable ancestors include Cerdic,
first of the West Saxon kings; Alfred the Great;
Robert Bruce; Kings Henry I, II and III; Kings
Edward I, II and III; and many lines through Charlemagne, Louis I, the Earls of Warren, the Dukes
of Normandy, the Royal House of Portugal, the

Thus, any commoner who

share the same basic royal
heritage as the most noble
knight—the complete heritage, not just the Plantagenet
ascent. This is the usual
lineage through which a commoner can enter
the domain of European royalty.
even if you already own the first edition, as
likely several million Americans can prove their
descent from this noted governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Also new in this volume
are the many connections to distinguished

these 25 sureties only 17 have
identified descendants, and
all 17 are represented in this
work, which traces their connections to approximately 160

SOUTHERN LOYALISTS IN THE CIVL WAR:
The Southern Claims Commission
Gary B. Mills
Six years after the Civil War, Congress created
the Southern Claims Commission, through which
pro-Union Southerners could apply for reimbursement of some of their losses. Some 22,298
cases were filed by individuals, family groups,
churches, and businesses. These case files
include such items as family letters and bibles,
wills and probate records, personal accounts,
and property inventories. The present work is a
“master index” to the case files of the Commission, and it gives, in tabular form, the name of
the claimant, his/her county and state, the Commission number, office and report numbers, and
the year and status of the claim.

AMERICAN MIGRATIONS 1765–1799. The lives, times, and families of
colonial Americans who remained loyal to the British Crown before,
during and after the Revolutionary War, as related in their own words
and through their correspondence
The records of the American Loyalist Claims Commission include applications,
correspondence, depositions, affidavits, and legal transcripts. Mr. Coldham has
grouped the Loyalist cases by the name and normal residence of the person in
whose right each claim was rendered. All 5,800 individual claims are abstracted
here, touching on 15,000 individuals, some three-quarters of whom took up
residence outside the U.S. after 1783. The remainder, including many who had
been classed as Loyalists, became citizens of the new Republic.

FROM ACROSS THE SPANISH EMPIRE:
Spanish Soldiers Who Helped Win the
American Revolutionary War, 1776–1783.
Arizona, California, Louisiana, New Mexico,
and Texas Military Rosters
Leroy Martinez
The Spanish Empire, under
King Carlos III, provided
significant aid and support for
America’s struggle for independence from Great Britain, and
this book is the first to identify
the Spanish combatants serving in North America during
the Revolution. The book
begins with a list of Spanish
governors, Spanish forts, and a
glossary of Spanish terms that
appear in the records. At the
heart of the work are the lists of Spanish soldiers
who served in areas covering today’s states of
Arizona, California, Louisiana, New Mexico,
and Texas. In most cases, the author identifies
each soldier by name, military unit, rank and
date, and the source, as well as sometimes by
age, place of origin in Europe, theater served in,
and other factors—shedding light on some 7,500
Spanish combatants.

THE PENSION ROLL OF 1835. Indexed
Edition. Four Volumes
U.S. War Department
The Pension Roll of 1835
is the most complete roll of
Revolutionary War pensioners ever published. It was
compiled by the War Department under Senate Resolutions of 1834–35 from lists
of pensioners who had been
enrolled under all previous
acts of Congress. When GPC
first reprinted the Roll in
1968, we rearranged it in four
volumes, one each for the
New England states, the Mid-Atlantic states, the
Southern states, and the Mid-Western states; in
1992, GPC added a comprehensive index at the
end of Volume IV. This Roll contains the names
and service records of about 60,700 soldiers,
both regulars and militia. Information given for
each soldier generally includes rank, annual
allowance, sums received, description of service,
date when placed on the pension roll, and date
of death or date of the law under which the pension was granted.

THE FINAL ROLLS of Citizens and Freedmen of the Five Civilized Tribes in Indian
Territory [and] INDEX TO THE FINAL ROLLS. Two Volumes
Dawes Commission
In 1893 the Dawes Commission was established to negotiate with
the Cherokees, Choctaws, Chickasaws, Creeks, and Seminoles (the Five
Civilized Tribes) to abolish tribal governments and to provide for the allotment of land to tribal members. The Commission was empowered to
prepare citizenship rolls (membership rolls) for each tribe to determine the
proper distribution of land and to hear and “determine the applications
of all persons who may apply to them for citizenship and . . . determine
the right of such applicant to be admitted and enrolled.”
The Final Rolls approved by the Commission contained the names of
101,000 Native Americans, of whom approximately one-fourth were full
blood. Most rolls give name, age, sex, degree of Indian blood, and the
number of the census card, generally known as the “enrollment card,”
on which each citizen was enrolled.
From the original Final Rolls, the Commission in 1907 published The
Final Rolls of Citizens and Freedmen of the Five Civilized Tribes in Indian
Territory along with the Index to the Final Rolls, reprinted here for the
first time in a century. The Index volume, divided by tribe and broken down under the various
categories noted above, provides the Indian’s name and the roll number. The roll number is the
key to the Final Rolls volume, which lists enrollees by tribe and category and thereunder by name,
age, sex, degree of blood, and the number of the census card.

