Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Ancestors I do believe that if all my ancestors had set down their lives in writing, and left them to posterity, many documents necessary to be known of those who both participate of their natural inclinations and humours, must in all probability run a not much different course, might have been given for their instruction and certainly it will be found much better for men to guide themselves by such observations as their father, grandfather, and great-grandfather might have delivered to them, than by those vulgar rules and examples which cannot in all points so exactly agree unto them. Therefore, Whether their life were private, and contained only precepts necessary to treat with their children, servants, tenants, kinsmen and neighbours, or employed abroad in the university, or study of the law, or in the court, or in the camp, their heirs might have benefited themselves more by them than by any else.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ancestors Some one has said that genealogy is the science of personal identification. Its Object is the discovery of legal evidence as to the identity of the individual, his relation to those who have preceded him and to those who may succeed him. In seeking our maternal ancestors we have not tried to follow the trail in the tangle of collaterals but have kept to the straight lines, and are now able to present good evidence of the identity of these ancestors and of their relation to us.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Know Your Ancestors Genealogy and history, theology and legend, are in termingled in such close affinity that the records of one support the credentials of the other - and in an analogous manner the history of a tribe or a race is often the record of a family. The consanguinty of a family name is recognized in our National Origins basis of the present Immigration law - and there are precedents in all nations and all times for the accept ance of this principle. Aeneas had no doubt that his line was descended from a remote antiquity - Virgil had no doubt that Aeneas was a royal Trojan - the Romans had no doubt that they descended from Aeneas. The Greeks traced their civilization to Egypt - the Goths to Greece - the Teutonic tribes to the Goths - and the English to the Teutons - for the Vikings were Teutonic tribes - Anglos, Saxons, Normans. American civilization is an extension of English - the English of European - the European of Asiatic. This is history, legend, evidence and belief and it is not a trifling filament that the mass of proof is increased by genealogists recording pedigrees from sources that are just becoming available.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Genealogical History of My Ancestors and the Story of My Life About my ancestors and myself I have endeavored to be truthful. I could have said more about myself, but to have done so might have been considered egotistical. Had I said less, I might better have kept silent. This is my first attempt at literary work. It has not been written for gain, but only that my descendants may know something of the struggles and privations of their forefathers, who by their efforts and sacrifices have made the present possible. In compiling a work of this kind, errors in dates and otherwise will occur. I have told the story of my anoes tors and of myself in the hope that it will be appreciated by those who know me, and by my descendants who follow after.

Download or read book My Ancestors in America written by Wm Blake Pierce and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Ancestors in America: Compiled, Printed and Published for Gratuitous Distribution Among Near Relatives I have little to say by way of preface. My humble volume is not intended for general inspection, but for gratuitous distribution among near relatives and friends who have a personal interest in the facts narrated, and who will understand and appreciate my motives in collecting and printing them. I have attempted nothing but a brief and simple narrative of well authenticated facts concerning immediate ancestry in a direct line from the time they first landed in America. I have felt no disposition to extend my researches back among our progenitors in England. The Puritan dates his nobility from the time his fathers sacrificed all, and braved all, for the maintenance of civil and religious liberty and he cares not how noble or ignoble his descent may have been previous to the period of the mighty exodus. "It was no earth born-story, That made the adventurers stray, This world and all its glory, To them had passed away." While, therefore, the minions of British aristocracy seldom attempt to extend their investigations, among a people they have always despised, beyond the time that their robber ancestors under the great King Richard, first landed and fastened upon their shores, neither will the Puritan pursue his inquiries among institutions he condemns, to trace out the beginnings of those wrongs and outrages which finally drove his fathers into the wilderness. It is not idle curiosity which has prompted this undertaking. Having come into possession of the valued records of my honored father, I have felt under a sacred obligation to preserve them in such form as will be likely to be most useful and permanent, and finding that the direct line of all my ancestors in America has been preserved, an unbroken chain without a missing link, I have felt called upon to collect and print such well authenticated facts as may be interesting and useful to present and future generations. In doing this, I have not in all cases given my authorities. In general terms I may, however, say that where I have not credited an important fact, I find it narrated by different parties. The facts concerning my Pierce ancestry are gathered chiefly from my fathers records. Those concerning the Blakes, I have obtained from the same reliable source, and also from the excellent publication of Samuel Blake, Esq., which he styles "Blake Family," but which I have referred to as "Blake's Memoirs." For the history of the Tappans I am largely indebted to my uncle, Lewis Tappan, and to my sister, E. P., whose indefatigable efforts have put me in possession of many valuable facts. I am equally indebted to her for many interesting particulars concerning the Homes family. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Ancestors: 1675 to 1885 This was conveyed to him March 18th, 1673 by John, Lord Berkeley, who re ceived his title from the Duke of York, the latter possessing it by virtue of letters patent granted by his brother, King Charles II. The English King claimed its ownership on the ground of first discovery. In anticipation of colonizing this land, Fenwick proceeded, before starting to this country, to sell it in tracts ranging from 500 to iooo acres each, to a number of persons, all apparently mem bers of the religious Society of Friends. Samuel Nicholson was one who bought 500 acres, which he afterwards increased to 2000. It was to occupy and improve their possessions that these emigrants came over. Thus they formed the first permanent settlement of Europeans on the fishore of the Delaware River. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
