Native American Genealogy

Legends, Traditions, and Laws of the Iroquois, or Six Nations and History of the Tuscarora Indians
The present Tuscarora Indians, the once powerful and gifted nation, after their expulsion from the South, came North, and were initiated in the confederacy of the Iroquois, and who formerly held under their jurisdiction the largest portion of the Eastern States, now dwell within your bounds, as dependent nations, subject to the guardianship and supervision of a people who displaced their forefathers. Our numbers, the circumstances of our past history and present condition, and more especially the relation in which we stand to the people of the State, suggest many important questions concerning our future destiny.

Native American Nations

Indian Heroes and Great Chieftains
Every age, every race, has its leaders and heroes. There were over sixty distinct tribes of Indians on this continent, each of which boasted its notable men. The names and deeds of some of these men will live in American history, yet in the true sense they are unknown, because misunderstood. I should like to present some of the greatest chiefs of modern times in the light of the native character and ideals, believing that the American people will gladly do them tardy justice.

Marriage Intentions of Woburn, Massachusetts, 1699-1890
In 1886, while attempting to compile the full genealogy of a Woburn family, Edward F. Johnson found that no index existed for Woburn town records prior to 1843. He subsequently spent many long hours examining all town books of births, deaths, and marriages. It must have made a strong impression on him, as he spent nearly twenty years compiling the ten volumes in his Woburn Records series. The first three volumes, published in 1890 and 1891, were previously published on this website. These latest records are from the tenth volume of the series, published in 1919.

The Diaries of the Rev. Thomas Cary of Newburyport, Massachusetts - 1784
The Rev. Thomas Cary (1745-1808) was one of the many ministers along the Merrimack River who encouraged the patriotism of their parishioners during the Revolutionary War. He started his diary in Weston, Massachusetts, in 1762 and continued writing entries until 1806, two years before his death. This installment covers the year 1784.

Genealogy of the Waldo Family: A Record of the Descendants of Cornelius Waldo of Ipswich, Mass. from 1647 to 1900 By Waldo Lincoln A. B.

This genealogy was compiled by Waldo Lincoln in 1902. It traces the descendants of the founder of the American branch of the Waldo family, Cornelius Waldo. The immigrant was born about 1624, probably in England. It is not known what year Cornelius Waldo came to New England, but the first recorded reference to him is found in the Essex County Court records in 1647. Cornelius settled at Ipswich, Massachusetts, shortly after he arrived, if he did not go there immediately.

Cornelius Waldo married Hannah Cogswell of Ipswich, but the marriage date is unknown. The Waldos had twelve children, and they moved to Chelmsford, Massachusetts, in 1665. Mr. Waldo died January 3, 1700/1, at Chelmsford, and was buried in the old burying-ground there.
