The purpose of this work is to present a single alphabetical index based on the General Index to Deeds No. 1, 1797-1867, that was created in the style known as a Campbell Index. In other words, the purpose here is not to validate the index but to resequence it. What typically results from a Campbell Index is a jumble that requires users to flip back and forth between groups of pages throughout the entire index to seek out where various groups are continued elsewhere.This present index is largely made up of entries to over 7,000 deeds, being either: bargain and sales, bills of sale, or trust deeds. Of additional interest may be: thirty-eight polls for the election of various officials; twenty-two apprenticeships; a bastard bond; thirty-six emancipation or manumission deeds; forty-one insolvents; forty-six marriage contracts or settlements; sixteen bonds for ministers to solemnize the rites of matrimony; bonds for sheriff, constable, tobacco inspector, or Commissioner of the Revenue; references to military service; or other non-routine items.Some deficiencies in the original index have been addressed here. As a result, over 1,500 additional index entries were added by the compiler over the original courthouse index. References to plats that did not appear in the original index have been added.2022, 8¿x11, paper, alphabetical, 354 pp.

The Psychogram was a periodical that ran from 1916-1977 at Greystone Park Psychiatric Hospital in Morris Plains, New Jersey. It provided the reader with information regarding the workings of a psychiatric hospital from the unique perspective of patients, who provide insight about their experiences and understanding of their treatment. Patients shared poetry, book reviews, and letters to staff. Staff also wrote articles for families that had relatives staying at the hospital to provide them with information regarding treatments and the general welfare of the institution. According to Sullivan, The Psychogram helped to dispel misconceptions that families had in relation to the treatment of the mentally ill within an institutional setting. Examining these unique voices of the patients and staff demonstrate how therapeutic programs changed and how occupational programs such as The Psychogram laid the groundwork for the future of the hospital.2021, 6x9, paper, 122 pp.

This work presents marriage records for Essex County, Virginia for the period 1884 to 1921. It continues publication of marriage records after those by this compiler and Suzanne P. Derieux for the period 1850-1883. The major difference here is that the format is condensed to include only the pertinent data rather than reproducing the printed form of either the marriage register, marriage license, or related record pieces.The critical notice to users is that Marriage Register 1, that is titled and runs 1804-1921, contains for the subject period the data for when the marriage was planned. That said, the procedure was that when the groom and bride applied for a marriage license, the court clerk recorded the planned information in the register. This included statistics about the parties: their marital status, age, race, place of birth, place of residence, and the names of their parents. At that time the couple was issued a license that was to be completed by an officiating minister with the actual date of marriage, place of marriage, and signed by the officiating minister. This actual information was not updated in the previously-created register. Because of this, there is routinely a difference between the register information and the license information.Data are presented in a standard sequence that is similar to what is found in the register: name of parties, groom to bride; notation as to race when non-white, i.e. (C) for colored or (F) for free, etc.; date of marriage (planned if no marriage license survives, else updated from license); place of marriage; page and line of Marriage Register 1 in which the data are found; ages of the groom and bride; marital status of the groom and bride; place of birth of the groom and bride; place of residence of the groom and bride; parents of the groom and bride; occupation of the groom; minister officiating the marriage; and remarks, if any, including notation of parental or guardian consent.Several facsimile reprints of original marriage documents and an index to full-names, places and occupations add to the value of this work.2021, 8¿x11, paper, index, 252 pp
