In 1884, Carroll D. Wright was appointed to prepare a report showing the condition of the public records of the parishes, towns, and counties of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. This remarkable book, originally published with the title Report on the Custody and Condition of the Public Records of Parishes, Towns, and Counties in 1889, brings together under one cover a town-by-town, church-by-church, and county-by-county listing of all the records existing for each jurisdiction.
This easy-to-use compilation includes nine guides for using genealogical records: Using the Federal Census: 1790–1840, Using the Federal Census: 1850–1940, New York State Census, Massachusetts State Census, Rhode Island State Census, Immigration to the U.S., U.S. Naturalization, and Using Catholic Records, plus Applying to Lineage Societies.

A British Country House Alphabet: A Historical & Pictorial Journey by Curt DiCamillo is a new series of three high-quality hardback volumes that will enchant seasoned country house visitors—and amaze people new to art and architecture—as they read about surprising snippets of history that occurred at, or because of, a country house in England, Scotland, or Wales.
Maureen Taylor, The Photo Detective explores the history of toques and top hats, bowlers, and bonnets to add another dimension to understanding your family photographs. Fanciful, frilly, and fascinating, women’s hats made a fashion statement. There were hundreds of choices available each season. And they came with names like Leghorns, Gainsborough’s, poke bonnets, and wide-awakes. Home factories produced trim and hats for milliners, while enterprising women raised small birds destined to be stuffed for hat adornments. Men’s hats could be utilitarian.
This important work, originally published 1860–1862, provides a wealth of source material on early New England families. A key resource for the Great Migration Study Project, this four-volume set is a crucial component of the essential genealogical library. Includes an all-new index.
