Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Irish Pedigrees, Vol. 2: Or, the Origin and Stem of the Irish Nation In the first series of this Work, published in 1876, I promised that, if God spared me, I would, so far as I could, complete Irish Pedigrees; this book is that promised volume. As my first series had withstood the strictest scrutiny, I asked the permission of Sir J. Bernard Burke, Ulster King of Arms - himself a distinguished Genealogist, to compare my Notes with O´Ferrall´s Linen Antiqua: to see if the genealogies which I had traced for my second series would agree with those recorded in the copy of that excellent work preserved in the Office of Arms. With that flowing courtesy for which he has ever been proverbial, Sir Bernard not only granted me that permission, but also the permission to inspect Sir William Betham´s enlarged edition of the Linea Antiqua, and any ancient record in the Office of Arms bearing on my subject. For that kindness and courtesy I desire to record my grateful acknowledgments. I think it right to observe that, in my careful inspection of those valuable records, I found that the genealogies which I had traced agreed more fully with those recorded in the splendid volumes of the "Betham Collection", than with those in O´Ferrall´s Linea Antiqua.
