* Armitage Parish Register (Staffordshire, England)
(Database Online - WorldVitalRecords.com) :
Armitage (or Armitage-with-Handsacre) has a very ancient
history going back to evidence of a Roman battle
happening there. Christianity was first thought to be
brought to the area by Saint Chad in 672. It is thought
that a church was later erected there by the Normans. The
register contains baptism and burial records from
1673-1812 and marriage records from 1673-1754. From
1754-1812, the registers contains the usual paper marriage
register issued after the passing of the Hardwick
Marriages Act. Requires payment.

* Mississippi Territory in the War of 1812
(Book - Genealogical.com) :
This is the major historical and genealogical source for
information on the part played by the Mississippi
Territory in the campaign against the British and the
Creeks during the War of 1812. Mrs. Rowland's detailed
historical narrative discusses all the major conflicts in
the Mississippi theater, commencing with the Battle of
Burnt Corn in July 1813 and the massacre at Fort
Mims--which resulted in Andrew Jackson's assumption of
command--through the Battle of Horseshoe Bend to the
legendary Battle of New Orleans. Of greater genealogical
interest, however, is the book's "Rolls of Mississippi
Commands in the War of 1812," a 76-page section giving
the names and ranks of upwards of 7,500 soldiers and
officers.
