Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History of the Tally Family: On the Delaware; And Their Descendants; Including a Genealogical Register, Modern Biography and Miscellany; Early History and Genealogy From 1686 Why write history of the Talley family? Who were they and what have they accomplished? Those who ask these questions need have the means of answering themselves. This reason is a sufficient justification for the issue of this book. No claim will we make that all of the Talleys were great and noble. Where will you find a crop of fruit or grain entirely free from blight or chaff? In searching out this record many extensive fields have been gleaned; and in the subsequent processes of threshing and winnowing, we have secured an abundant yield of well-formed, full-weight, golden grain. Why should I assume the task and the responsibility of gathering up and preserving this record? The answer may be found in the fact that it has never heretofore been done, though highly important that it should have been. When I began this work, I, like many others, simply knew my ancestry back to my grandfather. I knew that Thomas Talley was my grandfather, merely because I had in childhood played around his knees, in front of the blazing hearth. We were then too young to further scan the past. Youth lives only for the future, and in hope of the coming manhood. After maturity our minds are more given to retrospection, and Inquiry will then often ask, "Who were our ancestors?" Alas, how often no response is heard! Many times have we asked this question without receiving a satisfying answer. Through perseverance, however, the question has been solved so far as it relates to America. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
