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
three online sources: (1) Google Book Search; (2) the Family Search History
Archive Collection, both are FREE access websites; and (3) Ancestry.com
a subscription site. The major portion of our 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, (LP).
These books are still in copyright, and are displayed with the
permission of publishers and authors. You can browse these "limited
preview" titles just as you would in a bookstore, but you won't be able
to see more pages than the copyright holder has made available. When you've accessed the maximum number of
pages allowed for a book, any remaining pages will be omitted from your
preview. You can order full copies of any book using the "Buy this
book" links to the right of the preview page. The
Family History Archive is
a collection of published genealogy and family history books. The archive
includes histories of families, county and local histories, how-to books on
genealogy, genealogy magazines and periodicals (including some
international), medieval books (including histories and pedigrees), and
gazetteers. It also includes some specialized collections such as the
Filipino card collection and the “Liahona Elders Journal.” The books come
from the collections of the FamilySearch Family History Library, the Allen
County Public Library, the Houston Public Library – Clayton Library Center
for Genealogical Research, the Mid-Continent Public Library – Midwest
Genealogy Center, the BYU Harold B. Lee Library, the BYU Hawaii Joseph F.
Smith Library, and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Church
History Library. 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. |
