We have included over 90 volumes of the Official Register of the United States spanning the years of 1816 to 1959. These books include the names and salaries of all civil servants and in some cases members of the military as well.
For example in 1818 President James Monroe made $25,000 year, John Quincy Adams Secretary of the United States made $5,000 and a midshipman in the Navy earned $19 per month.
This is one of my most interesting finds and may be a new and interesting addition to your genealogy research.
