Historical and Genealogical Record of the First Settlers of Colchester County, N.S. - 1873 Product No. CA0322
The full title continues, "... down to the present time, compiled from the most authentic sources by Thomas Miller."
Thomas was born in 1803, and lived his life in and around Truro, probably the largest town of the county. Thus, he was well placed both geographically and temporally to make this record of many of the original families inhabiting this part of Nova Scotia. In his own words:
"The author of the following work being now about three score and ten years old, and nearly done with the affairs of this world, having some knowledge of the first settlement of Colchester, the names of the first settlers and their descendants, especially of the Townships of Truro and Onslow, as well as with many circumstances connected with the early settlement of the County, obtained by tradition and otherwise, was induced to note down, from time to time, some of them, in order that his children, and others who may come after, might know something about their forefathers, and the hardships they underwent in settling a new country.
It was his intention at first to write only about his own kindred; but, having begun, he was led on to mention nearly all the Grantees of the Townships of Truro, and some of Onslow and Londonderry, with their descendants, as far as he could gather information. …"
This book then is a powerhouse of genealogical information for this important access corridor to Nova Scotia, with perhaps as much as 90% of the book's text being dedicated to describing the many family trees while only the first couple and the last chapters are more specifically dedicated to a exploration of the area's history without relating it to particular families or individuals.
The author finishes his book with a four page index providing, mostly, a means to access individual family names. Having now the benefit of computer search-ability in this digital reproduction, we can definitely say that this was very much a partial index and that owning this digital version will provide a significant improvement in the readers ability to extract the "gold" from this "mine."
We have provided a sampler of a few pages from the book for you to freely download from our Downloads page, including all four of the printed index pages.

Sketches of Irish Soldiers in Every Land - 1881 Product No. CAI0360
By Col. James E. McGee, originally published 1881.
This is an interesting and entertaining book of 329 pages which takes a "broad brush" approach to the title subject which, as the author admits in his Preface, " …would require an ordinary lifetime to arrange … with any thing like system, and to record … with a proper degree of clearness and fidelity." Instead he takes a "stroll" through accounts of the experiences and adventures of well known Irishmen warriors who lived through the three centuries leading up to the middle of the 19th Century. Nor, as you might gather from the title, are these adventures conducted solely on Irish soil. The reputation of the "Fighting Irish" was such that they readily found employment, both as individuals as well as ready made fighting units, in many parts of the World - both Old and New.
A treasure both for the student of military history and for the genealogists attempting to understand the lives and motivation of their Irish ancestors who followed a military career.
Although laid out in an approximately chronological order the reader will find this digital edition offers superior accessibility to the content of this wonderful book because the whole text is fully computer searchable so any key word can be instantly found, and with it the relevant passage.
We are pleased to be working with the British Isles Family History Society of Greater Ottawa (BIFHSGO) to make digital copies of some works in their library so that the originals can be saved from everyday use while the content is made available to a wider audience. Please join with us to thank BIFHSGO, and particularly Betty Warburton (librarian) and her staff, for their generosity of spirit and their foresight in preserving these valuable old books.
