Early American Sources---1500-1900


 There is a new kid on the block.......... or a new kid to the block is coming!  The June-July 2022 issue of Internet Genealogy,  author Diane L. Richard spotlighted a brand new resource. I quote from her article:

"In 2021, Joseph Thomas Ross created Early American Sources (www.earlyamericansources.org). The website encompasses archives, digital and published sources for the U.S., Canada and Mexico, ( with more to come from this hemisphere.) The object was to make it easier to connect researchers with "primary resources related to the Americas from roughly 1500 to 1900." This website is a work-in-progress (all U.S. states are not yet done; about 1/2 as we go to press). 

To further "tweak your beak," click to

www.earlyamericansources.og/united-states-archives. 

On the right side of this page is a list of national and extensive archives. There is an overview of holdings and then numerous links to webpages of interest for each archives. The left side of the page has a list of select states.
