The possession of a genealogical record, such as but few families can show, is adapted to subserve other purposes than those of mere family pride. In reply to the question of utility, it is enough to point out the obvious advantage, in case some childless man of the name should leave a fortune seeking heirs. Here is an advan tage, not more to the few who may be able to trace their title by the information given in this work, than to the far greater number, who, without such a guide, might suffer loss of time and money, and bitter disappointment in the end, which the certain knowledge of their descent found in this volume would save them at once.
