The town of Tisbury, Dukes County, Massachusetts, was established July 8, 1671, from common land, and the name was then changed from its original Middletown. The vital records give births, marriages and deaths spanning the years 1666 to 1850. In addition to names and dates, these records include additional information (when known) such as parentage, spouse, occupation, children, and cause of death. A list of sources is provided; when known, specific sources are keyed to the entries in the body of the book. This work was compiled by various individuals and organizations at various times, combining information from town, church, and private records with cemetery inscriptions and extracts from county records.
