Excerpt from History of the Town of Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, From Its Settlement in 1717 to 1829: With Other Matter Relating Thereto Not Before Published, Including an Extensive Family Register

In pursuing the inquiry, my information has been extended, and my curiosity gratified.

By the records of olden time, I have been introduced not only to the ancient dead, whose works live in history, and whose deeds are related in story, but made acquainted with numerous family lines of subsequent generations and their wide spread connections.

In this compilation I introduce them to the reader, with an ao count of some of their descendants, their families, &c., and of others, whose remote ancestry I could not, or had not time to trace. What reflections have not arisen in my mind, while pre paring it! What will not be produced in his, who reads it The aged will meditate upon it, and recall to mind many things they had forgotten, if they ever knew them; while the young, with more buoyant feelings, perusing it for information, will find it an instructive compendium of genealogy, and some of the historical matter entertaining, when drawn around the evening fireside, where more frequently occur an interchange of thoughts and a participation in feelings, that give a zest to amusement.
