* It may seem presumptuous in the author to attempt a sketch of this family, after the diligent and success- ful research of the author of Haven's Genealogy. His only apology is, that he had commenced his labor before the publication of Mr. Adams' valuable work, and could not put it
aside without marring his design. He is happy to refer the reader, who may wish for further information than is here given, to that publica- tion. Perhaps a few gleanings may be here found, not wholly without interest.
