SOCCGS CD DESCRIPTIVE LIST (As of December 22, 2017) (Listed Numerically by CD Number) CD# TITLE #001 Marriage Index: Louisiana: 1718-1925 (case 11) This Family Archive indexes approximately 570,000 individuals who were married in 58 selected parishes (counties) in Louisiana. Records begin as early as 1718 in St. Helens Parish. There are no records for any parishes for the years 1719-1727 and 1729-1733. After 1734, there is a general increase in records throughout the state, and the collection continues into the mid-1900s. Most of these records were compiled from courthouse marriage records. For pre-1850 marriages, it is better to use Family Archive 227, because it is more comprehensive for that time period. Family Archive 227 includes everything that is available on Family Archive 1, plus some additional information. Marriage indexes can save you research time by telling you that a particular marriage record containing your ancestor's name exists. With the information provided, you may be able to find a newspaper announcement, which may provide more details about the bride, groom, and their families. #002 Marriage Index: IL, IN, KY, OH, TN: 1720-1926 (case 11) This CD contains indexes to marriage records for selected years from 221 selected counties in five states: Illinois (19), Indiana (51), Kentucky (67), Ohio (39), and Tennessee (45). There are approximately 738,000 individuals referenced, starting as early as 1720 and continuing to the early 1900s. Records indexed may not be comprehensive for the time and region covered. #003 Marriage Index: AL, GA, SC: 1641-1944 (case 11) This Family Archive contains indexes to marriage records for selected counties and years from 114 counties in Alabama (32) and Georgia (82). County records were not used for South Carolina; instead, other sources containing marriage records were compiled. Approximately 379,000 individuals are referenced, starting as early as 1641 and continuing to the mid-1900s. Records indexed may not be comprehensive for the time and region covered. #005 Marriage Index: AR, MO, MS, TX: 1766-1981 (case 11) This Family Archive contains indexes to marriage records for selected counties and years from 161 counties in four states: Arkansas (11), Mississippi (83), Missouri (24), and Texas (82). Approximately 1,047,000 individuals are referenced, beginning as early as 1766 and continuing to 1981. Records indexed may not be comprehensive for the time and region covered. #006 Marriage Index: Arkansas: 1779-1992 (case 11) This Family Archive contains indexes to marriage records for selected counties and years from 19 counties in the state of Arkansas. Approximately 308,000 individuals are referenced. #011 New Netherland Vital Records 1600s (case 6) This data set represents over 1,793 families in the present area of New York and New Jersey, as well as parts of Delaware and Pennsylvania. Spanning 1613 to 1674, this is rich and detailed family pedigree information. Because so few American records are available from this time period, the data takes on heightened significance. Given that these records start so early in American history and are quite thorough, a large portion of United States residents will have at least one ancestor in this group. While the information that you'll learn from this data set varies, you can often learn: • Names of family members • Ages of family members • Locations of events • Dates of vital events • Native towns of origin • Approximate arrival date in America What are the data sources for this product? Genealogical and Biographical Directory to Persons in New Netherland, From 1613 to 1674. Volumes I- IV. Created by David M. Riker, chairman of the Genealogy Committee of the Holland Society of New York. #015 Family Pedigrees, Everton Publishers: 1500-1900 (case 10) This Family Archive contains approximately 100,000 family groupings from Everton's Family File Volumes 1 and 2 and "Roots" Cellar Volume 1, providing information on about 1 million individuals total. Most of these groupings are from the United States and Europe, but some are from Latin America, Canada, the Pacific Islands, and Asia #017 Birth Records: United States / Europe: 900-1880 (case 7) #019 Egle's Notes and Queries of Pennsylvania, 1700s-1800s This CD offers unprecedented advantages and savings to anyone undertaking research in central Pennsylvania. Comprising a total of twelve volumes, Egle's celebrated Notes and Queries is the most important multi-volume work on the genealogy, biography, and history of central Pennsylvania ever published. Included in its nearly 5,000 pages are a vast number of genealogies, family sketches, and biographies, as well as extensive lists of early settlers and soldiers of the various wars, including the French and Indian War, the Revolutionary War, and the War of 1812. In addition, the work encompasses an impressive array of genealogical source records--early wills, church records, marriage and death records, tax lists, and lists of early immigrants and frontiersmen. For fast and easy access, all names mentioned in the twelve volumes of Egle's Notes and Queries are available on this CD via a single, electronic index, which is based on the renowned two-volume index prepared by the Decatur [Illinois] Genealogical Society in 1982 and 1986. As a point of interest Notes and Queries was originally published between 1879 and 1895 as a series of newspaper columns in the Harrisburg Daily Telegraph, then carried forward and published in five annual volumes between 1896 and 1900. The columns (and offprints of the columns which appeared in pamphlet form) were reprinted in seven volumes between the years 1894 and 1896; thus, with the five annual volumes for 1896-1900, the complete set of Notes and Queries which appears on this CD totals twelve volumes. #022 International Records: English Settlers in Barbados (case 10) Settled by the British in 1627, Barbados was home to many inhabitants who later relocated to mainland America, settling in Virginia, Georgia, the Carolinas, and other colonies. In fact, throughout most of the 17th and 18th centuries, there was a continuous flow of settlers from Barbados to virtually every point along the Atlantic seaboard. As a result, many families can trace their origins in the New World first to Barbados. This data set contains page images from six volumes compiled by Joanne McRee Sanders and published by the Genealogical Publishing Company. Barbados's surviving parish registers were copied during the mid-19th century and are now housed in the Barbados Department of Archives. The information compiled and presented in these volumes was taken from those registers. Information available varies by record type, and great deal of instructive material can be found in the Foreword or Preface to each volume. Approximately 200,000 individuals are referenced in these baptism, marriage, and probate source records. What are the data sources for this product? Produced in collaboration with the Genealogical Publishing Company, the following volumes are included in this data set: Barbados Records: Baptisms 1637-1800 The baptism entries for each parish are presented in this volume in the same sequence in which they appear in the copied registers. They are listed in chronological sequence and give the name of the child, the date of baptism, the names of parents, sometimes the date of birth, and a variety of miscellaneous data. Since the index to this single volume refers to more than 55,000 individuals, it is likely that the majority of persons residing in Barbados between 1637 and 1800 are named here. Barbados Records: Marriages 1643-1800, Volumes I and II This two-volume collection of marriages is arranged by Barbados parish and then by date. A typical entry shows the date of the marriage and the names of the bride and groom. Barbados Records: Wills and Administrations 1639-1725, Volumes I-III Arranged alphabetically according to the name of the testator, each abstract gives the names of all heirs, dates, titles, relationships, place names, references, land owners, burial locations, slaves and vessels mentioned in the wills. #113 217 Family History Genealogy Books (case 1) This Family Archive contains the full text from 217 actual book titles.
