Book Description

John Ulrich Spahr (1709-1770) was born in Putmiga about two miles from Basel, Switzerland. He descended from an old Swiss-german family. He married Margaret Seyler Spahr and they were the parents of twelve children, two of whom were born in America. In 1749 the family immigrated to America and settled in Pennsylvania where they lived at least twelve years. The family eventually moved to Virginia and from there the children and descendants settled in Tennessee, Kentucky, West Virginia, Ohio and other parts of the United States.

The Genealogy Annual is a comprehensive bibliography of the year's genealogies, handbooks, and source materials. It is divided into three main sections.

GUIDES AND HANDBOOKS-includes reference and how-to books for doing research on specific record groups or areas of the U.S. or the world. GENEALOGICAL SOURCES BY STATE-consists of entries for genealogical data, organized alphabetically by state and then by city or county. The Genealogy Annual, the core reference book of published local histories and genealogies, makes finding the latest information easy. Because the information is compiled annually, it is always up to date. No other book offers as many citations as The Genealogy Annual; all works are included. You can be assured that fees were not required to be listed.
