I agree, it would be lovely to have source material more readily available.   In the meantime, for those who do not have access to the Ferrar microfilm,  go to LVA Index http://www.lva.lib.va.us/siteindex/index.htm, scroll down to Colonial Rcords Project and enter Ferrar for online copies of some papers.   Yes, slow going, but most research is.

Ferrar Papers and can get to Cambridge in about 100 minutes by car. What is,  
however, important is that such sources should be as widely available as  possible 
in a readily legible format.
