You don't need to be an Isham to enjoy this book,
By Patricia Isham Calef (San Francisco, California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: An index of the Ishams in England and America: Nine hundred years of history and genealogy (Hardcover)
I purchased this book directly from the author after searching for many, many years. He is a truly lovely man who took over the research from the original Isham geneaologist Brainnard. Mr. Edward Isham has provided so much information in a clear logical manner, that it is quite easy to trace your roots back five generations in just a few minutes. I highly urge anyone who is an Isham by birth or marriage to buy this book as an heirloom.It makes a wonderful wedding gift welcoming a new Isham into the fold, or a gift for a newborn Isham.

A very extensive genealogy,
By Steve Isham (Austin, Texas, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: An index of the Ishams in England and America: Nine hundred years of history and genealogy (Hardcover)
This book must have been a labor of love by Edward Isham, due the the great amount of detail, effort, and information put in. There is an extensive family history, including the origin of the family name, Isham, which came from Azo, the family patriarch, of Northamptonshire, England around 1050 AD. The book also includes very extensive family trees and interesting connections, such as an Isham who was an early law partner of Abraham Lincoln.This book is an ABSOLUTE MUST for any Isham family member, and is the perfect gift for any Isham family member. My mother ordered this book for me when it first printed in the mid-80s & I can't imagine not having it now. It is a great resource to use when I meet or know other Ishams, I can research how closely related to me they actually are!

Great History,

This review is from: An index of the Ishams in England and America: Nine hundred years of history and genealogy (Hardcover)
"Been looking for a copy of this for a long time as I am part of the Isham family (grandson of Wes Isham of Hamden MA Ishams), we had only 1 copy in the entire family since its release. This is an invaluable tool to have to keep the family history alive and well, thank you for making more copies available!!!"
