James Moody, creator of annapolisgenealogy.ca, describes his mission statement in this way:
“The families in Annapolis relevant to my interests include: Moody, Annis, Magranahan, Balcom, Phinney, Clark, Cushing, Banks, Sproul, Ogilvie, Godfrey, Ford, Tufts, Benjamin, Armstrong, Shafner, Walker, and Sutton.
We hope you find a home here in your efforts to research your Annapolis County ancestors. Our goal is to provide free access to historical records that provide insight into your ancestors in the county.”
A new life in a strange new land.
The French, Scottish, and English were the bulk of Annapolis County’s first settlers by the mid-1600s. Moody’s on-line collection of records is found here: https://annapolisgenealogy.ca/collections. Census records and other government documents are well-represented.
An invaluable resource, Annapolis County Cemetery Inscriptions, is dervived from the original research of Dr. Alan Marbles, updated and expanded in contemporary times by Denise J. Rice, and freely available on the site. There is no charge to use any of the records there.
