Description

New York:State Census of Albany County Towns in 1790
Kenneth Scott
Volume totaling
68
pages. Book is in good  condition.  Per The  Publisher:
The records of the New York State  Census of 1790 were almost completely destroyed in a fire that consumed the New  York State Library in March of 1911. Although a goodly portion of the Albany  County census of 1790 was indeed burned, about half of the names for Albany  County (just under 4,000) did survive. Interestingly, hundreds of those names  differ from the listing in the federal census of 1790, underlining the  importance of the state census to the genealogist. Professor Scott's compilation  is a transcription of the rescued portion of the Albany County census and gives,  first, the name of the head of household as it appears in the state census and,  immediately after it, in brackets, the reading in the federal census-an  arrangement of uncommon advantage to the genealogist. The names in the state  census are here listed alphabetically within each town or within each ward in  the city of Albany.

Hardbound volume  totaling
708
pages. Book  is in new condition. Just what you need  for genealogy research. Per the publisher;
This list of 30,638 burials in the state of Georgia was copied over a 35-year period from headstones and markers in 600 cemeteries located in nearly 100 Georgia counties--altogether a remarkable tally representing, for those who would otherwise attempt to      visit the cemeteries themselves, an incredible savings in time and effort. Arranged alphabetically by surname, entries include some or all of the following information: birth and death dates, names of parents and/or spouse, county, name of cemetery, and miscellaneous remarks such as armed forces affiliation. In addition, the location of the cemeteries at the time the transcriptions were made is also provided. While the work cannot claim to be exhaustive for all Georgia cemeteries--in fact major city cemeteries were largely ignored--this ambitious work is a major contribution to Georgia genealogy.
