To Maryland from Overseas

Description

This was published just before Harry Wright Newman’sdeath in 1983, but the edition was so small that few people know of it. This work has documentation on the British and Continental origins of 1,400 people who settled in Maryland between 1634 and the beginning of the Federal Period. Each colonist is dealt with in a separate paragraph, the contents of which range from abstracts of wills, deeds, patents, judgment records, pension records, and naturalizations to abstracts of private papers, visitations, and parish registers.
