Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nantucket Lands and Land Owners, Vol. 2 This work will comprise a series of chapters which will treat in topical form the history of Nantucket as found in the public records. Fortunately the recorded transactions of the first settlers have been well preserved, the only book that is missing being that which Peter Folger was accused of concealing. In Books 1, 2 and 3 in the Registry of Deeds are contained records of deeds, court proceedings, set-offs of land, elections, and settlements of estates of deceased persons. As soon as the different departments of public service became distinct from the Land Office, these records were kept in separate books. The records of the town were begun in 1699; the probate records in 1706; the proprietors in 1716, and the court in 1720; and after these dates the records of these departments were kept in separate books. The historical matter found in these three books is the basis of this work. Material has also been obtained from the State House in Albany and Boston and the Registry of Deeds in Edgartown. The plan adopted at first was to insert copies of all documents, but as these would be of value to only a few and as they are being printed, it was decided to give the substance only and file the copies in the rooms of the Historical Association at Nantucket. From 1660 to 1692 Nantucket was a part of New York colony, and all public documents were recorded in New York city, and in 1795 transferred to the new capital at Albany. These papers are being printed by the State Historian, the last volume including the year 1675. After 1692 all such papers were sent to Boston. The State of Massachusetts has taken no steps toward the publication of the early documents. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nantucket Lands and Land Owners The North American Indians had no 'written language and consequently no land titles that were based on docu ments. They had no inheritance, and property did not pass from parents to child. Whatever interest they had in land depended on occupation and it was difficult to under stand just in what this title consisted, for they had no permanent location but roamed about at will unless checked by a hostile tribe. The English undoubtedly found trouble in determining who were the owners of the land. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Settlers of Nantucket: Their Associates and Descendants Several histories and genealogical books Of individual families have been prepared, and are a great help in a work like this. It is not necessary, however, to the islanders that complete genealogies be put at their disposal, Since the town, court and Friends' records are unusually complete and well preserved, and may be consulted if one really wants to know. There are matters which, to the people Of Nantucket, who have one hundred or more years of family record on the island, are of common interest. It must be remembered that very few Of the early settlers came directly from the Old world to Nantucket. Settlements were located on the main land, and family alliances made which are now interesting to note; and in the few instances where the families are brought down to the present time, it is intended to Show the cropping up wherever one may go Of descendants Of the quiet Quaker people whose beginnings were SO humble, but whose influence has been so widespread.
