Behind every American family story lies a printed trail waiting to be rediscovered. Genealogy begins with good sources. First published in the nineteenth century, The American Genealogist, Being A Catalogue Of Family Histories is a landmark American genealogy bibliography: a painstaking family histories catalog of books and pamphlets on United States family history issued from 1771 onwards. By recording the title-pages of printed family genealogies in a single, organised sequence, it gives family historians and local researchers a clear map of where to look next for surname lineage research, whether their roots lie in New England, the Mid-Atlantic or beyond. Structured as a guide for family historians yet rigorous enough for archives and libraries, it serves both the curious beginner and the specialist who needs a trusted genealogy researchers reference book. Among the earliest dedicated tools for identifying early American genealogy sources, this volume anchors any serious genealogical reference collection. It offers direct access to colonial and 19th century genealogy, with notable strength in New England genealogy reference works and families linked to the nation's founding generations, making it a quiet but powerful Mayflower descendants research aid. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. For readers tracing a single line or collectors building a reference shelf, this enduring catalogue connects modern enquiry with the earliest printed record of American kinship.