based on the Guion Miller applications, part of
Record Groups 75 and 123 of the Bureau of Indian Affairs. Mr. Bowen begins with an Introduction describing the origins of the Guion Miller
rolls and the methodology used in abstracting
them. The applications provide the application
number, the applicant’s name and city of residence, the number of other persons in his family,
references to family members found in other applications, and the disposition of the application.
In some instances, Mr. Bowen has supplemented
the core elements found in the abstracts with
references to other family members by name,

TRACING ANCESTORS AMONG THE FIVE CIVILIZED TRIBES
Rachal Mills Lennon
Stories about Indian ancestors in the family tree are common among both
black and white families whose roots go deep in the American Southeast,
especially those with links to the Cherokees, Choctaws, Chickasaws, Creeks,
and Seminoles, the Five Civilized Tribes.
This work is designed to eliminate speculation and to help you determine
the truth about your Indian ancestry. It focuses on the toughest period to
research—the century or so prior to the removal of the Southeastern nations to Indian Territory. It provides the cultural, genealogical, and historical background needed to turn family stories into proved lineages, and it
outlines a method of research that will take you as far back as the colonial
and early federal periods and forward to the great tribal enrollment records
of the late 19th century.

The inclusion of maiden names makes it possible to identify the husbands
of sisters, daughters, and many granddaughters of immigrants and of immigrant sisters or kinswomen.

THIRD SUPPLEMENT TO TORREY’S New England Marriages Prior
to 1700
Melinde Lutz Sanborn
Mrs. Sanborn’s Third Supplement is primarily an index to the major genealogical periodicals published since Torrey’s death. Covering the period
from 1962 through the spring of 2003, this third supplement incorporates
all of the information from the first and second supplements and contains
80% new material! In all, approximately 6,000 entries referring to as many
as 20,000 individuals are included. An impressive number of new entries
were provided by prominent researchers from their own unpublished work,
while additional entries were developed from various website postings. Many
entries come from multi-generational studies, often running to five or six
generations, well into the 18th century. Thus, this work indexes not only the
17th-century couple, but it also leads the researcher to later generations.

MAYFLOWER INCREASINGS. 2nd Edition
Susan E. Roser
Mrs. Roser provides a summary of all that is
presently known about the passengers of the
Mayflower for the first three generations in America—names, dates, places, spouses, children, etc.
Unique to the Roser work, each third generation
listing includes references to records or sources
that will help the researcher find fourth generation children. A “Probate Appendix” also identifies fourth and fifth generation children.
Included as appendices are Governor Bradford’s “List of the Mayflower Passengers” and the
“1627 Cattle Division.” The book is fully indexed
and contains references to over 6,000 persons.

A GENEALOGICAL DICTIONARY OF THE
FIRST SETTLERS OF NEW ENGLAND,
Showing Three Generations of Those Who
Came Before May, 1692, on the Basis of
Farmer’s Register. With added “Genealogical
Notes and Errata” by Mrs. C. H. Dall, and
a “Genealogical Cross Index of the Four
Volumes” by O. P. Dexter. Four Volumes
James Savage
This is the basic genealogical dictionary of
early New England settlers, giving the name of
every settler who arrived in New England before
1692 regardless of their station, rank, or fortune.
Alphabetically arranged, for each individual it
gives the dates of his marriage and death, dates
of birth, marriage and death of his children,
and birth dates and names of the grandchildren.
According to the author, “nineteen twentieths
of the people of these New England colonies in
1775 were descendants of those found here in
1692, and probably seven eighths of them were
offspring of the settlers before 1642.”
“Probably the greatest work on genealogy ever
compiled for the New England area.”–P.W. Filby,

FEMALE INDEX to Genealogical Dictionary
of the First Settlers of New England by
James Savage
Patty Barthell Myers
Savage’s Genealogical Dictionary is one of
the greatest works ever published on New
England genealogy. The first edition came out in
1860, and as the four volumes were published
in alphabetical sequence by family name, the
males were usually found by checking their
surnames. The females were scattered throughout
the four volumes; all were difficult to find, and,
if the husbands’ names were unknown, these
ladies could not be found. This new female
index, however, published almost 150 years after
Savage’s Dictionary first came out, lists all the females alphabetically by maiden name and married names (more than 50,000 names altogether).

