This
is the romantic story of the early settlement of the New England towns
beginning with the arrival of the Mayflower passengers from Plymouth,
England, to found a community of the same name on this continent.
The connecting links between the cities and towns of New England and
those of similar name in Great Britain and their close relationship is
traced in detail. New light based on information uncovered from
old documents is thrown on the early history of these towns as well as
on the experiences and adventures of the early settlers. Of more
than common interest are the illustrations gathered from town archives
and old family collections, some of which are here published for the
first time. This book is not only of great historical value but
also forms an instructive guide to shrines and memorable places of the
territory under consideration.

About Our CDs
Many of our CDs are composed of collections of
multiple texts and documents concentrating on specific regions or subject
areas. Many contain 5, 10 or more separate publications. Each CD is
truly a reference BONANZA to the home historian with thousands of pages of
research information. The age of most of these text make them
inaccessible to the average researcher. Naturally their scarcity and
fragility makes them very expensive to acquire hence often kept under lock
and key in an effort to preserve them. Unfortunately this also makes them
unavailable for public view. Our CDs are produced by scanning the actual pages
of the original text making them not only excellent resources but archival
copies available for future generations. If you could find a hard copy of any of
these books it would cost hundreds of dollars - individually worth many times the cost of a
CD. The average cost of a single
CD, containing our "theme or regional" based collections has been kept
affordable in an effort to make this information obtainable to as many home
researchers as possible.
Our CDs have become the
ultimate research tool. Having a copy on hand allows research at your leisure
and your schedule while in the comfort of your home. Additionally you can still
print individual or groups of pages as you need directly from your CDs.
Giving you the best of both old and new research techniques. Unless
otherwise noted most pdf Files are now searchable. Searchable pdf
files allow single or multiple file searches with one
search request.
Our CDs are designed to be easily
used even for those new to
computers. The opening
menu, which opens much like a web page (utilizing your browser and a link like
navigation system), is easily navigated and extremely user
friendly.

Adobe Reader to the newest version available. Updates are available as free downloads at adobe.com. Our CDs now work with both
