Product Description:
Excerpt from A History and Genealogy of the Families of Bulloch, Stobo, De Veaux, Irvine, Douglass, Baillie, Lewis, Adams, Glen, Jones, Davis, Hunter: With a Genealogy of Branches of the Habersham, King, Stiles, Footman, Hewell, Turner, Stewart, Dunwody, Elliott, With Mention of the Families of Bryan, Bourke, Williams, Wylly, Woodbridge, and Many Other Families In presenting this work the writer feels that he has at least accomplished something - saved much that may be of use to those who desire to know something of their ancestry. We study the pedigree of animals and take care to preserve a fine race of them - then, why not look into the traits of mankind, and try to develop a fine, honorable, God-loving race; yet can we reasonably expect to do so unless we study its past history? History teaches us much of mankind in genera, genealogy in particular; and by its study we learn to emulate the good, true and noble in the race, and to steer clear of its defects, faults and vices. Again, to the physician it is invaluable, for he sees before him descendants of ancestors who had their vices, who had their excellent traits of character, and by a close scrutiny he can advise them against certain evil practices or against certain marriages, or help them to throw off inherited disease and avoid its continuance in their offspring. The author takes pride in saying that his little record is as near correct as it is possible to make it at this late day, and he has been careful to avoid flimsy traditions, taking only such as were of reliable source, and if any doubt exists, has stated by terms of qualification.
