Item description from seller

Baltimore, Maryland:: Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., , 1974. A bright, clean, square, tight copy. Sharp corners. A few pages creased at one corner (i.e. dog-eared). NO owner's name or bookplate. NO remainder mark. Pages are clean. NO underlining. NO highlighting. NO margin notes. Sturdily bound in the publisher's maroon cloth. The first edition of this book was published in 1940. It was reprinted in 1967 with a new introduction by P. W. Filby, Librarian and Assistant Director, Maryland Historical Society. This 1974 edition retains Filby's introduction which says, in part: "Passano is still the only record of its kind. It is undoubtedly the first work which should be used when Maryland genealogical research is undertaken, and it is invaluable for out-of-State researchers with Maryland family connections." The largest section (362 pages) is an A-Z list of some 20,000 Maryland family names with identification of the sources and locations of all records, publications and documents in which they appear. The book also includes sections on state records (deeds, historic papers, land records, marriages, rent rolls, wills, etc.); county courthouse records; church records (parish registers, baptisms, marriages, deaths, etc.); tombstone inscriptions; census lists; ships; passengers; directories; war records; and numerous other data sources. Reprint of the 1940 original. Hard Cover. Very Good++ condition./No jacket, probably as issued. 8vo. xii, 478pp.

Store description

About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail order catalogue, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.
