1. Reply to Boston/Ted [1]
Ted, You may want to take a bus ride out to Waltham Ma too, to the National Archives (a branch of the main one that is in Washington DC). I haven't been able to get out there yet, but you could call them and get hours etc when you get here. It maybe worth spending an extra day. I have friends who had quite a bit of success out there with their searches. Also have you gone on the internet to Family History Library in Utah? That has helped me quite a bit. Good luck!

2. Re: [MANORFOL] Boston Visit--WHEELER family in Medway [1]
Ted, Regarding your WHEELER family in Medway, I checked our history "The New Grant," by Francis D. Donovan, our former Town Clerk. On page 109 is this reference, regarding the opening of the depot yard in 1853: "George Wheeler, the lean and mustachioed engineer leaned in easy nonchalance from his cab window . . ." The book isn't indexed, so there may be other WHEELER notations, as well. I asked a couple of our historians here in town about information (including the author of the above book), and

Am hoping there is someone out there who can help me make sense out of an apparent contradiction in the Medfield, Norfolk Co. Massachusetts Vital RECORDS. The individuals involved are: (Deacon) Ephraim WHEELOCK b. 2 Mar 1696 Mendon Massachusetts and his 2nd of 5 wives Priscilla PLIMPTON d/o Joseph PLIMPTON Jr. & Priscilla PARTRIDGE. the VR births lists 2 sons for this couple named Moses. Moses s/o Ephraim & Priscilla b. 4 March 1735/36 Medfield. Moses s/o Ephraim & Priscilla b. 11 Jan 1737/38 Medfie

Hello James - Torrey's New England Marriages prior 1700 pg 563 says - "PARTRIDGE, William & 1/wf Sarah PRICE [ - 1656] Dedham- Nov 1656, 23 Nov Medfield" Savage called her Sarah PIERCE "PARTRIDGE, William [ - 1692] & 2/wf Sarah COLBURN [- 1715] 19 Nov 1656 Medfield." I don't find any place that Sarah COLBURN was married twice- I do find her parents/siblings in Savage vol 2 pg 412 under "COALBORNE, Nathaniel - Dedham, freeman 2 June 1641, by w Priscilla, had Sarah b 5 Apr 1640 - Rebecca 17 Feb 1643
5. Boston Visit [1]
I shall be in Boston early Sep with about one day to work on family history. My interests include a Wheeler family in Medway circa 1820 and a Barnett family in Boston circa 1900. With no Boston experience, I would be most grateful for any suggestions as to how best to spend my time. My thoughts are the public library and the NEHGS. Your input would be most welcome. Thanks in advance. Ted Pierce ----- Original Message ----- From: MANORFOL-D-request@rootsweb.com To: MANORFOL-D@rootsweb.com Sent: Sa

8. Re: [MANORFOL] Boston Visit [1]
Ted, I would start at the Massachusetts Archives for the 1900 to 1910 and then I would go down the street to Massachusetts Vital Statitics for 1910 to 2000. What is nice about the Archives it is free and you can research both families there. The Massachusetts Vital's cost $9.00/hr to do research there. That is where I would start my research. Do you belong to NEHGS?? Where do you live?? I hope this helps?? Maryanne Jefferson Boston, MA ----- Original Message ----- From: Pierce-Ryan
9. Re: [MANORFOL] Boston Visit [1]
Try Mass. Vital Stats for records after about 1910/1915 and Mass Archives before that date. Both in Dorchester. The Archives is a great place to visit and it is free.

13. RE: [MANORFOL] Boston Visit [1]
Hi Ted - You haven't said what you have for information on these two families. That would be key to where you should spend the majority of your time. I live just outside of Boston, so I am in there all the time (as a matter of fact, I'm going there this afternoon). There are a few things that you should know, if you don't already, about them: Boston Public Library (www.bpl.org) has an extensive collection of national and local newspapers and city directories that are very useful if you are doing that

Hello Massachusetts Researchers: For those of you who have a deep interest in how, when and where your Surnames were formed I would like to direct you to 5 new pages we have recently added to our web site. Many researchers have for years believed that all ancestors with the same Surname were at some point related. That is simply not true. When you get back to proving your pre 1500s ancestors you will discover that there are in fact many Surnames that have passed through many families that have no rel
