Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Annals of a Clerical Family: Being Some Account of the Family and Descendants of William Venn, Vicar of Otterton, Devon, 1600-1621 The following short volume belongs to a class of publication which is sufficiently familiar to need neither apology nor explanation. It does not profess to appeal to many outside the circles of those connected by ties of consanguinity with the various persons mentioned, or of the few who, for biographical or other purposes, have occasion to consult family pedigrees. The recovery of the facts here recorded was largely due to my grandfather, John Venn, who was somewhat of an antiquary, and who carefully collected family reminiscences and traditions whilst they were yet in being. My father was keenly interested in the same inquiries, but his busy life left him few opportunities for indulging a taste in this direction. The greater part, therefore, of the following account is the result of my own investigations; deferred unfortunately until nearly all who belonged to the generations behind me were no longer present to assist. Only two persons here recorded really emerge into public history. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
