* The Dublin City Franchise Roll, 1468-1512
(Book - Amazon.co.uk) :
This important medieval document provides a unique
insight into the social and economic history of late
15th-century Dublin. The roll gives the names and
occupations of 1425 people, both men and women, who were
granted the right to vote in municipal elections during a
period of political upheaval and change. Many of these
newly-enfranchised citizens derived their right to
freedom by birth or on marriage, and the roll gives the
names of fathers, husbands and wives, allowing the
researcher to build up a pattern of family and social
connections, and providing the genealogist with valuable
information from five centuries ago. The Dublin franchise
roll also contains a unique series of wills and deeds
which give topographical and social data not available
elsewhere. This edition is accompanied by extensive
indexes which are designed to make the information more
accessible.
May also be available from Amazon.com (United States) and
Amazon.ca (Canada)

* Revolutionary Soldiers in Kentucky: Also a Roster of the
Virginia Navy
(Book - Genealogical.com) :
Nearly all the adult male settlers of Kentucky had seen
service in the Revolutionary War, and this was especially
true of the settlers from Virginia, many of whom had been
granted bounty lands in Kentucky for their Revolutionary
services. In addition to a roll of the officers of the
Virginia Line who received land bounties in Kentucky, this
work includes a roll of the Revolutionary pensioners in
Kentucky, a list of the Illinois Regiment that served
under George Rogers Clark in the Northwest Campaign, and
a roster of the Virginia Navy, amounting in total to
about 6,500 individuals.

* List of Freemen of Massachusetts, 1630-1691
(Book - Genealogical.com) :
Under the first charter of the Massachusetts Colony, only
freemen of the Colony had the right to vote or hold
public office. Such were admitted freemen who could
fulfill the requirements of the Freeman's Oath in matters
of church membership and state allegiance. Between 1630
and 1691, some 4,500 men were admitted freemen, the
ancestors of nearly three-fourths of the inhabitants of
18th and 19th century New England.
