DEXTER GENEALOGY 1642–1904 BEING A HISTORY OF THE DESCENDANTS OF
RICHARD DEXTER OF MALDEN, MASSACHUSETTS, FROM THE NOTES OF JOHN
HAVEN DEXTER AND ORIGINAL RESEARCHES. By ORRANDO PERRY DEXTER, M.
A., Oxon. Arranged by HENRY L. MILLS. Press of J. J. LITTLE & CO.,
Astor Place, New York, 1904. 12mo. pp. 279. Ill.
Richard Dexter came from Ireland, and belonged to a family which from
the beginning of the twelfth century has been prominent in Irish
history. The genealogy, therefore, is prefaced by a chapter on “Early
Irish Records Relating to the Dexter Family.” Mr. Mills has well
performed the labor of arranging the materials which came into his
hands, the authorities for the statements in them being indicated in a
table of references made by Orrando Perry Dexter. The good index, the
convenient size of the book, its letterpress and binding, are all
mentionable points. The illustrations are two in number, one being a
coat of arms in color. ***

THE CHURCHILL FAMILY IN AMERICA. COMPILERS: GARDNER ASAPH CHURCHILL,
NATHANIEL WILEY CHURCHILL. Editor and Associate Compiler: REV.
GEORGE M. BODGE. Published by the family of GARDNER A. CHURCHILL.
Boston, 1904. Large 8vo. pp. xv + 707. Ill.
The Plymouth branch, the Connecticut branch, and the Manhattan branch
of the Churchill family constitute the three divisions of this work,
followed by an appendix of names unconnected with the above lines, and
preceded by Mr. Bodge’s preface which concludes with “The Churchill
Family in England.” Mr. Bodge explains that, owing to the death of the
compilers, the task of preparing their collections for the press was
left to him, a labor which, as would be expected, he has ably
performed. The plan on which the genealogy is arranged is that of the
New England Historic Genealogical Society, in its organ, the
“Register,” by means of which the immense mass of notes and
correspondence entrusted to Mr. Bodge have assumed the lucid order
which alone renders a genealogy serviceable. There is a most carefully
prepared index of nearly ninety pages. The illustrations are fine,
chiefly portraits. The book is printed on good paper and bound in
black cloth.

GENEALOGICAL SKETCHES OF THE WOODBURY FAMILY, ITS INTERMARRIAGES AND
CONNECTIONS. By CHARLES LEVI WOODBURY. Edited by his sister, E. C.
D. O. WOODBURY, Manchester, N. H.: Printed by the JOHN B. CLARKE
CO., 1904. Square 4to. pp. 251. Ill.
The sketches are introduced by a memoir of Judge Woodbury, the
compiler. The genealogical value of the work is apparent from the fact
that, beside the Woodbury pedigree, it includes those of such families
as the Quincys, the Palgraves, the Wendells, the Clapps, the De Kays,
the Willetts, the Perkinses, and others. Though left unfinished and
inaccessible at Judge Woodbury’s death, the sketches are nevertheless
presented here in a nearly completed form, though it has been found
impossible to fill omissions occasioned by the loss of some of the
original papers. The mental energy, the skill and the humor
characteristic of the compiler will be recognized in these pages,
which, though not intended for the public, will be attractive to many
outside of the readers for whom they were designed. Paper, print and
binding are good. There is no index. ***
