Discover a detailed portrait of a notable Irish-British lineage.
This edition compiles family chronicles, wills, and biographical sketches that trace the Palmer family from Rahin, County Kildare, to their connections in Boston, New York, and Europe.
Two sections weave together lineage and life: a rich collection of genealogical records, wills, and appendices; plus sermons and memorial materials that illuminate the era’s culture and faith. The book presents primary documents alongside narrative notes to frame the family’s history in a clear, accessible way.
- Track births, marriages, and deaths across generations, with place names and dates clarified.
- See how property, titles, and legacies were handled in wills and legal records.
- Read excerpts of sermons and commemorations that provide historical context and tone.
- Explore the evolving story of a transatlantic family during the 18th and 19th centuries.
Ideal for readers of genealogical research, local Irish history, and people tracing family connections to Rahin, Ireland, or the Palmer line in America.
