Essential source for Sublett / Sublette genealogy
About this book:
In 1963, the Detroit Society for Genealogical Research published a series of articles by Cameron Allen, "The Sublett (Soblet) Family of Manakintown, King William Parish, Virginia," chronicling the arrival of Abraham Soblet and his family in the New World in 1700, and the first several generations of their descendants.
Through the 1980s, these articles were collected and reprinted in book form, with additional notes and research added by Donald Jackson Sublette. Ultimately, a seventh edition was published in 1994, comprising all of Sublette's updates and a new index.
In 2000 and 2003, The American Genealogist published two new articles by Cameron Allen, focusing on the family's Huguenot ancestors in Europe before 1700: "The Soblets of the European Refuge" and "Ancestral Table of Suzanne Brian, Wife of Abraham Soblet."
This 45th Anniversary edition collects all of Cameron Allen's articles on the Soblet/Sublett/Sublette family for the first time, the result of more than four decades of research, along with a new Preface explaining the author's interest in Huguenot genealogy.
With more than 1,000 footnotes and an index of names, this book is the essential starting point for all researchers of Soblet/Sublett/Sublette family history.
