Preface

It is an interestingobject of curiosity to most men to searcli into the oii;^iii of tlu:ir own famillL-s, to trace tlielr descents, and to collect the history o( the iuiliviihials who compose them. However remote in time or consanguinity, it is natural to believe that we inhei'it from our fatheis their mental an I physical peculiarities, though moditied by circumstances. Wii enter aTjetiouately into their concerns, and rej )ice in their houors or prosperity, and are personally grieved by their misconduct or misfoitunes.

These sentiments are uruloubtedly founded in the innate and best feelings of the huin;in heart, which delights in multiplying and extending the ties that bind u> to our fellow creatures. The love of our kindred is the first degree of expansion of th^ heart in its progress towards universal benevoienoe. The history of states is but a history of families.

To satisfy this curiosity, in some measure, has been my aim in collecting the materials for the genealogies in this publication. Much pains have been taken to obtain correct inform ition respecting families. Wherever family records could be obtained, they have been used ; but in most cases no such record could be had. 1 therefore had to dei)end on the memory i,f some one or more of the family, and in consequence, no doubt, many errors may be found; but I hope I'or the most part the names are correct. With the exception of one or two, every family maybe traced back to some branch that lived in Passaic Valley previous to the year 1800.

I have now submitted to the public, and especially those whose families or ancestors are named, the labor's of some seven year-s, hoping that some, at least, will be pleased lo learn something more of their ancestors and connections than they would otherwise have known.
