Dale, Once again you provide a valuable link. I was not aware of USIGS, but there are a number of hard-to-find volumes and other documents on that site. I was able to get back to the root or base site at http://www.usigs.org/library/books/. Quite helpful. THANKS!!

Ginny - I can suggest an online source. Scans of what appears to be the manuscript of Mary Phillips Herbert's "Freetown, Massachusetts, Marriage Records, 1686-1844," (published 1934) are online at: http://www.usigs.org/library/books/ma/Freetown1934/ They are .tif files, so you will need a tif viewer to read them.
