Church Record Sunday: NEHGS Article Archive

While I was researching sources for an article yesterday, I came across the New England Historic Genealogical Society (NEHGS) Article Archive at http://www.newenglandancestors.org/research/services/8658.asp.

NEHGS is a terrific resource that has a lot to offer members including databases, an academic journal and magazine and research services. They also offer some free items on their website, including their Article Archive.

These educational articles cover lots of different subjects, including church records. Just some of the articles featured include:
