Sorry I should have been more specific. Here is a description from the book: It covers "...all the articles on births, baptisms, marriages, and deaths ever published in the two leading Pennsylvania periodicals, The Pennsyvania Magazine of History and Biography and The Pennsylvania Genealogical Magazine- the first through 1935, when it discontinued genealogical contributions; the second through 1980." The dates in the first Volume begin as early as 1650 and the dates in the third volume seem to go to about 1925. penny b
