Inhaltsangabe

History lives in these pages. Part I gathers rolls and documents relating to Revolutionary War soldiers from New Hampshire, tracing the men of the New Hampshire militia through their official service in the struggle for American independence. Part II turns back to earlier colonial era documents, presenting miscellaneous provincial government papers from 1629 to 1725 that illuminate the formation of authority, landholding and law in 17th century New England. Together, these New Hampshire state papers form a meticulously edited genealogical source collection drawn from original American colonial records. Compiled by Isaac W. Hammond, these historical military records and civil papers appear with the clarity and care that have made his New Hampshire collections enduring benchmarks for primary research. For family historians, this is a powerful genealogy research resource, preserving names, ranks, places, petitions and orders that can anchor elusive family lines in 18th century New Hampshire. For scholars and general readers alike, it stands as an indispensable reference for historians seeking first-hand testimony of how a small province negotiated empire, war and self-government. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, this enduring volume speaks equally to dedicated researchers and to readers who simply wish to hold the documentary past of New England in their hands.
