Have you missed buried treasure in your family history search? This oft forgotten record of 491 volumes is a goldmine and may be the key to your family history happiness! Knowledge of this treasure is a MUST for genealogy researchers.

If you have family who lived between 1740 & 1850 in New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Michigan, and Wisconsin your ancestors may be mentioned in the Draper Manuscript Collection. This record set is predominately on microfilm, but can be found around the country (a listing of all libraries with a full set is within the handout). The information about these records is scattered across the internet, yet this handout includes much of it as well as links to pertinent websites. IF you are researching family in this time and place and haven't looked at this record, you may have missed something crucial to your family history research!