The Fifth Edition is Paul Heinegg’s most ambitious effort yet to reconstruct the history of the
free African American communities of Virginia
and the Carolinas by looking at the history of
their families. Now published in two volumes,
and 300 pages longer than the Fourth Edition,
this work consists of detailed genealogies of 600
free black families that originated in Virginia and
migrated to North and/or South
Carolina from the colonial period to about 1820.
The families under investigation represent nearly
all the African Americans who were free during the
colonial period in Virginia and North Carolina.

Jack N. Averitt
Each of the roughly 1,000 sketches gives the
subject’s place and date of birth, educational
background and military service, and then career,
civic interests, church affiliation, hobbies, and so
on. In almost every case, the author furnishes the
names of the subject’s parents, spouse, children,
and spouse’s parents, usually citing the subject’s
date of marriage and the dates or places of birth
and death of at least these three generations of
family members. In some cases, the subject’s
lineage can be traced back to the Civil War.

GEORGIA FREE PERSONS OF COLOR
Michael A. Ports
An 1818 statute of the Georgia legislature
required all free persons of color to register with
the inferior court of their county of residence.
County clerks were required to inscribe each
freed man or woman by name, age, place of
birth, residence, year arrived in Georgia, and occupation. The ensuing registers, varying in their
completeness, survive for 21 Georgia counties.
Over time, Mr. Ports hopes to transcribe all 21
county registers.

Pioneer Families of EASTERN AND
SOUTHEASTERN KENTUCKY
William C. Kozee
This work, which treats the same area as
Kozee’s Early Families of Eastern and Southeastern Kentucky above, is largely a sourcebook of
genealogical data rather than a collection of
family histories. Genealogical information on
each county is uniform and is arranged in the
following manner: first is given the boundary
and establishment by law of each county; next,
a synopsis of the earliest court records pertaining to the county; then, often a list of pioneer
families according to the 1810 federal census
and various county tax lists; and finally, and of
greatest importance to the researcher, marriage
records of various southeastern Kentucky counties. Additional sections of interest include lists
of Revolutionary, War of 1812, and Civil War
soldiers.

the Boones through eleven
generations from the original

data on families of undetermined connection, as well as
on families that married into
the Boone family in earlier

course, a biography of Daniel Boone.

OLD FAMILIES OF LOUISIANA
Stanley C. Arthur & George Campbell
Huchet de Kernion
The first part of this book consists of a series of
newspaper articles on various families by Charles
Patton Dimitry, which originally appeared in
the New Orleans Times-Democrat in 1892.
Since Dimitry’s focus was confined to a limited
number of early French and, to a lesser extent,
Spanish families, authors Arthur and Kernion
augmented them with prominent Louisiana
foundation families of English, Scottish, and Irish
descent, as well as with additional French and
Spanish families omitted by Dimitry. Spanning
thousands of individuals, all of whose origins
in Louisiana pre-date the Louisiana Purchase of
1803, this work should be the starting point for
tracing your Bayou ancestry.

ABSTRACTS OF THE DEBT BOOKS OF THE
PROVINCIAL LAND OFFICE OF MARYLAND.
V. L. Skinner, Jr.
The Provincial Land Office of Maryland was
responsible for distributing land from 1634 to
1777 on behalf of the Lord Proprietor. Land
owners acquired their plots by means of a warrant, followed by a patent. Each piece of land
so granted was subject to a yearly rent. The debt
books list persons owning land, giving the names
of the parcel(s) and the acreage of each tract that
the person owned for each year rent was collected. The books are arranged by county, by year,
and then by the name of the person paying the
rent. Mr. Skinner’s transcription of the debt books
is an ongoing project. So far, debt books for the

MASSACHUSETTS AND MAINE FAMILIES in the Ancestry of Walter Goodwin Davis
(1885–1966): A Reprinting, in Alphabetical Order by Surname, of the Sixteen MultiAncestor Compendia (plus Thomas Haley of Winter Harbor and His Descendants)
Compiled by Maine’s Foremost Genealogist, 1916–1963. With an
Introduction by Gary Boyd Roberts
Walter Goodwin Davis
This work covers 180 families, all of Davis’s colonial forebears plus 19
English families in the immediate ancestry of American immigrants. One
hundred fourteen of these families lived mostly in Massachusetts; 29 are
associated largely with Maine; and 18 lived largely in New Hampshire,
primarily Hampton, Portsmouth, or Exeter. Most of the 114 Massachusetts
families resided in Essex County, a few in Middlesex or Plymouth counties, or in Boston. Thus, this work is largely a compendium of “north of
Boston” families.

