Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Topographer and Genealogist, Vol. 3 Since the Preface to the Second Volume of this collection was written, the Editor has observed with much satisfaction the pro gress of topographical and genealogical research, encouraged and promoted by our now numerous Archaeological Societies: espe cially those which undertake the illustration of the antiquities of particular Counties. The Society for Sussex has continued to take the lead, and 7to hold forth the most enviable example, by the annual publication of a volume of great and indeed general interest, formed of materials at once solid, authentic, and original arranged with skill, and edited with care. There is every pro spect that the new Society lately formed for Kent will be con ducted upon the same excellent model. Surrey has promised more than it has hitherto performed. But the Society that has been established for the illustration of London and Middlesex will have paramount claims to attention, if its workers shall be equal to their province, and if they do not altogether lose sight of what has hitherto remained unknown, in the blaze of light which so many writers have already thrown upon the annals of the metro polis. Notwithstanding all that has been done, this is indeed the richest mine of all, if the diggers can but find time and per severance for their task. The literature of County History on a larger scale remains as inert as it did four years ago. With the exception of the History of Shropshire by the Rev. Mr. Eyton, a work of less magnificence but not of less genealogical erudition than those of former times.

Download or read book The Garber Historical and Genealogical Record Vol 1 written by Clark M. Garber and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-11-07 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Garber Historical and Genealogical Record, Vol. 1: A Publication Devoted to the History and Genealogy of the Garber Family in America; Number 1, 1937 As the fringe of our frontier was pushed westward the ever present spirit of adventure and the desire to pioneer new lands led many relatives from their ancestral homes. To all parts of America. They migrated. So widely scattered have they become, that the reader may easily imagine the enor mous task involved in acquiring detailed information from a so greatly diffused people. As the Family History assumes its initial form, the biographies of more than fifteen hundred liv ing and deceased relatives have been recorded. Yet I may safely add, that this figure represents less than one fourth of the progeny of our parent who migrated from Switzerland. A family genealogy and history has a definite public value. Its value as a public document is no less than its value to the family whose history is narrated therein. In it the lives of prominent men and women are recorded, military records of relatives are recounted, literary works of contributing rela tives are published, and the vital statistics of the family are tabulated. A biography of each and every relative, both direct and by marriage, is given. Old pictures of families. Reunions. Family heads, homesteads, prominent relatives. Historical items. Etc. Are reproduced. Court records and published works from which a considerable amount of information has been gleaned are listed in the bibliography.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Genealogy of the Burroughs Family If any one has a desire or inclination to pursue "knowledge under difficulties" I would suggest to them to try writing up a family genealogy. There are so few people in this country who keep a written record of their families, that it is difficult to gather and write out anything like a correct genealogical record in later years after the members get scattered and each member forms a branch of the family tree. The Burroughs Family is no exception. As the years go by, and time goes on, we shall become the ancestors of the coming generations, and I feel awake to the importance of preserving and carrying forward as correct and complete a genealogical record as possible for the use and benefit of those who come after us. I have been laboring for some years to gather and write up the origin, and line of descent of my own family, and in doing so have been aided materially by correspondence and books of history. I have much in MS. that would help others engaged in the same work in other family lines. The Burroughs name has been numerous along the line of history and includes some individuals of note of whom I will make brief mention. The first I find is Stephen Burroughs, an English navigator of the sixteenth century. He accompanied Chancellor as second in command on his voyage to discover a northeast passage around the eastern continent in 1553. Three years later he had chief command of another expedition equipped with the same object. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
