My Christmas wish list this year was full of gene-books and boy did Santa deliver. Well, not so much Santa as my family but they did a great job. I got several books that I've wanted for quite some time and just haven't been able to spring for. Here's what I got:
The Great Wagon Road by Parke Rouse
Lord Dunmore's Little War of 1774 by Warren Skidmore
North Carolina Research by Helen Leary (If you haven't checked this out yet, you really need to do so. It's not just an NC book. The info it contains holds true for just about every locality so it really works as a general reference and information manual rather than just a locality specific reference.)
Old Title Deeds by N.W. Alcock
Monongalia County (Virginia) publick claims by Janice Abercrombie
Map Guide to American Migration Routes by William Dollarhide
Map Guide to the U.S. Federal Censuses by William Thorndale
Whew! That's a long list and I'm so so so happy to be able to dive into these titles whenever I want now. Some of them, like the books by Thorndale and Dollarhide and Leary and Skidmore, have been on my wishlist for a looooong time. So now it's time to cross them off the list and start looking for new ones! :)
