Jordan LLD Foreword The present work, "Genealogical and Personal History of the Allegheny Valley, 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 Allegheny valley Families 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 threefold: First. To present in concise form the history of the Allegheny Valley Families of the Colonial Days. Second. To preserve a record of its prominent present-day people. Third. To present through personal sketches the relation of its prominent families of all times of the growth, singular prosperity and wide-spread influence of the Allegheny Valley, Pennsylvania, and its tributary region. 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 to be 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 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 minster t, 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 service, or by usefulness in private station, and that the development as 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 well expressed by Sir Walter Scott, that "there is no heroic poem in the world but... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Windham Press is committed to bringing the lost cultural heritage of ages past into the 21st century through high-quality reproductions of original, classic printed works at affordable prices. This book has been carefully crafted to utilize the original images of antique books rather than error-prone OCR text. This also preserves the work of the original typesetters of these classics, unknown craftsmen who laid out the text, often by hand, of each and every page you will read. Their subtle art involving judgment and interaction with the text is in many ways superior and more human than the mechanical methods utilized today, and gave each book a unique, hand-crafted feel in its text that connected the reader organically to the art of bindery and book-making. We think these benefits are worth the occasional imperfection resulting from the age of these books at the time of scanning, and their vintage feel provides a connection to the past that goes beyond the mere words of the text.

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.
