Description:
These records were originally published between 1856 and 1865 in ten volumes as Records of the Colony of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations and Records of the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations in New England. These volumes cover over a century and a half of information on the inhabitants of the Ocean State, from its earliest settlement in 1636 until the end of the Revolutionary era in 1792. Much can be learned about the early settlers of towns, those who served in the colonial militias and during the Revolutionary War, individuals who petitioned the General Assembly for grievance, those involved in probate and court matters, persons receiving payment for service to the colony and state and much, much more. Until now the limited availability of these volumes has left them a much-underutilized resource. This fully-searchable format will be of immense use to genealogists and historians alike.
