Unfortunately, during the War of 1812, when the British burned the Capitol at Washington, the returns for several states were destroyed. However, the census records for Massachusetts survived and were available for this 1908 publication. In March 1790, Massachusetts had a population of 378,787, out of a total population of approximately 3,920,000. The information provided in this census includes the Name of Head of Family, the number of free white males of 16 years and upward in the household, the number of free white males and under living in the household, the number of free white females, all other free persons, and the number of slaves (there were no slaves in Massachusetts).

All duplication of the town clerk' s record has been eliminated, but differences in entry and other explanatory matter appear in brackets. Parentheses are used when they occur in the original record; also to indicate the maiden name of a married woman. When places other than Chelmsford and Massachusetts are named in the original records, they are given in the printed copy. Marriages and intentions of marriage are printed under the names of both parties. Double-dating is used in the months of January, February and March, prior to 1752 whenever it appears in the original, and also, whenever from the sequence of entry in the original, the date may be easily determined. In all records the original spelling of names is followed, and in the alphabetical arrangement the various forms should be examined, as items about the same family may be found under different spellings.'\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis book, so long out of print, is a quality addition to any researcher's Massachusetts library!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook #: J-E1104\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eISBN: 1596411043\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41545703227592,"sku":"J-E1104","price":38.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/6948\/6536\/products\/9781596411043.jpg?v=1643744388"},{"product_id":"j-b1149","title":"Early Massachusetts Marriages Prior to 1800, as Found on the Official Records of Worcester County","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEarly Massachusetts Marriages Prior to 1800, as Found on the Official Records of Worcester County: First Book. \u003ci\u003eFrederic W.

Consecrated anew year after year by the tears of love and sorrow, it becomes hallowed ground; and as we bend over the low headstone and decipher its quaint inscription, we are reminded of the affection which erected it, and which still commends it to our respect and care. We are told by the humblest stone that a loved one had died, and that loving ones survived who desired to honor, and preserve, the memory of the dead. It is indeed a brief story; but it is a story which we love to read, though its age may be reckoned in centuries. So our old cemetery is a record of human affection well fitted to improve the heart and stir the imagination. It is not necessarily a gloomy spot. It speaks rather of rest and peace after the labors and turmoil of life are ended.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor whatever reason, be it historical or familial, there is a fascination with cemeteries, their tombstones, and the people interned. Of interest to many, is an answer to the question, \u003ci\u003eWhen was the first person buried in this ground?\u003c\/i\u003e Though the earliest death mentioned in Dedham records occurred in 1637, probably the first year of the settlement, which was in 1635, did not pass before some succumbed to the hardships to which they were exposed, and were buried in that ground. It would be reasonable to assume that the death rate, especially among children, was large, because of a lack of necessary care and comforts. The boundaries of Dedham's \"Old Burial Place\" included an area of approximately one acre and, for a period of one hundred years, was the only place of burial in the town. Where a stone was not set up, the place of interment was soon forgotten, and so received another occupant, and, needless to say, that some parts of it were dug over several times to furnish graves for successive generations. I think we should be surprised to know how many bodies were buried in that one acre of land.\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eBook #: J-S1194 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eISBN: 9781596411944\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"JP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41613031669960,"sku":"J-S1194","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/6948\/6536\/products\/J-S1194_1.jpg?v=1734722959"},{"product_id":"j-s1300","title":"Ancestry and Descendants of Sir Richard Saltonstall: First Associate of the Massachusetts Bay Colony and Patentee of Connecticut","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAncestry and Descendants of Sir Richard Saltonstall: First Associate of the Massachusetts Bay Colony and Patentee of Connecticut. \u003ci\u003eLeverett Saltonstall.\u003c\/i\u003e Hardbound, (1897), 2016, Illus., Index, 374 pp.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book consists of two parts: Part I records the Saltonstall family Genealogy; Part II brings down the descent through female lines, and contains, in addition to several ancestral pedigrees, memoirs and matters of interest.

Registries of deeds and probate records have yielded a great deal of data not available elsewhere, as have the many cemeteries visited around the country. A very valuable source has been published family genealogies, one of which is the Damon Memorial written by the Rev. Samuel Chenery Damon. One of the most valuable sources of information has been correspondence with family members. Many of these people have had a strong interest in the family history and have sent a great deal of information.

The site of the first Patriot victory of the War for Independence, Concord was founded in 1635. The author recounts the town’s beginnings in considerable detail and devotes space to the Musketaquid Indians (the original occupants of what would become Concord), early settlers, efforts to convert the Indians, divisions of the town, and King Philip’s War. There are, of course, dramatic chapters on the coming of the Revolution; the Battle of Concord, April 19, 1775; and the War’s aftermath. Additional chapters trace the history of the Congregational Church in Concord; flora and fauna; topography; roads and bridges; modes of transportation; burial grounds and other important landmarks; and local institutions such as banks, voluntary associations, and insurance companies. Shattuck has also written separate chapters that cover similar terrain for the adjoining towns of Bedford, Acton, Lincoln, and Carlisle, each of which originated within the boundaries of old Concord. Genealogists will be glad to learn that throughout the volume are biographical notices and lists of Concord’s residents, including those of office holders, attorneys, physicians, and college graduates. In the important Appendix to \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eA History of the Town of Concord\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, the reader will find valuable descriptions of military service performed by Concord’s citizens during the Revolution and many genealogical and biographical notices of early Concord families.
