Reviews of the series

If you have ancestors in any of these counties, buy the book.       Genealogists Magazine, 2019

The value of this series is that it can add much greater detail to what is on offer on the more local level …. particularly attractive is the inclusion of numerous examples of the types of documents that await the researcher. … I have no hesitation in suggesting to readers that they consider buying the book(s) …. sensibly priced and offer many a lead. …    Nova Scotia Genealogist XXXII/1
