The
Spring 2013 edition of The Nova Scotia Genealogist with the lovely photo of the
painting of the West Hants Historical Society Museum in Windsor, Nova Scotia is
on the cover.
An
article entitled Visit to West Hants Historical Society by J. Fralic-Brown on
page 19 of the edition tells you all that you want to know what the museum holds
on its shelves and in filing cabinets.
The
main article is The Putman Family of Massachusetts and Nova Scotia by D. Armauda.
The
author says that the complete Putman family history has never been written to
his knowledge, and we just get a glimpse of his work in this article.
He
has everything sourced, and a very good genealogy explained in very easy to
understand terms as he traces them from England, to Massachusetts to Nova
Scotia.
They
have included the latest books in the Reference Department of the Spring Garden
Road Memorial Library, at the GANS Office Library, and the Scotiabank Family History,
Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21 in Halifax.
