Excerpt from Genealogical Notes, Showing the Paternal Line of Descent From William Torrey of Combe St. Nicholas, Somerset County, England, A. D. 1557 to Jason Torrey of Bethany, Penna: With the Descendants of Jason Torrey and of His Brothers and Sister, to A. D. 1884
He raised a large family, and the majority of his descendants have remained in the vicinity of the scenes of his laborious and fruitful activities.
But neither he, nor any of his progenitors, so far as we know, nor any of his descendants, until within a few years, have devoted any attention to the collect ing or preserving of any comprehensive genealogical information concerning either the earlier or later generations of the family. Whatever work had been done in this direction, consisted merely of limited family records, made for separate house holds, and many of these were found to be very incomplete and fragmentary.
