Covering 137 Connecticut towns and comprising 14,333 typed pages, the Barbour Collection of Connecticut birth, marriage, and death records to about 1850 was the life work of Lucius Barnes Barbour, Connecticut Examiner of Public Records from 1911 to 1934. This present series, under the general editorship of Lorraine Cook White, is a town-by-town transcription of Barbour's celebrated collection of vital records, one of the last great manuscript collections to be published. Each volume in the series contains the birth, marriage, and death records of one or more Connecticut towns. Entries are listed in alphabetical order by town (also in alphabetical order) and give, typically, name, date of event, names of parents, names of children, names of both spouses, and sometimes such items as age, occupation, and place of residence.
This volume, the eighteenth of the series, contains the names of approximately 30,000 individuals.

Hardbound volumes totaling

pages. Books are in excellent condition. Just what you need for genealogy research. Per the publisher;
Researchers and libraries now have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to purchase a reprint of the greatest reference work in all of American genealogy, Marion Kaminkow’s
Genealogies in the Library of Congress
(2 vols.), with its two
Supplements
and the renowned
Complement to Genealogies in the Library of Congress
.
Together these five massive volumes comprise the most comprehensive listing of family histories available. Answering the all-important question as to what family histories have already been written, they represent the first step in genealogical research. Indeed, since their first appearance they have been hailed as the true starting point in genealogical research, the proof of which is manifested in the fact that they provide details on over 50,000 family histories, published and unpublished, in genealogical books as well as non-genealogical books, in periodicals as well as monographs, in English as well as other languages, in the Library of Congress as well as other major libraries! So before undertaking your own research, check here to see what has already been written.
Even the Internet can’t match the wealth of information found in this work, and with the uneven, almost random, listings of family histories found on one web site after another, this work is seen not only as a starting point in genealogical research but a refuge! We are therefore delighted to make this limited eBook edition available to those who require a systematic and comprehensive bibliography of family histories.
The complete five-volume eBook set of
Genealogies in the Library of Congress
, consisting of separate files for the base set of
Genealogies
, the two
Supplements
, and the
Complement
, is available at a considerable savings over the cost of the same volumes in print.
