Genealogy Room

We have a wonderful resource for historians and genealogists at the Taft Public Library in Mendon, Massachusetts. In our archives, available on the first floor of the library in the Lorna Rhodes Genealogy Room are...

• Binders with information from Mendon's cemeteries.
• History of Mendon and many other Massachusetts towns.
• Vital statistics from most Massachusetts towns dating back to beginning 1800s.
• Genealogies of Mendon families along with bound histories of early settlers. (Because Mendon was the 'mother town', families of Blackstone, Grafton, Hopedale, Milford, Millville, Northbridge, Upton, and Uxbridge may have roots here.)

Anyone coming into our library to research the archives are reminded to bring notebooks and a digital camera.
