St. Luke's Records, 1829-early 1900's
Gordon's is the standard nineteenth-century gazetteer for New Jersey. Mr. Gordon, who traversed virtually the entire state in compiling his book, begins the lengthy "prefatory chapter" with precise geographical and geological descriptions of the state's terrain, climate, bodies of water, roads, canals, railroads, and so forth. The gazetteer itself, which extends an additional 175 pages, covers every nook and cranny in the state, from small streams, hills, and hamlets to townships, cities, and entire counties.
1770-1790 Census of the Cumberland Settlements
The earliest surviving federal enumerations of the Tennessee Country consist of the 1810 census of Rutherford County and an incomplete 1820 census. But since the first settlers arrived at the French Lick as early as 1779, the first forty years of settlement in the area we now call Tennessee are a blank, at least in the official enumerations. This work is an attempt to reconstruct a census of the Cumberland River settlements in Davidson, Sumner, and Tennessee counties, which today comprise all or part of forty Tennessee counties. To this end, Mr. Fulcher has abstracted from the public records all references to those living in the jurisdictions between 1770 and 1790. From wills, deeds, court minutes, marriage records, military records, and many related items, the author has put together a carefully documented list of inhabitants--virtually the "first" census of Tennessee.
A Calendar of Delaware Wills, New Castle County, 1682-1800

Each entry supplies the full name of the testator and such additional information as profession, place of residence, dates of filing and probate, names of children, relatives, wives, witnesses, executors, etc.
