The Summer 2008 issue (Volume 9, Number 3) of New England Ancestors, published by the New England Historic Genealogical Society, arrived several weeks ago. Here is the Table of Contents for the articles and columns:

The Table of Contents for this issue of the magazine are online at http://www.newenglandancestors.org/publications/54.asp.

There are also Tables of Contents for several Volume 1 (2000), Volume 6 (2005), and all Volume 7, 8 and 9 issues at http://www.newenglandancestors.org/publications/97.asp. I'm not sure that non-members can see these pages or not.

It looks like the content for the feature articles and columns are available online for members since Volume 6 (2005). Note that these are individual articles and not the complete magazine.

I really enjoy reading this magazine because it provides "how-to" and repository summaries for one of my major areas of interest - New England. I was especially interested in the Maine articles in this issue, and the Western Massachusetts Families in 1790 project.
