Cumbria - People who lived to 100 years of age 1664 - 1814, Book 929.094278 CUM
Well, this is certainly a very specific and very slim volume, not surprising given its subject matter. The list of 144 persons who lived to over 100 years of age in Cumbria comes from Magna Britannia Cumberland, Lysons, printed in 1816.
A simple alphabetical search by surname might give you more information than you bargained for.
You will get an exact date of burial, age at death, place of burial and sometimes extra information such as marital status or occupation.
IRELAND
The Gravestone Inscriptions of the Cathedral Cemetery of Cloyne, Co. Cork by Richard Henchion, Book COR 929.32 HEN
Monumental inscriptions or gravestones are one of the best and most interesting sources of family history information. This lovely book is divided into a number of sections. Firstly the external monuments take the form of most books of this type where the index to people and places is at the end, and the inscriptions are numbered to correspond with this. Following the actual inscriptions are notes which are full of extra family information. If you find one of your ancestors with an inscription in this graveyard, you are in luck. Following the notes are the intramural memorials which are set out in a similar way to the monuments. Finally there is a pictorial section of interesting drawings and photographs of people and related places, and inside the back cover is a large fold-out map of the cemetery with grave numbers.
It would be wonderful if all cemeteries had such a dedicated volume.
VICTORIA
List of Streets Victoria, State Electoral Office Victoria. Book, VIC 328.945 STA
Electoral rolls can be a difficult resource to wade through if you don't know the province or electoral subdivision you need to look at. This fat book lists all streets in Victoria in 1988, but appears to be very comprehensive and should take a lot of the hard work out of researching electoral rolls.
The book is an alphabetical list by street name, and the columns are headed Thoroughfare (street name), State district, State province and Subdivision.
At the end of the book is a separate listing of streets requiring further description, which appears to mean that perhaps each side of the street may be in a different subdivision, or even in a different shire.
