Clarence Almon Torrey's New England Marriages Prior to 1700 is the best index to the early colonial period in existence. This worthy supplement to Torrey incorporates corrections, new discoveries, significant new biographical detail, or deletions from the original canon which have surfaced since Torrey's death in 1962. Since these new discoveries and corrections tend to make their way in the periodical literature more frequently than anywhere else, this supplement is predominantly an index to the major genealogical journals published since 1960. Users of the original Torrey work will find this supplement absolutely indispensable, since their New England research cannot be considered complete without it.
