Excerpt from The Law of Adoption in the United States, and Especially in Massachusetts The new features of the act of 1876 may be briefly described as follows. In 1, it is enacted that an adoption by a married couple must have the consent of both, and makes the child the child and heir of both. It is also necessary that the child must be younger than the adopting parents, while by 10 it is provided that certain persons shall not be adopted by certain other persons. The prohibition is really directed against any attempt to upset natural relationships. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Before it proceeded, however, it commissioned this study from Whitmore to serve as a reference for the legislators. Written in two parts, the first contains the texts of laws and related cases from twenty-two states. He also includes a brief summary of relevant European statutes. Organized by topic, the second part describes how these laws compare and differ. Though written for a specific purpose, this study remains a valuable guide for the scholar of the history of adoption law or family law to all aspects of American adoption law during the nineteenth century.

Poor-Laws of Massachusetts and New York available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Excerpt from Poor-Laws of Massachusetts and New York: With Appendices Containing the United States Immigration and Contract-Labor Laws; July, 1895 The poor-laws of any single state cannot be adequate 1y considered apart from the laws of other and especially of adjacent states. For general purposes, however, it is not necessary to go into a detailed account of the laws of every state; this would lead to wearisome repetition. It may be said in general that the states have followed the example either of Massachusetts or of New York in their poor-relief legislation; that is, they have adopted either the town or the county system. The historical develop ment Of poor-relief legislation in Massachusetts and New York is presented as typical of that development in other states as well. The history and experience Of these two states is perhaps richer and more instructive than that of any others. They have had to face difficulties from an early period which have scarcely begun to make them selves felt even now in newer states removed from the sea-board especially with regard to immigration. New York as the port whence immigrants spread all over the country has had to deal with a oating class of foreign paupers, and with problems connected therewith peculiar to this state alone. The complications which enter into interstate relations, owing to the diversity of laws in the several states, have received peculiar exemplification in the relations existing between Massachusetts and New York.
