by Thomas Patrick Hughes
Description
Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.
HE purpose of this work is, principally, to register in a convenient and simple form the' pedigree of any one person, and thus record for all time many important facts in the history of families which would otherwise be lost.
Another primary object is to publish here the ancestry of a person as complete as it is known, as a means of obtaining additional information regarding it.
It is also designed to be a convenient work of reference, to Show the origin of the various American families.
However indifferent some may affect to be regarding this question of ancestry, those who have a good pedigree will usually have a natural pride in it.
Many lineages must of necessity contain nothing but simple records of uneventful generations, but they will preserve facts of great interest to descendants which would otherwise in many cases be lost in the history of a family.
The plan of the work is somewhat Similar in idea to the well-known English works, but altered to Suit the conditions of American society, and in detail is as follows.
