Family Histories and Documents

For many years, the children of Rachel and Gideon DuChaine endeavored to compile historical documents. On this page are links to these documents as they exist today. As you will see, it was quite time-consuming to write letters to various courthouses, churches, historical societies as well as taking road trips - all in the pursuit of documentation. With the advent of computers, the internet, and the website Ancestry.com it has become much easier to research and compile historical information. Many of our departed family members are now recorded on the public website, FindAGrave.com.
