Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ancestry of Benjamin Harrison, President of the United States of America 1889-1893: In Chart Form Showing Also the Descendants of William Henry Harrison, President of the United States of America in 1841 and Notes on Families Related The following work, for which the undersigned alone is responsible, it having proceeded neither from the suggestion, nor under the supervision, of any one else, is published for its merits as an attempt to show, not merely the paternal line, but all the other forefathers of an individual. The actual forefathers being arranged in a chart, data which have been found as to the collateral branches of some of the families are included, with the evidence for the direct lines, in this Introduction and the notes which follow it, headed by the various names, and an effort has been made to give an account, complete to date, of the Irwin and of the Ramsey family. It is not pretended that the pedigree adds to the distinction of a man who has been President of the United States of America. That office, to be sure, is neither the apex of a system of caste, like a European king's, nor the object of eighteen centuries' veneration, like the Pope's, nor the control of the lives and property of millions, like the Czar's or the ruler of China's; but, at the head of such a nation as ours has become, it is one of the very greatest positions on the earth. Its constitutional functions affect double the extent of territory that Charlemagne ruled. Surrounding the incumbent with no luxury, and rigidly subjecting him to law, it nevertheless resembles, with its unpretentious title, its actual power, its operation through a Senate, its preponderance in a hemisphere, that of the early Roman emperors, before the abrogation of republican forms. Few contemporary lives are as much studied as those culminating, or suggested to culminate, in the White House; and, as the ancestry of any man is a fact, important or otherwise, in his history, it is supposed that, while genealogists will value any work showing how far in each line, male and female, the ancestors of a living American can be traced, other people will be interested in such data concerning a President. The paternal line of the one whose term ended on the 4th of last March is unique from the standing anterior to the Revolutionary War, and the service during it and since. Moreover, while it is rare, in this young country, to find, even among the Presidents, any person all of whose great-grandfathers were Americans, he descends from many families known to have been here nearly two hundred years before his birth. This makes such a work relating to Benjamin Harrison a contribution to the genealogy of many of his fellow-citizens. All the known ancestors who lived in America are mentioned in the chart.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Genealogical History of the Family of Montgomery: Including the Montgomery Pedigree Compiled as this has been, away from the homes and contemporary records of our ancestors, it must necessarily be in many particulars incomplete. I trust it will be found, however, that good use has been made of all the authorities with in my reach on this side of the Atlantic, which in any degree bear on the History of the Montgomerys. And I hope, that at some future period, some member of the family with more time and opportunity than myself, will not only supply all that may in this be found lacking, but will also write a full history of the family in all its branches, to which I will be well content that this effort should serve but as an introduction.
