A History of Welcome Garrett and His Descendants (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from A History of Welcome Garrett and His Descendants: From His Birth in 1758 Down to a Recent DateIt is a pleasure to me that I am afforded this opportunity to express my appreciation of the courtesies extended to me during the past quarter of a century. I would indeed be un grateful did I not embrace this opportunity to acknowledge the many favors extended by those who have, in the least, contributed data to this work. Were it not for your assistance such a work could never have been accomplished. Some per son or persons in almost every family has added to my pleas ure by responding to my entreaty for data. Your letters are still in my possession, many of them written more than a score of years ago, yet never the less highly prized by one who loves his kindred. Others have taken a deep interest in the work, spending much time and helping in various ways to lighten my labors. They who have assisted are so numerous, it seems impossible to name them here. I can only thank you, one and all. I extend to you my heartfelt gratitude.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
