Excerpt from A Genealogical History of the Descendants of the Rev. Nehemiah Smith of New London County, Conn: With Mention of His Brother John and Nephew Edward, 1638-1888From an early desire to know something of the history of my ancestors, and with the knowledge that others, by their own direct line of descent, are equally interested, this volume has been compiled, in the hope that it will prove of interest, not only to those of the present time, but will preserve in durable form a record of the family that will be of value to future generations. Had a compilation been made a century ago and now brought down to date, the results would have been more satisfactory, for doubtless many items of interest are now irrevocably lost. That much more may now be gained by further research, not only in America, but more especially in England, hardly any one can more fully realize than the writer, but as genealogy is something that can be pursued almost indefinitely, and as publication has already been delayed far beyond the time originally intended, it has been deemed best to secure, beyond the possibility of loss, the data thus far obtained.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
