Description:
NEEDHAM, Mass., Vital Records of, 1711-1845. By Robert Brand Hanson. 224pp. Smythe sewn and hard cover. 1997. #1829 $29.50
Needham was established in 1711 from part of Dedham, thus any Dedham researcher definitely will want this new book. Robert Hanson has combined all unpublished and published data on the vital records of Needham to form a complete, integrated, vital records source.
Working from the original town records, the original church records, records of cemetery inscriptions, marriage records of surrounding towns, and the partial vital records of Needham which were published earlier this century, he has compiled, compared, collated, and corrected. The net result is an exciting new source for Massachusetts researchers.
Because of the variety of original sources used, the records are presented here in the alphabetical format familiar from
earlier this century; births & baptism, then marriages, and then deaths, followed by an index to all names (primarily maiden names) not found alphabetically in the three listings.
Absolutely necessary for Massachusetts research.