Resources. Second Edition
Carol McGinnis
This work identifies
records on the state and
regional level and then the
county level, providing details of vital records, court
and land records, military
records, newspapers, and

PIONEERS OF OLD MONOCACY
Grace L. Tracey & John P. Dern
This work has a dual focus. First it attempts to
locate and describe the land of the early settlers.
This is done by means of a superb series of plat
maps, drawn to scale from original surveys and
based on both certificates of survey and patents.
These show the exact locations of the various
grants and lots, names of owners and occupiers, dates of surveys and patents, and names of
contiguous land owners. Second, it identifies the
early settlers and inhabitants of the area through
deeds, wills and inventories, judgment records,
and rent rolls. Winner of the 1988 Donald Lines

EARLY SETTLERS OF NEW YORK STATE—
Their Ancestors and Descendants. Two
Volumes
Janet Wethy Foley
This is a consolidated,
edited version of a scarce
and very important
periodical, Early Settlers
of New York State. Edited
by New York genealogist
Janet Foley, the magazine’s
purpose was to collect,
publish, and preserve
church records, tombstone
inscriptions, and family
records—first from western
New York, then from all
of New York State. By the
time they had suspended publication, Mrs. Foley,
with assistance from her husband, had compiled
reams of Bible records, marriages, obituaries,
and the other primary genealogical sources for

the Republican Advocate of
Batavia, the Steuben Farmers
Advocate of Bath, the Geneva Gazette, the Jamestown
Journal, and Palmyra’s Wayne
Sentinel. Birth announcements
were not published in these
early newspapers, but many of
the marriage and death notices mentioned birth
years, birthplaces, and parents’ names.

His Five Shiploads of Settlers)
Jean Stephenson
Of interest here are the land evidences assembled from entries found in the South Carolina
Council Journal; namely, authorizations, survey
abstracts, wills, deeds and other records which
demonstrate where each family settled or was
entitled to settle. The families, which are grouped
under the name of the vessel they traveled in, are
identified by the name of the household head,
names of spouse and children, number of acres
surveyed, county, location of the nearest body of
water and the names of abutting neighbors, and
the source of the information.

Tennessee
1770–1790 CENSUS OF THE CUMBERLAND
SETTLEMENTS: Davidson, Sumner and
Tennessee Counties
Richard Carlton Fulcher
This work is an attempt to reconstruct a
census of the Cumberland River settlements
in Davidson, Sumner, and Tennessee counties, which today comprise all or part of forty
Tennessee counties. Mr. Fulcher abstracted from
public records all references to those living in
the jurisdictions between 1770 and 1790. From
wills, deeds, court minutes, marriage records,
military records, and many related items, this is
a carefully documented list of inhabitants—virtually the “first” census of Tennessee.
EARLIEST TENNESSEE LAND RECORDS &
EARLIEST TENNESSEE LAND HISTORY
Irene M. Griffey, CG
In the first portion of this book, Mrs. Griffey
organizes the legal history of the early Tennessee
land laws so that genealogists may be able to
grasp their substance. The bulk of this volume,
however, consists of abstracts of some 16,000 of
the earliest Tennessee land records in existence,
arranged in a tabular format. For each record
we are given the name of the claimant, the file
number, the name of the assignee (if any), the
county, number of acres, grant number, date,
entry number, entry date, land book and page
number, and a description of the stream nearest
to the grant. A separate listing of assignees, with
the corresponding claimant and file numbers,
follows in a separate table.

