    Captain Tillinghast kept a diary for several years, in which he wrote in detail about the daily weather, and in less detail about his comings and goings, town and church events, and deaths and burials. It provides us a window into the culture of the day. This diary has been edited by Cherry Fletcher Bamberg and published by the RI Genealogical Society.
