|
The searchable family history records found here reference
over 288,000 individuals and provide broad coverage of who's who in early America.
The materials date from the pre-1600s to the 1800s and cover the entire United
States.
While not all families are represented, almost
every name distinguished in early America will be found in the Compendium.
The Compendium was compiled largely from lineage records and manuscript
genealogies submitted by individuals selected for inclusion, many of which
were illustrated with photographs, portraits, and coats of arms.
Because these genealogies were not created
by professionals, the Compendium is known to contain errors. It is suggested
that you verify the information with other sources before adding the information
to your own family tree. These historical volumes would cost at least
$325 when purchased separately as books, but you can access them together
here for just a fraction of that price.