Alan N. Miller, II
West Tennessee’s Forgotten Children contains
over 4,000 apprenticeship records scattered

lists in tabular form the apprenticeships created
in nineteen Tennessee counties: Benton, Carroll,
Crockett, Decatur, Dyer, Fayette, Gibson, Hardeman, Hardin, Haywood, Henry, Lake, Lauderdale, Madison, McNairy, Obion, Shelby, Tipton,
and Weakley. The compiler has arranged the rec
ords by county and thereunder chronologically.
For each record Dr. Miller gives the name of the
apprentice, a date (either the date of the original
bond or indenture, or a subsequent date), the
age at apprenticeship, the name of the master,
and miscellaneous information ranging from the
name of the mother or a sibling, race, cause of
apprenticeship (e.g., orphan), his/her trade, etc.
The East Tennessee volume, containing about
11,000 entries and spanning the period 1778
to 1911, bears reference to apprenticeships
created in the following Tennessee counties:
Anderson, Bledsoe, Blount, Bradley, Campbell,
Carter, Claiborne, Grainger, Greene, Hamblen,
Hawkins, Jefferson, Johnson, Knox, Loudon,
Marion, McMinn, Meigs, Monroe, Morgan, Polk,
Rhea, Roane, Scott, Sequatchie, Sevier, Sullivan,
Union, and Washington.
Coverage in the Middle Tennessee volume
extends to some 7,000 apprenticeship records
between 1774 and 1902. Following the same
tabular arrangement as in the other volumes,
it identifies apprentices found in the following
thirty-five Tennessee counties: Bedford, Cannon,
Cheatham, Clay, Coffee, Davidson, DeKalb,
Dickson, Franklin, Giles, Grundy, Hickman,
Houston, Humphreys, Jackson, Lawrence, Lewis,

TENNESSEE ADOPTIONS, 1805–1900
Alan N. Miller
The adoption records abstracted for this book
fall into two categories: (1) Adoptions abstracted
from state legislative records, labeled TPA (Tennessee Private Acts), and (2) Adoption proceedings in local courts, recovered from widely scattered, mostly-unindexed Minutes of the County
Courts. The minutes of the County Courts of most
Tennessee counties were searched until about
1900, but the search of Circuit Court Minutes
was suspended with 1860. Includes accounts of
why a child was available for adoption.

In all cases, these family histories are traced
forward from the oldest known ancestor of the
line to the family member (living or memorialized) featured in the sketch, for whom, in turn,
a biography—often with a photograph—is
provided. This is followed, frequently, by additional, collateral lines linked to the subject of
the essay. Many of the lineages go back to 16thcentury England, still others give connections
to Massachusetts and the other New England
states. Finally, while the work contains upwards
of 30,000 references to kith and kin, the name
indexes found at the front of the two volumes
identify nearly 1,200 principal descendants of
the main families treated.

ADVENTURERS OF PURSE AND PERSON VIRGINIA 1607–1624/5.
Fourth Edition. Published for the Order of First Families of Virginia,
1607–1624/5
John Frederick Dorman, Editor
This multi-volume work establishes descents—through the sixth generation—of
the 150 individuals who can be identified as (1) Adventurers of Purse (i.e. stockholders in the Virginia Company of London) who either came to Virginia in the
period 1607–1625 and had descendants or who did not come to Virginia within
that period but whose grandchildren were residents there; or (2) Adventurers of
Person, 1607–1625 (i.e. ordinary immigrants to Virginia) who left descendants.
Volume One covers families A–F (Andrews through Freeman), and identifies 52
families and over 7,800 individual descendants resident in Virginia (or subsequently
in other states). Family accounts are supported by 10,000 footnote citations to
manuscripts or published records. The index contains 19,000 name, place, and
subject entries, many with multiple page citations.
Volume Two covers families G–P (Gaither through Purifoy), and identifies 51
families and over 7,684 individual descendants. As with Volume One, family
accounts are supported by nearly 10,000 footnote citations; the index contains
20,000 name, place and subject entries.
Volume Three covers families R–Z (Reynolds through Zouche), and identifies
46 families and more than 6,500 individual descendants. As with volumes One
and Two, family accounts are supported by nearly 10,000 footnote citations; the
index contains 20,000 name, place, and subject entries.

bounty land.
Annexed to these claims are certificates of
heirship, wills and powers of attorney, dates of
birth and death, and place of residence of the

VIRGINIA IMMIGRANTS AND ADVENTURERS, 1607–1635: A Biographical Dictionary
Martha W. McCartney
This book brings together a variety of primary sources regarding Virginia’s
earliest European inhabitants and the sparsely populated and fragile communities in which they lived, resulting in the most comprehensive collection of annotated biographical sketches yet published. Ms. McCartney conveys the basics
about many of these original colonists: their origins, the names of the ships
they sailed on, the names of the “hundreds” and “plantations” they inhabited,
the names of their spouses and children, their occupations and their position
in the colony, their relationships with fellow colonists and Indian neighbors,
their living conditions as far as can be ascertained from documentary sources,
their ownership of land, the dates and circumstances of their death, and other
details about their personal lives.
Maps provided identify the sites at which Virginia’s earliest plantations
were located and enable genealogists and students of colonial history to link
most of the more than 5,500 people included in this volume to the cultural
landscape. An introductory chapter, moreover, includes an overview of local
and regional settlement and provides succinct histories of the various plantations established in
Tidewater Virginia by 1635.

