We have a collection of books, magazines, newspaper articles and other material that reside in Chace-Cory House. This is a listing of THS_Resources-June2012 that may be perused at CCH with an appointment.
We have extremely few genealogy resources. If you are researching a Tiverton-area ancestor, look through this guide to help you: Tiverton Genealogy Guide. Please note since the date of this document, all the resources listed under the Essex Public Library are now in the Tiverton Public Library. Essex is no longer a library; the Tiverton Public Library (www.tivertonlibrary.org) is located at 34 Roosevelt Avenue, off of Bulgarmarsh Road (Rte. 177) just east of the intersection of Stafford and Crandall Roads (Rte. 81).
For those wishing to research the history of an historic house, this page gives you tips on how to do it. It is fascinating to read the original deed of your property: not only who built it, but how it was bounded (oak tree, pile of stones, stone wall, property owned by, etc.).
