Download or read book Discovering the Evidence in Church Records written by Arlene Eakle and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-04-11 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early in the history of America, the church played a critical role in recording vital records. These recordkeeping practices were brought with them from the old country where the state church was required by law to record details on all citizens of the realm. After the American Revolution, these practices changed over time. However, it was not until the 1900s that most states began to record births and deaths as mandated by law. Therefore, searching the church records is necessary to build your family tree more accurately. This Research Guide will give you details on how religious unrest in Europe affected migrations to America; in-depth details on why church records are important to your research; methods of tracing hard-to-find ancestors by religion; background information about non-conformist religions; sources for researching in the British Isles and Europe; instruction on how to use the evidence to trace and prove family relationships and migrations; and an introduction to large religious collections, some of which can be accessed online.

Download or read book Records of Trial from Thomas Shepard s Church in Cambridge 1638 1649 written by Lori Rogers-Stokes and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-10-23 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a revolutionary new reading of manuscript records left by puritan minister Thomas Shepard in Cambridge, Massachusetts that have been studied for decades as his on-the-spot recording of oral relations of faith delivered by candidates for church membership. This book proves that these records are not relations, but Shepard’s personal record of sessions of trial—meetings with candidates still working out their spiritual seeking. New transcriptions of the original manuscript records, and corresponding never-before-published writing by Shepard, dispel much of the confusion produced by the published transcriptions. Close-readings of the manuscripts, contrasted with the published transcriptions, set the stage for a new understanding of puritan spiritual preparation in Shepard’s Cambridge church. The book concludes with a challenge to the negative reading of the women’s records that is central to established scholarship, revealing their powerful, confident spiritual identities and voices.
