Eastern Shore Mostly Trusted Research

Date: 1600 [unknown]
Location: Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia Eastern Shore Peninsula

This page lists who are known people who did responsible genealogical research on people and families of the Eastern Shore. Not all of them cite primary sources and not all of their conclusions hold up, but, in some cases, this is the best that we can do for sourcing our collected families.

Eventually, we will produce a "hierarchy of trusted sources," based on our judgment (which is admittedly biased, subject to dispute).
