No scholarly reference library is complete without a copy of Ancestry''s Red Book. In it, you will find both general and specific information essential to researchers of American records. This revised 3rd edition provides updated county and town listings within the same overall state-by-state organization. Whether you are looking for your ancestors in the northeastern states, the South, the West, or somewhere in the middle, Ancestry''s Red Book has information on records and holdings for every county in the United States, as well as excellent maps from renowned mapmaker William Dollarhide.

In short, the Red Book is simply the book that no genealogist can afford not to have. The availability of census records such as federal, state, and territorial census reports is covered in detail. Unlike the federal census, state and territorial census were taken at different times and different questions were asked. Vital records are also discussed, including when and where they were kept and how.

Family history research is easier than it has ever been. Today, with an increased emphasis on preserving local records and with the burgeoning use of the Internet and computer technology, we can discover a great deal regarding the specifics of our family’s past—no matter what the locality.

Designed to help you recover the multigenerational facts of your ancestry, Red Book is an expansive guide to the most useful resources in each of the fifty United States and the District of Columbia. Organized by state, the book easily directs you to information-rich resources in areas including:

Vital Records
Census Records
Internet Resources

Background Sources
Maps
Land Records
Probate Records
Court Records
Tax Records
Cemetery Records
