    Description

    This listing is for a genealogy booklet released prior to 1934 by Jesse Montgomery Seaver, who was operating as the American Historical-Genealogical Society. Modern genealogists take these family histories with a grain of salt, as Mr. Seaver was known to mix contrived information in with the factual sort. In fact, Jesse Seaver's family history business was shut down in 1934 by the US Post office and he subsequently faced jail time for the deception.
    All of that to say, this is a fascinating bit of history! This listing is for the Jackson Family Records from Seaver. It's a 61-page booklet with a paper cover and stapled binding. It measures approximately 9 inches by 6 inches. It's in acceptable vintage condition. The cover is loose and there is toning to the paper. Also not writing on the cover.
