"The Nash Family, or Records of the Descendants of Thomas Nash of New Haven, CT, 1640." Rev. Sylvester Nash, A.M. Hartford: Press of Case, Tiffany & Co. 1853. This is a genealogy of the descendants of Thomas and Margery (Baker) Nash, emigrants to New Haven, CT, ca. 1640. Rev. Nash did not carry forward female lines, beyond the Nash daughter who married into another surname, and that couple's children. However, I have many female lines carried forward, through the project I am doing on this family, so what I can't find in the book may be found in my data-base. I am willing to search there, too, for those who wish. This book covers many states, as the Nash family moved westward, beginning in 1640 and ending in 1853, with publication of this book. New England states in which Nashes are found in this book include CT, MA and VT. Midwestern states in which Nashes are found in this book include IN, IL, and OH. DLR
