This series collects the quarterly journals of the Essex Society of Genealogists into convenient yearly volumes. Essex County, Massachusetts, is a region of genealogical interest to many people across the country, and the Society's journal has been an important source of information for its subscribers since it was founded in 1981. Recurring highlights of the journals include the "TEG Feature Article," "It Happened in Essex County" (local history), "Research in Progress" (genealogical information), "Our Readers Write," "The Ahnentafel" (family generational charts), "Queries," "Moments in History," and a few delightful illustrations.
