A Standard Reference for genealogists and historians of Delaware. Originally published in 1888, this work is a genealogist¿s history in that it is not a general interpretative history but a compendium of facts and names. Most of this work covers hundred (county sub-division) by hundred the early land owners, business owners, church leaders, county officials, and others. There are occasional sketches of early families.Originally published in two volumes, we include a third volume which gives a complete index. The original index left many of the names of persons and organizations buried in the text, typical of the personal histories of the late 19th century.
