Synopsis:

Trace a single family's footsteps through three centuries of American change. Essential reading for family historians. Lineage And Biographies Of The Norris Family In America From 1640 To 1892, compiled by Leonard Allison Morrison, assembles meticulously researched lineage notes and readable biographical sketches that map the Norris name across settlement, work and civic life from the colonial era into the later nineteenth century. The tone is plain, attentive and human; entries offer both dates and context so that names become people. As a work of historical family biographies it gives narrative weight to american family genealogy without sacrificing the clarity needed for serious research. Organised entries, pedigree outlines and careful cross-references make the volume a practical genealogy reference book and a ready lineage research collection. Readers will find vivid reminders of the rhythms of everyday life, from farm labour and local trade to military service and community office, framed by migration and marriage. That human focus makes the book valuable to casual readers who enjoy stories of early American settlers, and indispensable to family history researchers tracing norris family descendants, exploring colonial america ancestry or piecing together pennsylvania family history and pioneer family records. Its names and relationships also provide useful footholds for broader enquiries into 17th century America and regional change. As a preserved register of people and place, the work contributes meaningfully to american heritage studies and to regional histories that rely on painstaking local detail. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Practical yet dignified, this edition will sit comfortably with classic-literature collections and local-history libraries, while remaining a working tool for anyone compiling family trees or assembling a lineage research collection. A valuable resource.
