Synopsis
Indexed edition. 192pp. Perfect bound, 5x8. 3,746 entry Every Name Index. 1997 (1864). Colchester was established in 1698 and settled soon after that by, among others, Michaell Taintor, who was for many years town clerk. Charles M. Taintor extracted from the town and other records all of the vital records and many other of the more important deeds, etc. from the settlement of the town to as late as 1787 (most records are much earlier). These he published in 1864 in a small volume, which is now exceedingly rare and never reproduced. The book received an enthusiastic response in 1864, but the review in the Register noted: "lacks an index, which would have doubled its value." That lack has now been rectified by Picton Press' Every Name Index, which makes fully available to you all 3,746 entries in the book. This is a wonderful research tool for early 17th century Connecticut.
