You can go to most city/county libraries and request an inter-library loan. You give them the info on a particular book and they can search libraries across the country to find what you want. The book will then be sent to your nearest library. I once received genealogy books located in North Dakota which were not available for check-out at any local libraries. It's worth asking about if there are books in a history room of a library that can not be check-out.

I. Hi to All,, Does anyone have the WEEKS family in CT., back as far as the early 1700's. My Rebecca was born in 1735. (I've found both Norwich and Norwalk in books on her husband's family) I have no idea who her parents were despite years of searching. The WEEKS books are not available in my local historical society. Would someone who has the books be so kind as to look for my poor orphan Rebecca????? Thanks so much.

Ok...I saw this message and read where you didn't know her parents name.....soooooo.....A William Weeks married a Polly Seymour and had Rebecca, born in Norwalk, Conn.Aug. 30 1817; m. June 30, 1839, John Goodrich Whitney; d. Albany, N.Y. April 11, 1844. Rebecca Weeks married Samuel Robinson Aug. 4, 1780, both of Chilmark, Massachusetts. William Weeks 2 (John 1), b. Feb. 11, 1680 3rd child was named Rebecca, born Oct 30 1707 and married Aug. 17, 1727, Edward Hatch. They were living in Falmouth, Ma. Joshua Weeks, b. Falmouth, Ma. July 28, 1765 (my g.g. grandfather ) 1st child by his 1st wife was Rebecca, b. Oct. 14, 1793 in Dartmouth, Ma. She m. George Kempton and removed to Maine. Ebenezer Weeks. b. Apr. 10, 1714, m.. Oct 13 1737 Rebecca Weeks, probably a cousin or second cousin ...must have lived in the Falmouth, Ma. area....could have moved. Ezekiel Weeks, b. L. Island about 1750, removed to N.J. and settleded near Egg Harbor at a place perhaps named for him, called, Weekstown, now in Atlantic co., had a daughter named Rebecca, but no info. The other Rebecca's I found either didn't have much information to give you, or were from the Long Island Week's born in the 1800"s, Randy Weeks ----- Original Message ----- From: "JANET JILOTE" <jjilote@msn.com> To: <WEEKS-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, June 23, 2003 8:03 PM Subject: Re: Descendants of Francis Weeks, Oyster Bay, L.
