With 14 volumes now available, I am providing details about each of the nine most recently released volumes in the William Doallarhide’s State Name Lists Series. A few days ago I gave details about the Florida edition. Here we examine Hawaii Name Lists 1700s-2011, with a selection of National Name Lists, 1600s – Present. Currently, there are nine new names lists books, and we are providing details on each.
Hawaii Name Lists may be one of the shorter books in the series, but is no less important for those with ancestors who lived in Hawaii. With nearly one hundred name lists provided, and ample information dating back hundreds of years, Hawaii is not shorter on useful information than any other state and is a critical part of the entire name lists collection.
In this book, names lists are detailed in the following database categories:
- Early Island Census Records
- Court Records
- Directories
- State Militia Lists
- State Veterans & Pensioners Lists
- Tax Lists
- Vital Records
- Voter Lists
Here are some interesting notes taken from the databases descriptions in the book:
– “The Kingdom of Hawaii censuses began in 1795, but only a few name lists, mostly school censuses from 1840, 1847, and 1866 have survived. Actual censuses were taken in 1878, 1890, and 1896, all extant for all islands.
– “Early tax lists may include dowager widows, or maiden women who own property subject to taxation.”
The contents of the District of Columbia section of the guide include:
- Hawaii Name Lists
- Hawaii Historical Timeline
- Introduction to Hawaii’s Censuses & Name Lists
- Bibliography of Hawaii Name Lists, 1700s-2011
Not only does this volume give a detailed bibliography of Name Lists available for the state, but links to websites, FHL book & microfilm numbers, archive references, maps, and key historical information make this volume invaluable to the researcher looking to extend their lines and fill in the family tree.
