This seventh volume in Shurtleff's ongoing series of court records encompasses the seven years from June 1661 to July 1668, during which time Thomas Prence was governor of the colony.

The information contained herein primarily concerns civil lawsuits and criminal cases brought before the courts of Plymouth: summonses and subpoenas, testimony of witnesses, judgments, pleas, grantings of damages, and sentencings. This is a concise compilation of day-to-day judicial records and pertinent genealogical material on colonial New England. An index to full-names and places concludes this work.

This is the fifth volume compiled by Mr. Boyle containing 18th-century Maryland runaway servant ads posted in local newspapers.

In addition to an individual's age and whereabouts, many ads also describe the character and physical appearance of runaways. In preparing this latest volume, Mr. Boyle consulted more than twenty late 18th-century newspapers from New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware, as well as from Maryland. The roughly 1,000 ads found here name close to 4,000 persons.

Truth-Seeking in an Age of (Mis)Information Overload
The unprecedented spread of false and misleading information is the flip side of the Internet's promise of universal access and information democratization. This volume features original contributions from scholars working on the challenge of misinformation across a wide range of STEM, humanities, and art disciplines. Modeling a collaborative, multidisciplinary "convergence approach," Truth-Seeking in an Age of (Mis)Information Overload is structured in three parts. Part 1, "Misinformation and Artificial Intelligence," confronts the danger of outsourcing judgement and decision-making to AI instruments in key areas of public life, from the processing of loan applications to school funding, policing, and criminal sentencing. Part 2, "Science Communication," foregrounds the need to rethink how scientific findings are communicated to the public, calling on scientists to cooperate with colleagues in other disciplines and community representatives to help minimize the negative effects of mis/disinformation in such vital areas as climate change science and public health. Part 3, "Building Trust," further advocates for and explores instances of trust-building initiatives as a necessary precondition of both community-oriented scholarly activity and effective intervention strategies in high impact areas such as public health. This book is freely available in an open access edition thanks to the generous support of the Humanities Institute at the University at Buffalo, State University of New York. It can also be found in the SUNY Open Access Repository at https: //soar.suny.edu/handle/20.500.12648/15540.
Your DNA Guide - The Workbook
You don't have to learn everything about genetic genealogy before asking (and answering!) specific DNA questions.That's the premise of Your DNA Guide -the Book, a unique new approach to learning genetic genealogy. Instead of learning more-than-you-need-to-know in textbook style, you'll choose a specific DNA question and start exploring it right away. Follow concrete step-by-step plans, learning important DNA concepts--in plain English-as you go. As you proceed, you will check your progress and be guided based on your specific results at each stage. This powerful, hands-on approach is based on the author's 20 years of experience in the genetic genealogy industry, including five years of one-on-one client mentoring.Your DNA Guide -the Book is for anyone who has taken a DNA test or may want to. It helps genealogists reconstruct family trees. It helps adoptees identify biological relatives. It can help you identify a specific DNA match. In short, it helps anyone explore what their DNA-and their DNA matches-can tell them about their family.

The Guidebook to Historic Germantown [Pennsylvania]
According to Charles F. Jenkins, this guidebook is not a history; it presents the main historic facts arranged so that "the sightseer may have no trouble in finding and identifying each particular site." Germantown's "conception and settlement, the nationality and character of its early settlers, its architecture, its industrial life and enterprise - gave it marked individuality. It was the threshold over which entered the great German immigration which brought many modifications in language, manners and religion to the commonwealth and nation. It was the home, on two occasions, of the President of the United States and members of his cabinet - All these incidents and more make it an important spot in our country's history and growth."Opening with a chronology of Germantown, the author provides dates of significant events, beginning with the arrival of Francis Daniel Pastorius in Philadelphia in 1683, up to 1854, when Germantown was made part of Philadelphia. This timetable is followed by a partial bibliography, giving references to publications for those looking to dive deeper into the town's past. The author then discusses how pioneers traveled to Germantown using steam cars, the settlement of the town, the historical importance of Main Street and the buildings that occupied it, excursions through the East and West sides of Germantown, The Battle of Germantown, a biography of Francis Daniel Pastorius, and a list of the streets of Germantown. Several charming illustrations enhance the text. A full-name and place index concludes this work.

War Letters of Henry Cronbach Lowenhaupt (1943-1944)
Compiled by Charles A. Lowenhaupt, the war letters of his father, Henry Cronbach Lowenhaupt, arrived regularly in the United States during the years 1943 and 1944. Henry was a young Harvard-educated lawyer when he entered World War II. He was stationed in North Africa, Sicily and Italy always following the American forces moving North. His letters suggest that he made friends, ate well, and saw some interesting sites. But what they don't say is perhaps even more telling. Henry was stationed in Bari during a time when President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Prime Minister Winston Churchill didn't want their military personnel in Bari to talk about what was happening there. With that in mind, the supplemental section to this collection of letters provides additional insights into what Bari was, and is, like and why it played an important role in the war. A robust Appendix contains historical research about Bari during World War II created by Alessandro Lavopa of Storie di Famiglia with excerpts from Henry Lowenhaupt's war letters interspersed to add a sense of where he was and what he was doing in Bari at various times in the War.

Mississippi Court Records from the High Court of Errors and Appeals, 1799-1859
By: Mary L. Hendrix, Pub. 1950, reprinted 2024, 446 pages, Soft Cover, Index, ISBN #0-89308-529-4. This book is a MUST for those doing research in the State of Mississippi. Considering the very limited amount or research data in printed form on the state, makes this one very sought out research tool. The records within this book cover the entire state and not just the burned counties. The cases herein indexed and abstracted pertain to Will Administration, Property Settlement, Guardianship and Divorce cases. What makes this book so important is that: as shown by the chart included in this book, many records were destroyed in courthouse fires. Except for the data contained in the Files of the High Court sent up by the Probate Courts of these counties, there is nothing left of these early records. The wills included in this volume, filed with High Court, are copies of the original wills and in many instances, constitute the only existing evidence of family connections and relationships.
