What's New in Family History, Genealogy & Local History Books? http://www.academic-genealogy.com/whatsnewbooks.htm While updating The BOOK [Stick] of JUDAH, which now has parent to child link connections for nodes of European Royalty, http://www.academic-genealogy.com/ancientgenealogyjudah.htm I found it necessary to add Publications & Services - BRILL, which currently has 1054 total scholarly results for 'keyword: medieval'. http://www.brill.nl/default.aspx?partid=18&searchtext=medieval&type=1 Example: Kingship and State Formation in Sweden 1130-1290 http://www.brill.nl/default.aspx?partid=210&pid=27230 Extensive appendices are included on the genealogy and landholdings of powerful families and on fortifications. The book is well furnished with over forty maps and genealogical tables. Forthcoming Titles http://www.brill.nl/default.aspx?partid=73 Daughters of London In production Expected: March 2011 http://www.brill.nl/default.aspx?partid=210&pid=31496 In historical records, women appear as widows, sometimes as wives or singlewomen, but one thing they had in common was they all were daughters. Through an examination of the Husting wills, Kate Staples focuses on daughters in the late medieval capital and their chances to own, rent, and manage property. These daughters were provided opportunities to be active economic agents in a world often described as hostile to women. Daughters of London also considers parents’ influence through their bequests to daughters and the visualization of daughters’ household spaces that these bequests allow. By focusing on daughterhood, and particularly urban daughters’ experiences of inheritance, we can refocus the lens through which we see and understand women’s lives in the medieval past . Example: 11 total results for 'keyword: genealogy' http://www.brill.nl/default.aspx?partid=18&searchtext=genealogy&type=1 The Genealogical Construction of the Kyrgyz Republic - Kinship, State and 'Tribalism' This book explores the conceptions of genealogy, kinship and ‘tribalism’ in the intertwined construction of personhood and national identity in the Kyrgyz Republic. It makes an important contribution to several theoretical and regional debates. First, it engages with broader anthropological literature. Genealogy, a central theme of the work, is explored not only as an analysis of relationships, but also as a methodological tool through which to examine society. Second, the book contributes to theories of kinship and the state. Research provides detailed accounts of Soviet and post-Soviet transformations, and their influence on people’s everyday lives. Third, the book fills a gap in Central/Inner Asian literature by focusing on social relations during a period of political upheaval. Respectfully yours, V.

You are certainly correct in that a bond doesn't mean that a marriage ever took place or that the date of the bond and the marriage are the same. I've seen an instance of a bond for the same guy to two different girls on consecutive days. This also applies to marriage licenses in more recent times . Just because a couple went and got a license doesn't mean they actually got married. And the date of the marriage might be a week after the date of the license. The meaning and purpose of the bond undoubtedly had some fine nuances that varied with time and place but generally it was to insure that there were no legal impediments to the marriage, ie, they didn't want some Lothario riding into town and marrying some Sweet Young Thing while he had wives in all the neighboring states. Keep in mind that there was no standard identification or easy way to check up on somebody's bonafides. Even all this was not to protect the SYT's virtue, but rather it was so the county/state wouldn't have to support a bunch of illegitimate kids. As far as I know, a bond was never to insure that a marriage actually took place. --

<snip> Wes, Your kind of correct. He is my MILs BIL. She was the one that wanted the obituary for her records (but of course I will keep a copy as well). I believe he lived alone. His children live in other states. His daughter called my MIL to give her the news. I do not even know the last time my wife saw his children. Probably over 20 - 25 years ago.

I have a question about early 19th century American marriage bonds. People on the Internet cite bonds as equivalent to a marriage certificate, in the sense that they assume the marriage actually did take place and on the date of the bond. However, if I understand correctly, a bond is no proof that a marriage did take place or that if it did, that it took place on that day. Could somebody please explain bonds to me clearly? Aside from being a general question (having noted many places where marriage dates are being justified by bonds rather than certificates), I have a specific instance that is bothering me. On this bond the sponsor was the bride's father, and the index notes that the groom-to- be never signed the bond personally. There is absolutely no trace of the groom after that day. I'm wondering if perhaps he had gotten the girl pregnant, the father made him promise to marry her, and he skipped town prior to the wedding. Is that a feasible scenario in light of whatever a marriage bond is supposed to signify? Thank you!!!