JAMESTOWN PEOPLE TO 1800: Landowners, Public Officials, Minorities, and Native
Leaders
Martha W. McCartney
This work provides a detailed look at the people associated with Jamestown
from its founding in 1607 to 1800. Based on government records and private
archives, it provides historical biographies of several distinct groups of people:
Jamestown Island landowners, public officials such as council members and
burgesses, Native-American leaders, and African Americans associated with
Jamestown. It also covers more than a thousand people who did not own land
on Jamestown Island but whose activities brought them to Virginia’s capital city.
Using an array of fascinating but little known sources, McCartney offers
authoritative biographies and sketches of everyone in the public record associated with Virginia’s capital. She has also enriched her text with a careful
study of privately held papers, lending texture to the historical record while
filling in little known details about this very distinctive population.

A HISTORY OF LOUISA COUNTY, VIRGINIA
Malcolm Harris
The first half of the book is organized around
five institutional themes: politics, military history, country roads, churches and parishes, and
education. Within these chapters, Dr. Harris
introduces lists of the individuals who were
there when the history was being made: land
patentees, brides and grooms, Revolutionary and
Civil War veterans, teachers and their students,
and so on.
The second half, misleadingly labeled “Appendix,” provides a list of Louisa marriage bonds
from 1767–1800, and 150 pages of family
sketches of the county’s pioneer families.

FIRST MÉTIS FAMILIES OF QUEBEC,

The term Métis originally referred to the
offspring from the intermarriage of early French
fur traders with Canadian Native Americans.
Later, there were also Anglo Métis children of
Scottish, English, and other European fathers
and indigenous mothers. Today, the French and
Anglo Métis cultures have essentially merged
into a distinct group with official recognition as
one of the three Aboriginal Peoples of Canada.
This series of volumes traces the descendants of
the 56 original Métis families for at least three
generations and in some cases as many as ten.

ERIN’S SONS: Irish Arrivals in Atlantic
Canada. Volumes I–IV
Terrence M. Punch
Mr. Punch has combed
through a wide-ranging and
disparate group of sources
to identify as many Irish
immigrants as possible and
to reveal their place of
origin in the Old Country. The region of Atlantic
Canada covered here are
the provinces of Newfoundland and Labrador,
Prince Edward Island, New
Brunswick, and Nova Scotia. These volumes are
an invaluable tool for U.S. researchers, since
many New England Irish families can trace their
ancestry through Atlantic Canada. (Volume II
covers the same years as Volume I and includes
references to an additional 7,000 persons). Each
volume contains maps, showing Irish ports of
embarkation, an index of ships, and an index of
surnames.

Terrence M. Punch
Functioning as the
narrow end of a funnel
through which thousands
dispersed widely across
the North American
continent, the Maritime
Provinces of Canada
offered easy access, beckoning immigrants from
Ireland’s catchment areas
along the waterways of
Dublin, Londonderry, and
Cork. This book provides a chronological list of
the documented 1,050 voyages between Ireland
and the Maritimes, giving the names of the vessels, their port and date of departure as well as
their port of arrival and indicates the number of
passengers and sometimes their names and destination. Only 123 passenger lists of the 1,050
voyages survive, but by dint of groundbreaking
research, Mr. Punch has managed to fill in many
of the gaps.

Only after 1770 did
the Maritime Provinces of

Scots settlers, mainly but
not exclusively from the
Scottish Highlands. The
Scots put their stamp on
Cape Breton Island, the
eastern mainland of Nova
Scotia, much of Prince
Edward Island, and coastal
regions of New Brunswick.
These three volumes are based on materials found in the Nova Scotia Archives and the
Public Archives of New Brunswick, among
others. Records consulted range from newspaper announcements of marriages and deaths to
cemetery records and censuses, and from rare
passenger lists to probate records.

By 1776, the prisons of
England had disgorged some

the American colonies, most
of them destined to survive
and, with their descendants,
to populate the land of their

book focuses on the emergence and use of transportation as a means of dealing with an unwanted
population, dwelling at length on the processes
involved, the men charged with the administration of the system of transportation or engaged
in transportation as a business. It then proceeds
with a fascinating look at the transportees themselves, their lives and hapless careers, and their
reception in the colonies.

