* Southeast Australia: 1875
(Map - Ancestry.com) :
Some researchers have discovered that branches of their
family migrated not only to North America, but also to
Australia. They will have special interest in our reprint
of Edward Weller's map of Queensland, New South Wales and
Victoria, issued about 1875 by Blackie & Son. Railway
lines, small towns, and an abundance of political and
geographical information make this a most useful map for
the researcher.

* Genealogical Data from Colonial New Haven Newspapers
(Book - Amazon.com) :
Colonial newspapers are a prime source of genealogical
data, and early New Haven, Connecticut newspapers, in
particular, are rich in data on individuals who might not
otherwise appear in the public records. This present work,
a joint undertaking by Kenneth Scott and Rosanne Conway,
contains abstracts of all items concerned with persons in
New England mentioned in New Haven newspapers between 1755
and the outbreak of the Revolution, providing some 20,000
references to approximately 7,500 persons. Such findings
are normally hard won, and the genealogist interested in
early Connecticut has much to be grateful for.
This book may also be available from Amazon.co.uk
(United Kingdom) and Amazon.ca (Canada).
