MA Vital Records to 1850



To the best of my knowledge, I've checked every published Town/City Vital Records to 1850 in Massachusetts. If I missed any records, please let me know.
I've entered any listing I found for the name Gilligan and variations in spelling. The biggest surprise for me was the amount of Gilligans I had found in Weymouth.

Please bear in mind that not all towns have been recorded.

Note: C.R. stands for Cemetery Record. G.R. stands for Gravestone Record.
