Book Genealogical and Personal History of the Allegheny Valley  Pennsylvania  Vol  1  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Genealogical and Personal History of the Allegheny Valley Pennsylvania Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by John Woolf Jordan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-29 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Genealogical and Personal History of the Allegheny Valley, Pennsylvania, Vol. 1 Unique in conception and treatment, this work constitutes one of the most original and permanently valuable contributions ever made to the social history of an American com munity. In it are arrayed in a lucid and dignified manner all the important facts regarding the ancestry, personal careers and matrimonial alliances of those who, in each succeeding generation, have been accorded leading positions in social, professional and business life. It is not based upon, neither does it minister to, aristocratic prejudices and assumptions. On the contrary, its fundamental ideas are thoroughly American and democratic. The work everywhere conveys the lesson that distinction has been gained only by honorable public serv ice, or by usefulness in private station, and that the development and prosperity of the region Of which it treats have been dependent upon the character of its citizens, and in the stimulus which they have given to commerce, to industry, to the arts and sciences, to education and religion - to all that is comprised in the highest civilization of the present day - through a continual progressive development. The inspiration underlying the present work is a fervent appreciation of the truth so well expressed by Sir Walter Scott, that there is no heroic poem in the world but is at the bottom the life of a man. And with this goes a kindred truth, that to know a man, and rightly measure his character, and weigh his achievements, we must know whence he came, from what forbears he sprang. Truly as heroic poems have been written in human lives in the paths of peace as in the scarred roads of war. Such examples. In whatever line of endeavor, are of much worth as an incentive to those who come afterward, and as such' were never so needful to be written of as in the present day, when pessimism, forgetful of the Splendid lessons of the past, withholds its effort in the present, and views the future only with alarm.

This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Genealogical and Personal History of Western Pennsylvania, Vol. 1 The present work, "Genealogical and Personal History of Western Pennsylvania," presents in the aggregate an amount and variety of genealogical and personal information and portraiture unequalled by any kindred publication. No similar work concerning Western Pennsylvania has ever before been presented, and it contains a vast amount of ancestral history never before printed. The object, clearly defined and well digested, is to present in concise form the history of Western Pennsylvania Families of the Colonial Days. There are numerous voluminous histories of the State, making it unnecessary in this work to even outline its annals. What has been published, however, relates principally to civic life. The amplification necessary to complete the picture, old and nowaday, is what is supplied by these Genealogical and Personal Memoirs. In other words, while.others have written of the times, the province of this work is as a chronicle of the people who have made this magnificent region what it is. Unique in conception and treatment, this work constitutes one of the most original and permanently valuable contributions ever made to the social history of an American community. In it are arrayed in a lucid and dignified manner all the available facts regarding the ancestry, personal careers and matrimonial alliances of those who, in each succeeding generation, have been accorded leading positions in social, professional and business life. It is not based upon, neither does it minister to, aristocratic prejudices and assumptions. On the contrary, its fundamental ideas are thoroughly American and democratic.
