In Search of Missing Friends

The Search for missing friends : Irish immigrant advertisements placed in
the Boston pilot / Ruth-Ann M. Harris and Donald M. Jacobs, editors. (Boston : Published
in cooperation with the Irish Studies Program and the Dept. of History at Northeastern
University by the New England Historic Genealogical Society, 1989-)
This is a wonderful resource. I have copied (mostly in abstract form) the ads relating to
Stantons.
There are 5 volumes; I haven't got complete notes on the last 2 vols.