ANCESTRAL TRAILS. The Complete Guide to British Genealogy and Family History
2nd Edition
Mark D. Herber
Ancestral Trails enables the researcher to form a coherent picture of past
generations by describing virtually every class of record in every repository and
library in Britain. The book guides the researcher through the voluminous British
archives, extending back to medieval times, and provides a detailed view of the
records and published sources available, analyzing each record and guiding the
searcher to finding-aids and indexes. In this context, Mr. Herber is careful to
link sources together to ensure that researchers can use material found in one
source to assist a search in other sources. This second edition also brings the
reader up-to-date with the many important changes that have recently taken
place in British genealogy.
Writing in the Foreword to the second edition, John Titford remarks that “an
increasing amount of material of relevance to family historians is being made
available in print, on microform, on CD-ROM, and on the Internet; fresh finding
aids appear and older ones become redundant; record repositories, libraries,
family history societies and other interest groups appear afresh on the scene. . . . None of this has
escaped the notice of the author of Ancestral Trails, and this welcome new edition, to which the
phrase ‘bigger and better’ hardly does justice, is testimony to the continuing careful attention to
detail which characterised the first edition.”

BASIC GUIDE TO IRISH RECORDS FOR
FAMILY HISTORY
Brian Mitchell
Mr. Mitchell’s latest offering was inspired by
the growing number of Irish sources available on
the Internet and provides an up-to-date overview
of the key sources for Irish research. According
to the author, Irish genealogical records fall into
the following eight major categories: (1) civil registers of births, marriages, and deaths; (2) church
registers of baptisms, marriages, and burials;
(3) gravestone inscriptions; (4) wills; (5) 1901
and 1911 census returns; (6) mid-19th-century
Griffith’s Valuation; (7) early 19th-century Tithe
Applotment Books; and (8) other census substitutes. Each source is examined in detail.
Emphasizing the role of geography in Irish
genealogy, the author explains that the country is
divided into seven overlapping administrative divisions and clarifies the genealogical function of
each. The final sections list Internet sites devoted
exclusively or substantially to Irish genealogical
research and also provide a core bibliography of
the best sources now available.

administrative divisions to which all major Irish record sources are linked.
Mr. Mitchell has drawn at least four, and sometimes five, maps for every
county. The first county map depicts the civil/Church of Ireland parishes; the
second shows the baronies and Church of Ireland dioceses; the third map
illustrates the poor law unions and the parishes included within the probate
districts serving that county; the fourth plots Roman Catholic parishes and
dioceses; and the fifth locates Presbyterian congregations for the nine counties of Northern Ireland. The book includes three maps of Ireland to show
the area covered by each county, diocese, and probate district. In addition,
it describes all of the major record sources of Ireland.

THE SURNAMES OF NORTH WEST
IRELAND: Concise Histories of the Major
Surnames of Gaelic and Planter Origin
Brian Mitchell
Drawing on a range of primary and secondary
sources, the author has produced 324 singlepage histories of surnames that either originated
Ireland/Scotland/Europe
26
in or became established
in North West Ireland. Mr.
Mitchell estimates that these
histories document the
surname origins of over 80%
of people with roots in North
West Ireland.
Most of the histories
describe the geographic
prevalence of the name in
North West Ireland today, the
ancient origins of the name’s
founders, the name’s meaning, the expansion/contraction of the name, surname variations, and much
more. These characteristics distinguish Brian
Mitchell’s book as the most important addition to
Irish onomastics in many years.

HUGUENOT AND SCOTS LINKS, 1575–1775
David Dobson
Fearing reprisals after Louis XIV rescinded the
Edict of Nantes in 1685, Huguenots fled to the
Netherlands, Germany, Scandinavia, England,
America, and, in a few cases, to Scotland. Most
of these emigrants settled in the Canongate, then
a separate burgh but now a part of Edinburgh.
Working from baptismal registers, burgess
rolls, tax lists, marriage registers, and other

SCOTLAND DURING THE PLANTATION OF
ULSTER, 1600–1699
David Dobson
All four volumes in the series are designed to
assist family historians researching their origins
during the 17th century. Since only seventeen
parish registers of the Church of Scotland prior
to 1685 survive for this area, Mr. Dobson’s
researches attempt to fill the void as best as possible. The volumes are based, overwhelmingly,
on primary sources in the National Archives of
Scotland and Edinburgh, and they are fully referenced. The single most important source used
in the compilations are the Registers of Testaments for Glasgow. The inhabitants are arranged
alphabetically and are identified by a town or
townland, date, and source.

