Description: Colonialand Revolutionary Families ofPennsylvaniaGenealogical and Personal Memoirs In Four VolumesBy John Woolf Jordan, 19112,400 pages, illustrated, indexed, searchable ***********************************************************************************Digital EBook CD Requires Adobe Reader 7 or higher to View; or MAC AccessAutoboot Menu for Easy PC Access; Manually open files on MAC****************************************************************************** These four volumes contain possibly the most authoritative collection of Pennsylvania genealogies ever assembled. The editor, John W. Jordan, was a celebrated historian as well as a genealogist, and, with his able assistants, among whom we find the great Warren S. Ely, he produced a work that is yet unmatched in scope and accuracy, covering fully 250 colonial and Revolutionary families in a series of independent genealogical narratives. Extending fromtwo or three pages to twenty and thirty pages or more, the genealogiesgenerally commence with the known ancestors of the first Pennsylvania settlerand proceed in the direct line of descent to representatives of the family in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, touching, in this manner, on as many asseven or eight or more generations, each member of which is scrupulouslyaccounted for by name, spouse, issue, and dates of birth, marriage, and death, surfacing again, in many cases, as the subject of a biographical essay. These originalpublications contain a good many full-page portraits. Below is a list of thefamilies treated: Abbot, Adams/Anshutz, Ashhurst,Ashton, Babcock/Badcocke, Baird, Balch, Ball, Ballard, Barnes, Beaver, Benners,Bevan, Biddle, Bigger, Bissell, Blaine, Blight, Blynn, Bodine, Boggs, Bonsall, Bunting, Burchfield, Burnham, Butler, Calvert, Carpenter, Carstairs, Cass,Bosbyshell, Bournonville, Brackenridge, Brice, Brodhead, Brown, Bryden, Craig, Crispin, Crowell, Curtin, Cuthbert, Darte, De Armit, Dechert, Decker,Cassatt, Chaplin, Chew, Childs, Clark, Comegys, Converse, Cooke, Corbin, Coyle, Gleffer, Haddock, Haines, Hamill, Hamilton, Hart, Haseltine, Hays, Herron,Denny, Derr, Diehl, Donaldson, Duane, Dupui, Eaton, Ellison, Emlen, Etting,Eveland, Fassett, Findley, Fisher, Flagg, Follansbee, Fox, Friend, Gilpin, Kinney, Lammot, Larimer, Laughlin, Leaming, Lennig, Lindsay, Lloyd , Logan,Hewson, Heyl, Hillman, Holme, Horne, Horner, Houston, Howard, Hudson, Huff,Hunt, Irish, Irwin, Jeffries, Johnson, Jordan, Kendrick, Kennedy, Kent, Kimber, McKean, McMasters, Mehard, Mercur, Merrill, Miller, Miner, Molten, Montgomery,Logue, Loughrey, Lovejoy, Lydick, Lyne, Lyon, Maclay, Madeira, Magee, Mann,Marshall, Marston, McCall, McCandless, McClintock, McCloud, McCully, McCurdy,Moon, Morris, Morrow, Mosier, Mowry, Mulford, Neale, Neff, Newhall, Nichols, Reed, Reynolds, Richards, Ricketts, Riter, Robb, Robbins, Roberts, Robinson,Norris, O'Hara, Osbourn, Paine, Parker, Patton, Paulson, Pearson, Peet,Pemberton, Penn, Pennypacker, Pequignot, Perrin, Philips, Pinkerton, Plumly,Plumstead, Porter, Potter, Powell, Preston, Price, Purves, Putnam, Rawle, Rea,Rouse, Ruffner, Rupp, Sailor, Samson, Sanderson, Sankey, Scott, Sellers, Leer, Waddell/Smith, Wagner, Wainwright, Wallace, Waller, Waln, Walter, Ward,Semple, Serrill, Shattuck, Sheakley, Sheppard, Shippen, Shiras, Shoemaker,Shriver, Sill, Singer, Smith, Snowden, Sparhawk, Steel, Stevens, Stevenson,Sullivan, Swift, Thomas, Thorington, Tingley, Townsend, Turnbull, Tyson, VanWarner, Weaver, Weitzel, Wells, Wentworth, Wharton, Whelen, Wiederseim, Wignall, Wilkins, Wilkinson, Willing, Wilson, Winsheimer, Wistar/Wister,Wister, Wurts, Wynne, and Yeates. INTRODUCTORYThe present work, "Colonial and Revolutionary Families of Pennsylvania,"presents in the aggregate an amount of genealogical and personal informationunequalled by any kindred publication. Indeed, no similar work concerningPennsylvania families has ever been presented. Numerous voluminous histories of Pennsylvania have presented in fullnessthe political, social and material conditions, from the earliest times. In thiswork are contained chronicles of the people who have made Pennsylvania whatit is. These records are presented in a series of independent genealogical andpersonal narratives relating to lineal family heads, and the most conspicuousrepresentatives down to the present generation, thus giving it a distinct personalinterest. These ends have been conscientiously and faithfully conservedthrough the assistance of those who have long pursued genealogical studieswith intelligence and enthusiasm, with John W. Jordan, LL.D., as supervisingeditor. Much assistance was rendered by Mrs. Charles Custis Harrison, MissLeach, Oliver Hough, Warren S. Ely, and others. THE PUBLISHERS. Check out my other items!
