GENEALOGICAL & HISTORICAL RESEARCH SOURCES
FOR 19TH CENTURY EAST FLORIDA
LOCAL HISTORIES
A source of genealogical and historical research
Local family histories and Family Bibles for East Florida are located in the genealogy collection of the Jacksonville (Florida) Public Library (among other locations). Family histories are not regarded as primary sources and contain their fair share of errors. On occasion, even a Family Bible contains dates or other data which is at odds with primary source material. With that in mind, these can be rich genealogical sources and often answer long-held family puzzles.
The PK Yonge Library of Florida History in Gainesville, Florida contains manuscripts which can be researched for references to specific famillies. The site can be accessed though the internet, however, the holdings are irreplaceable and must be examined at the Library.
If a family researcher or historian is unable to access this information, I will provide a research service at a minimal charge. Drop me an email with your request - and please specify that you are unable to access the information in person. Summations of reference material or copies can be provided.
