We are excited to announce a new database: The New Hampshire Genealogical Record. This database has been made available through partnership with the New Hampshire Society of Genealogists. The 30 volumes of this database contain 135,321 records and names, and 6,412 pages. The New Hampshire Genealogical Record was published by the New Hampshire Genealogical Society from Vol. 1, No. 1 (July 1903) to Vol. 7, No. 2 (April 1910). After a lengthy hiatus, it was resumed in 1990 by the New Hampshire Society of Genealogists with Vol. 7, No. 3. Volumes 1-7 are known as the “Old Series” and volumes 7 and up are the “New Series.”

The Journal captures a wealth of information for genealogists: vital records, probate records, bible records, headstone records, and memorials. It also includes well-documented family histories and genealogical articles covering hundreds of families with New Hampshire ties. Published articles include compiled genealogy, source records, and book reviews.

The name index portion of this database is based on the Journal Index listed at the end of each whole number volume that was published with such an index, along with a new index prepared by volunteers for volumes not originally indexed. Volumes will be added as their indexes become available.

We want to thank our volunteer, Sam Sturgis for all of his work on this database! If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, please reach out to our Database Volunteer Coordinator, Zobeida, at zobeida.chaffee-valdes@americanancestors.org.

This database is available to all American Ancestors members.
