Family Archives CD #175
Here you'll find more than 93,000 individuals referenced. The majority of the materials cover the years 1800 to 1850 and represent 76 of Ohio's 88 counties. What you can learn about each listed individual varies according to the original record, but this data offers a wide variety of important genealogical source materials. This information will help you locate a particular individual at a specific place and point in time. Learning a date and location from these records may help you find your ancestor in other genealogical records not necessarily included in this collection. In some cases, particularly when your ancestor's name appears in a marriage record, will, or deed, you will also be able to establish family relationships. If you do find one of your ancestors among these records, it is likely that you will find a connection to a family line from the thirteen original colonies -- the Ohio area was one of the first to be settled north of the Mason-Dixon line and west of the thirteen original colonies. With the added convenience of a name index spanning both volumes, Gateway to the West makes an excellent addition to any Ohio researcher's library. Records may not be comprehensive for the time and region covered.
This data set contains page images from the two-volume book Gateway to the West. Ruth Bowers and Anita Short compiled this book from over 350 articles that originally appeared in the Gateway to the West periodical, published in Ohio from 1967 to 1978. These books were provided by the Genealogical Publishing Company of Baltimore, Maryland. The Gateway to the West periodical offered a wide variety of important genealogical source materials, many of which would have otherwise been difficult for the average individual to access. Those materials included marriage records, indexes to estates, will abstracts, death, cemetery, and divorce records, indenture and apprenticeship records, baptisms, land grants, ministers' licenses, minutebooks of courts, deed abstracts, partition records, guardianships, and naturalization records.
