## About this book

Between 1785 and 1825, Americans of European descent increasingly documented their familial relationships, which had been gradually developing in a colonial and post-colonial setting. Some calligraphic and genealogical artists found ways to memorialize these ties for current and future generations and began to advertise their talents. Decorated watercolor and embroidered registers appeared in everyday households and were occasionally listed in probate inventories. Many were made by school children. This book celebrates the beauty and craftsmanship of this unique group of New England genealogical records
