INTRODUCTION

This web page is
dedicated to the compilation of books that have shown to be of value in the
furtherance of research into the families names identified within the three
sub-sites of this website. The
collection is primarily derived from Google Book Search a FREE access website and Ancestry.com
a subscription site. The major portion of
the library is dedicated to books about places we’ve identified as locations
where our ancestors lived. We’ve
found that the local and county histories are of great value because they
usually contain information beyond the basic data regarding birth, marriage,
and death. These books are a wonderful source of
information for researchers with ancestors from that location. Not only may
it provide you with information on the time and place in which your ancestors
lived that will help you place them in historical context, but it may also
provide you with very specific information about your ancestors. Even if your
ancestors are not mentioned in the biographical sketches much can be learned
about the lives of our ancestors by reading about the lives of others who
lived during the same time period. The Google Book Search works just like its web search
function. When a book with content
that contains a match for your search terms is found it will be linked to
your search results. If the book is
out of copyright, or the publisher has given permission, you'll be able to
see a preview of the book, and in some cases the entire text. If it's in the public domain, you're |
free to download a PDF
copy. If you find a book you like,
click on the "Buy this book" and "Borrow this book" links
to see where you can buy or borrow it.
You can also Create your own library with Google
Book Search where you can label, review, rate, and of course,
full-text search, a customized selection of books. The majority of the books in this library that have been
derived from Google Search are those that provide the Full View of the entire book. The “full view” will allow you unlimited
examination of the contents. You will
also have the ability to download the book and even view the contents as
plain text that allows you to cut and paste information to your own
database. Some of the titles in
our library provide only a Limited Preview
. It seems that you can scroll
through most of these books without limit, but you may use the “search”
function about 6 times before reaching your viewing limit for that book. Ancestry.com is the
largest online source for family history information, including the web's
largest collection of historical records. The books found in this library
from this source are designated with a $ as this is a subscription
site. Even if you don’t subscribe to
Ancestry.com you should try the link you are interested in because access to
some of the books is free. Each one
of the book title links will take you directly to the search box for that
volume. Below the box you will find
the source information needed to cite the text. |
