WETHERSFIELD, The History of Ancient, Volume II: Genealogies and Biographies

1,120 pp. 100+ illus, maps, prints, portraits and graphs; signatures of early settlers; index. 1996 (1904).
This is the classic source for the history of Wethersfield, and belongs in every library with Connecticut material.
It contains hundreds of compiled genealogies extending over thousands of individuals. Many of Wethersfield's early settlers later went on to settle in or establish towns in Connecticut, New York and New Jersey. This wide geographic coverage coupled with the thoroughness of Stiles' work make this one of the major sources of colonial-era genealogical and historical research.
