Excerpt from Memorial of a Respectable and Respected Family and Especially of Joshua Bicknell, Farmer, Representative, Senator, Judge, and Eminent Christian Citizen

To know one's ancestry is both a duty and a pleasure. Especially is this true when the line of descent is marked by men and women of integrity, virtue, manly self-reliance, and Christian deeds. Of the Bicknell family, it is quite remarkable that, while few of its members have amassed great wealth, or have achieved great names among the world's greater lights, there have been but few, if any, instances where persons have erred from the paths of honest toil and the principles of honest living before God and men. To say thus much is to confer on one's kinship a title to nobility which is essentially valuable and worthy of transmission from sire to son. I have taken great pleasure in studying my lineage to find so clear a record for all, and this little memorial of my grandfather's descent, and of his offspring, is a tribute to the labors and memories of good men and pure women.
