The following is a list of references and citations that were consulted during the search for ancestral records. This list should be considered "partial" at all times, as new material is being discovered on an almost daily basis.
If you have any such material, please let us know so that we may add them for others to view and determine if they apply to their particular lineage.
Specific information from these lists will be added to individual ancestor pages and will identify the document and page number that was used to verify and validate that given ancestor.
Every care has been taken to ensure the data for each is correct and accurate through multiple proof readings. There may be errors. If you should happen upon one, please notify us immediately so we can go back and verify our information.
I currently have over 700 pages of information compiled for our tree, and have read and reviewed in excess of 10,000 pages of documentation. Books prepared by other authors have been read and information used as background and contextual filler in the preparation of the family story which will be attached upon completion. It is my desire to thank historians of early America for the use of their works. The list of these authors and their works would be exhaustive and could no doubt fill twenty or more pages. In my zeal to prepare my family story, I failed to maintain detailed records of each book I used for these purposes.
