By Brian Mitchell. 128 pp., indexed. Balto., 1989. $20.00. SALE PRICE: $15.00 The purpose of the Ordnance Survey of Ireland was to map the whole country at a scale of six inches to one mile, and the six-inch maps appeared between 1835 and 1846. Each map was to have been accompanied by topographical descriptions, or memoirs, for every civil parish, but this was impractical, and the idea was abandoned. However, the field officers gathered much useful data, and the notebooks in which the information was recorded are now in the Royal Irish Academy in Dublin. They cover nineteen of Ireland's thirty-two counties, though the memoirs of Antrim and Londonderry are the only ones with lists of emigrants. These lists have been extracted, arranged under parish, and alphabetized, and they identify the emigrant's destination and his place of origin in Ireland--key pieces of information for anyone tracing his Irish ancestry. In addition, the age, town and address, year of emigration, and religious denomination are given for each emigrant. Over 3,000 emigrants are identified in this book. G4250. IRISH SETTLERS IN AMERICA. A Consolidation of Articles from the Journal of the American Irish Historical Society. By Michael J. O'Brien. 2 vols. 644 & 638 pp., indexed. (1979), repr. Balto., 1993. $85.00. SALE PRICE: $70.00 1 left Michael J. O'Brien was the historian and chief contributor to the Journal of the American Irish Historical Society during its years of publication, 1898-1941. O'Brien's numerous articles were united by a common objective--to explode the "Scotch-Irish myth," in effect to demonstrate that the Catholic Irish were more numerous than the Ulster Irish in the early days of immigration and more prominent in the affairs of state. O'Brien's collected articles now form a reference work of encyclopedic proportions--accessible, comprehensive, and convenient--and they touch upon the entire spectrum of colonial American history. In the 132 articles assembled here, O'Brien lists no fewer than 25,000 pioneers and settlers, his information deriving from both manuscript and printed sources. The two-volume consolidation also contains a new preface, a descriptive table of contents, and indexes. VIRGINIA MARRIAGE BONDS OF BEDFORD COUNTY, VIRGINIA 1755- 1800 by Earle S. Dennis and Jane E.

SALE: $30.00 In the towns and cities of New York, prior to 1880, official records of marriage and death were rarely filed. This is a serious impediment to research, of course, but newspapers can often be used to overcome this deficiency, as they contain aa wealth of information about the marriages and deaths of local people. Moreover, newspaper notices of marriages and deaths often contain detail lacking in the more frequently sought cemetery, church, and town record books. So it is with some relief that Fred Q. Bowman and Thomas J. Lynch joined forces to prodeuce this list of 7000 marriages and deaths from the newspapers of the Hudson-Mohawk Valley area, giving researchers a much-needed boost in their search for vital records. Typicially the marriage notices give such information as the names of the bride and groom, date of marriage, place, names of parents, name of officiating minister. Death notices, on the other hand, provide the date and place of death, age at death, sometimes cause of death, occupation, and names of survivors. All 7,000 entries in this work, naming as many as 20,000 individuals, were taken from the following newspapers in the Hudson-Mohawk Valley area: Rome Citizen, Herkimer Herald, Bunker Hill, Mohawk Courier, Montgomery Phoenix and Fort Plain Advertiser, West Troy Advocate and Watervliet Advertiser, Albany Gazette, Daily Albany Argus, American Eagle, Ulster Telegraph, Newburgh Journal, Putnam Democrat and Democrat Courier, Westchester Republican,Highland Democrat and Hudson River Chronicle.
