Vol. 1 The Peer Family in North America: Jacob & Anne Peer, Immigrants from Sussex Co. New Jersey to Upper Canada in 1796, a study of the first two generations (including documents, maps and photos) by Lorine McGinnis Schulze is scheduled for publication April 2009.
Volume 1 contains narrative (footnoted) chapters on Jacob Peer Sr, and each of his children listed above. 32 documents (wills, land petitions, land records, etc) are included in this volume, as well as maps and family group charts.
Subsequent volumes are in process for each individual in Generation 2 (Jacob & Anne's children) and their descendants. Peer descendants will want to purchase Volume 1 plus the specific Volume containing details and records of your next ancestor and descendants. An order form will be linked to this page as soon as the book is ready for purchase.
Interested descendants may sign up for notification of publication and updates by writing to PeerFamilyBookATgmail.com (replace AT with @)
Include your name, and the Volumes you are interested in (Vols 1-9). |
At this point in the documentation process I am calling on submissions of documents. If you are a Peer descendant, I encourage you to submit your photographs (beore 1900 only please) and other documents or documentation on your lines. If you submit records which are unknown to me, I will use them in the Peer book with full credit to you as the source. Please understand that after 20 years of research there is a good chance I may already have what you submit, and if so, your name will not be used in the credits.
In order to help descendants figure out if their family is currently in the book, I have put indexes online for each of the Peer family groups that will be in my book.
