Revised Memoir of Edward Rawson:

The Revised Memoir of Edward Rawson, Secretary of the Colony of Massachusetts Bay, 1650-1686; With Genealogical Notices of His Descendants, by Ellery Bicknell Crane, 1875, is an important resource for those of us interested in the descendants of Secretary Rawson. Unfortunately, many of us do not own a copy of this tome and so, while we may gain access to the information contained there in, we are unlikely to have good copies of the plates. Here, through the good graces of Richard Smith and Carolyn Wood, are as many as I am able to present at this time.
