About this title

Synopsis

This book presents a comprehensive collection of marriage intentions and records from various church and court sources in Boston, Massachusetts, spanning the years 1751 to 1828. Painstakingly compiled by Ezekiel Goldthwait, William Cooper, Charles Bulnch, and William Clark, this volume offers a captivating glimpse into the lives and relationships of Boston's inhabitants during a transformative period in American history. The records provide a wealth of genealogical data, including the names of individuals intending to marry, their occupations, and the dates and locations of their intended unions. Beyond its genealogical significance, this book sheds light on the social and cultural norms surrounding marriage in 18th-century Boston. The inclusion of both intentions and records allows researchers to trace the development of relationships and marriages within the community. The author's meticulous research and attention to detail make this book an invaluable resource for historians, genealogists, and anyone interested in the social fabric of early America. Through these marriage records, we gain insights into the lives of ordinary people, their hopes, and aspirations, providing a rich understanding of the human experience in the past.
