An Amateur Genealogist's Review of McBrier's Loucks Book,
By mikel2001 "mikel2001" (Woodbridge, VA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Loucks: Genealogy of the Loucks Family (Hardcover)
This book is, first, a genealogy of the descendants of Johann Dietreich Loucks (LAUX) (migrated GE > NY 1709) through 9 generations. It also includes all known Loucks' descendants as of the writing in 1940. The data supporting much of the genealogy (church records, etc.) is transcribed in an appendix to the book.Secondly, it has photographs, excerpts from other historical writings, and maps included in other parts of the book. Finally, it has a reproduction (in original printing) of the Reunion Volume issued by the Loucks Family Association held in York, PA in 1910. This includes some historical (Germany, France) statements dating back to 1100 AD. The data is pretty well researched, in my humble opinion, but there are minor errors, however those are documented in various Loucks/Laux fora on the Web. I would consider it a vital part of any Loucks/Laux researcher. Another, principally Canadian-focused and not as well documented, Loucks genealogy book is by Dale McIntosh (Loucks Family History, CS90.L62 1984). I have not found a commercial source for that book. |
