5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for specified families, September 30, 2003

This review is from: (350) Early Families of Herkimer County, New York : Descendants of the Burnetsfield Patentees (Paperback)
This is a great book! It's jam-packed with solid facts. I was interested in th Spohn (Spoon) family, and found 3 pages of info related to the first 5 generations, starting with Hendrick Spohn, a Palatine who came to New York about 1709. I also bought a 2 volume "compendium" which had less than one page on the same family. This book is more focused on fewer families.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource for Family Research, April 18, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: (350) Early Families of Herkimer County, New York : Descendants of the Burnetsfield Patentees (Paperback)
This book is excellent for anyone researching family members who lived in Stone Arabia, Fort Plain, German Flats, Schoharie, St. Johnsville and Herkimer, New York, from 1720-1799. The majority of these German speaking families (known as Mohawk Valley Palatines) came to America, in a fleet of 10 ships that left England in 1709 and arrived in New York in 1710. A researcher will not find everything they want/need [example, spouse may be listed but without birth date, birth location or, in the case of a wife, her father's name]; however, the information included in the book far outweighs this disappointment. I highly recommend this book as a great source of historical information of early Palatine families who settled in the Mohawk Valley of New York.
