Half Century At The Bay 1636-1686

By George Sheldon

"Half Century At The Bay 1636-1686" explores the historical context and familial background of John Williams, later known as "the Redeemed Captive." This study by George Sheldon delves into the heredity and early environment that shaped Williams' life during a pivotal period in the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

Beginning in 1636, the book traces the experiences and challenges faced by settlers in the colony over the next fifty years, highlighting the societal structures, religious beliefs, and interactions with the Native American population. It provides valuable insights into the lives of early colonists and the factors influencing their development.

Sheldon's work is a valuable resource for those interested in colonial history, genealogy, and the lives of individuals who played a part in shaping early American society.
