How would I find the records from the Dartmouth Massachusetts and Yarmouth Massachusetts area? Would Fall River, Massachusetts be part of the Dartmouth meeting in the 1700 and 1800's? In Yarmouth I am interested in the late 1600 to 1800. Thank you, Stefanie -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.

Stefanie: I have done research on Cape Cod; and Sturgis Library is a favorite! It has the Lothrop Genealogy Room (Genealogy). and does have some of your early colonist, some under the Mayflower Compact. We stay in Yarmouth, MA and drive around and take the boat to the Islands. I have gone two times, while my son has gone almost every year beginning in 1999. Most of our MA ancestors are around Cape Cod and the Islands (Nantuacket & Martha's Vineyard) http://home.capecod.net/~sturgis/ Sturgis Library, Barnstable, MA (Cape Cod) Lucy Loomis, Library Director Sturgis Library 3090 Main Street P.O.

The Libraries at Nantucket (NHA), Martha's Vineyard, and Lyme are ones which we have used, also. We were even able to find our ancestors in graves in East Lyme -- Sears & the Paddock, but some of the very early are may at Plymouth, such as Richard Sears, the Pilgrim 1630 as he is not in the Sears Graveyard in East Lyme. The Sturgis Library did advise that we go to Plymouth for our Richard Sears to inquire about his grave.
