These volumes contain a complete, verbatim transcription of the
town records of Plymouth, Massachusetts for the years 1636 to 1783.
They record all the formal business of the town, such as town
meetings, elections, laying out of roads, and land grants by the
town; vital records were kept in separate books and are not
included here. These records begin early in the life of the town
and continue down through the end of the American Revolution. They
provide a quite detailed picture of life at the time. Here you will
find the local residents registering their cattle marks, being
elected hog-reeve, or to some other minor town post, receiving
permission to set up fishing stages or erect a fence, listed as
voting at the town meeting, receiving a grant of land or cattle,
assisting in the care of widows and orphans, having a road laid out
past their property, and all manner of other interesting things.
These records can be very helpful because they name a great many
people, some of whom probably do not show up in many other records.
There is a complete index in each volume.