SCOTS-IRISH LINKS, 1575–1725.
Parts One–Eight
David Dobson
This series helps the researcher to link an
individual first to Ulster and then back to Scotland. Drawing on primary source material in the
British Museum in London, the Public Record
Office and Trinity College in Dublin, the Public
Record Office in Northern Ireland in Belfast,
as well as Scottish sources, these seven parts
identify approximately 8,000 Lowland Scots who
migrated to Ulster as university students, apprentices, ministers, merchants, weavers, teachers, or
persons in flight. Typically, each listing gives the
Scots-Irish person’s name, occupation, place of
residence, a date, and the source; in a number of
cases, Mr. Dobson also provides information on
spouse, children, local origins, and landholdings.

TRACING YOUR SCOTTISH ANCESTRY. Third Edition
Kathleen B. Cory
Revised and updated by Leslie Hodgson, this third edition is packed with
information and advice on basic research techniques. It focuses on the holdings of the two principal Scottish record repositories, the General Register
Office at New Register House and the Scottish Record Office, both in Edin
burgh. Referring to records of births, marriages, and deaths before and after
1855 and census returns from 1841 to 1891 at the first-named location, and
wills, testaments, deeds, and church records at the other, the author guides
you to a successful conclusion of your search. New subjects covered in the
third edition include the reorganization of local archives, the digitization and
accessibility of old records, and the use of local history in genealogy. There
are also chapters on family names, clans and tartans, heraldry, and record
repositories outside of Edinburgh.

POLISH ROOTS. Second Edition
Rosemary A. Chorzempa
Mrs. Chorzempa begins
with an examination of
Polish-American resources,
touching first on records
kept by the Polish-American family, then veering off into a discussion
of the standard records
employed in genealogical
research, such as census
and naturalization records,
ships’ passenger lists, vital
records of birth, marriage
and death, records of fraternal societies, newspapers, church records, and
military records. She treats each of these record
groups in the context of Polish-American research, setting a framework for her discussion of
the records held by the LDS Church in Salt Lake
City. She also provides a breakdown of libraries
and archives with Polish genealogical materials
and a comprehensive list of Polish genealogical
societies.
The bulk of the book focuses on research in
Poland, as the author shows the reader how to
find and use church and civil records; how and
where to locate research services, libraries, and
archives; how to make sense of Polish names
and the naming practices of the major ethnic
groups; and how, ultimately, to deal with the Polish language. Also contains a letter-writing guide,
a transliteration of queries and requests to be
sent to Polish churches, civil record offices, and
institutions for purposes of obtaining assistance.

TRACING ANCESTORS IN BARBADOS.
A Practical Guide
Geraldine Lane
This groundbreaking
manual covers all sections
of Barbadian society, from
English planter families
to indentured servants
and the tens of thousands
of Africans brought in
as slaves. Many of these
people subsequently
moved on to the United
States and other destinations to seek their fortune
beyond Barbados. Records
of baptism, marriage,
and burial for Anglican and other denominations—as well as those of birth and death—are
described here in detail. Other subjects covered
include wills, deeds, censuses, military records,
immigration and emigration, cemetery records,
and records of slaves and plantation ownership.
Developments in DNA testing are also examined as well as Internet sources and numerous
published sources.

Sheau-yueh J. Chao
This is a ground-breaking treatise on the
related topics of Chinese-American genealogy
and Chinese onomastics. In fact, the book is the
first basic tool in English to trace the origins of
Chinese surnames. Chapter 1 describes the history of Chinese surnames. Chapter 2 delivers a
genealogical analysis of more than 600 Chinese
surnames. Typically each surname sketch depicts
the founder or other originating influence upon
the name, the various locales associated with the
surname, reasons behind alterations in the name,
and so on. Chapter 3 is an annotated bibliography of Chinese and English language sources on
Chinese surnames. The work concludes with separate indexes to family names, authors, titles, and
Chinese-character stroke numbers (one mechanism used for grouping Chinese characters).

AN INDEX TO GRIFFITH’S VALUATION
The Valuation is arranged by county, barony,
poor law union, civil parish, and townland, and
lists every landholder and every householder in
Ireland–at that time about 1.25 million people.
The significance of the Valuation as a substitute
for census records is obvious. No early or mid19th-century Irish census survives; only Griffith’s
Valuation stands as an enumeration of the Irish
population at mid-century—the period of the
Great Famine! Few other records can be used to
identify the immigrant ancestor’s exact place of
origin, and only Griffith’s Valuation links the individual to a specific townland and civil parish.
