US genealogy collections: new & updated, 16-31 October

Below you'll find my summary of the new and updated United States records released by the major family history database suppliers since the middle of the month. The previous listing was published on 15 October (see blogpost.)

These regular summaries of recent releases are designed primarily to help family historians whose ancestors and extended family emigrated from Ireland to North America. But they will be of use to any genealogists researching in the USA.

Unless otherwise stated, the figures in parenthesis reflect the number of records uploaded to a new collection.
