- Carroll's Heritage--Essays on the Architecture of a Piedmont Maryland County
By Joe Getty. What is fact and what is fiction about the early history of Carroll County? Popular beliefs about 18th century life in this region are sometimes part of a mythology that gives an inaccurate view of our past. Using early buildings as a documentary resource, these essays show how the settlers established farmsteads using the vernacular architectural traditions of the Pennsylvania German and Tidewater English cultures. Geography, log construction techniques, and ethnic customs influenced the details of these early buildings. Homes of the Winchester, Erb, Haines, Royer, Arter, Frizzel and other local families are described. Out of these traditions, a regional farmhouse style evolved that dominated the architecture of the 19th century. This book is an illustrated guide to this pattern of architectural development and provides insight about the daily life of the early settlers. $12 Return to top of page

- Maryland German Church Records
A series of translations of 18th century German church records in Maryland. Series Editor: Frederick S. Weiser. One of the most valuable genealogical resources for German families residing in Piedmont Maryland is the church records of the 18th century congregations. These records are sometimes the only source that provides information about family members. Many thousands of German people lived alongside the British settlers of North America in nearly all of the colonies which became the United States of America. The primary source of genealogical information about them is the records kept by the pastors of the Lutheran and the Reformed churches.
Following a custom set down in the midst of the continental Reformation controversy, the clergy recorded births and baptisms, marriages, persons who were confirmed, persons who announced themselves for and then received Holy Communion, and deaths and burials. Many of these church records are not readily accessible to genealogists or the general public. Some are stored in church vaults or historical libraries where they are rarely shown to the public because of their fragile condition. Furthermore, the information concealed in these records is frequently difficult for the layman to interpret because of poor handwriting and the idiosyncrasies of the German language used in this country. Some of the church records in this series have never before been translated, while others have inaccurate or misleading translations.
Even though they include far from all the vital records of that part of the population they served, these German church records are a remarkable source of information. To make the riches of this now almost totally unavailable body of data from German churches in Maryland easily accessible and useful to researchers, a series of these records is being published. Each will be issued with an introduction, a comprehensive index, and occasional pertinent illustrations.
