Dear List,
I originally joined the list to find help with my Mahoney relatives (circa
1900s) but have since obtained copies of two articles that may be of
interest to everyone else. Both are from August of 1747 concerning the same
subject. One is from the Boston Gazette (18 Aug 1747) and the other from
the Boston Post Boy (24 Aug 1747). They concern a list of people and where
they were from, who were taken by the french and indians back to Quebec.
These were printed from a microfilmed copy of the original newspapers.
Unfortunately, I have not been able to take the time to transcribe them and
wondered if someone else would like to do this for the list? I copied the
entire newpaper and so it has more information than just this article and
may be able to help someone else. The Boston Gazette was 4 pages long and
the Boston Post Boy was 2. The two articles are not the same. Most of the
names are mentioned in both but each has a few different ones included.
Please contact me if you would like to transcribe these for everyone and I
will be happy to email the pages individually to you. Or perhaps someone
would be willing to post these on a web site for all to see?
Marie
