Additional Details

A sermon on the death of New Hampshire judge Henry Sherburne (1709-1767). It is perhaps most noteworthy for its later binding by the renowned Charles Munsell of Albany, NY, which traces 5 generations of matrilineal descent from Judge Sherburne to Catherine Langdon Parker Marvin (1846-1907) of Albany, who presumably commissioned the binding. Evans 10640.
