Description
This book had its origin in the desire of the compiler to know something of his own family history. The purpose of compiling it was formed in boyhood, after his father's death 3 and the first crude notes which he committed to paper, containing the facts which had been treasured up in his mother's very retentive memory, are yet preserved. The occasion of meeting with any aged relative was always improved to add something to the inn formation already secured, and the swelling bulk of the carefully kept notes, when further interlineations and additions seemed inadmissible, made repeatedly necessary the task of transcribing and rearranging them, each time in a new and larger volume. The series of books which have been thus laboriously filled finds an end in the volume which is now presented.
