Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Rolls of Membership of the New England Historic Genealogical Society: Corrected to July 1, 1898
An attempt is made to give the principal learned societies and orders to which our honorary and corresponding members belong. The well known English societies and orders are designated by the customary letters, and the American societies by the abbreviations used in the catalogue of Harvard University. We have one French and two Italian corresponding members, all Of whom belong to many learned societies, too numerous to mention, but I give the names in English of such orders conferred upon them as appear in the Almanach de Gotha.
The date preceding a name is that of the year of the member's election. In the case of a Life Member two dates are given, the first being that of the year when the life membership began, and the second, in parenthesis, that of entrance into the Society. Where a membership had ceased and has subsequently been re newed by election, the later date only will appear.
