The purpose of this database is to shed light on the diverse individuals who contributed to the Marblehead community. Written in an accessible narrative form, the database is built for genealogists, researchers, students, and any interested individuals. Visitors to the site can browse the entries or search by name or keyword. Images of source materials are included whenever possible.
