Hi,

I am wondering if some kind NEHGS member would help me out. I am searching for records of my HECKBERT ancestors who migrated to the Middlesex County MA area (from Prince Edward Island). I'm not a NEHGS member, but was able to use a search engine on their website seeking references to HECKBERT in The New England Historical Genealogical Register. There were 4 results, but I can't access the results without a membership. At this point in time, I am unable to join, but I do have access to a collection of the Registers at a local provincial museum archives.

I would appreciate knowing in which issues (month and year) of the Register to look for the HECKBERT information. The collection of Registers date back to around 1850 but they sit high on the archives shelves so I will need physical assistance to access them and the only way I would be able to find the information would be to take each journal or register and check the index. I am guessing the Museum staff would not be thrilled to help me out with this task, but would be much happier if I requested specific issues to look at.

Thanks in advance.
