New Copies of Old Records from Hebron, Connecticut, 1708-1875 Linda MacLachlan

This book augments the Barbour Collection of Connecticut Town Records for Hebron with transcriptions of two documents, extraction of a third, and analysis of a fourth. Part I contains a transcript of town death records, 1796?1860, not filmed by any library or indexed by Barbour; and the transcript of an 1886 manuscript by Will J. Warner, which includes all the early Gilead Church records and other historical material. Part II presents births, marriages and deaths, 1847?1870, extracted from an unrecognized volume of vital records in the Hebron town clerk?s office. These vital statistics expand Barbour?s collection for Hebron through 1854. Part III examines the methodology for completing the Barbour Index and provides additions and corrections to the index. Researchers will appreciate the every-name index that completes this work.
