Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a record of all elected representatives who served in the New York Assembly, from 1777â"the inception of the state governmentâ"to 1852. The author painstakingly researched original documents to produce a remarkable compilation of the names, birthplaces, occupations, weights, and ages of the representatives to emerge from the state's 62 counties. The information contained in this book offers a historic look at population distribution, immigration patterns, and the dominant occupations and industries in the state from New York City to the rural counties. The book also unveils a wealth of data on the foreign countries of origin for the representatives' ancestors, a telling demographic that reflects immigration patterns at the dawn of a nation. The author has done an extraordinary job of showcasing the ancestry of these representatives, almost all of whom traced their heritage back to the British Isles or continental Europe, with just one representative claiming Prussian ancestry. This book will be an essential resource for historians and anyone fascinated by the development of New York State.
