This is a collection of articles published originally in The New York Genealogical and Biographical Record containing primary source materials on Long Island.The records included range from censuses and lists of early inhabitants to newspaper notices, wills, deeds, town records, and Bible and family records. Among the census records in this volume are the Southold census of 1686, the Hempstead census of 1698, and the 1800 federal census of Kings, Queens, and Suffolk counties. Early Kings County wills and deeds are abstracted, as are wills found in Queens County deed books. In addition, there are town records or vital statistics for Newtown, Huntington, Gravesend, Hempstead, and, especially, Southold. The entire collection of articles is completely indexed (25,000 entries!) and forms the perfect companion volume to the two-volume Genealogies of Long Island Families (see Item 3433).
These abstracts constitute some of the most valuable articles on the English origins of American colonists ever published. In order of appearance here, they are: (1) "Clues from English Archives Contributory to American Genealogy," by J. Henry Lea and J. R. Hutchinson; (2) "New York Gleanings in England," by Lothrop Withington; (3) "Genealogical Notes from the High Court of Admiralty Examinations," by J. R. Hutchinson; and (4) "A Digest of Essex Wills with Particular Reference to Names of Importance in the American Colonies," by William Gilbert. For the researcher's convenience, all four articles appear here in their entirety with an index of nearly 10,000 names.
Updating the earlier, Genealogical Resources in the New York Metropolitan Area, this volume describes genealogical repositories in all of New York's five boroughs with an emphasis on Jewish sources.

The Truth Teller newspaper was founded in April 1825, and was published every Saturday. The Truth Teller began accepting advertisements from people looking for relatives or friends with whom they had lost touch. Other newspapers were frequently asked to copy the advertisements published in the Truth Teller and the Truth Teller, in turn, would sometimes copy ads from those other newspapers. The ads offer glimpses of life during the early part of the nineteenth century. Most ads include a specific place of origin in Ireland. Other details may include year of immigration, ports of departure and arrival, names of ships, names of family members, residences and occupations.
