PREFACE


Any intelligent person is capable of becoming interested in family history. This interest is increasing in this country to such an extent that a great desire is now manifested by many, for a fuller knowledge of their ancestry. Such a knowledge encourages truly democratic ideas, by showing the universal brotherhood of the race.


The material gathered in these pages was drawn from many sources. It is presented to the reader by a clear method, requiring but little ex- planation; though the plan is a comprehensive one, and the arrangement in some respects original.


There is no attempt made to give a record of persons whose stay was but a temporary one in this colony. The towns annexed to Rhode Island in 1747, and later, are not considered to come strictly within the scope of this work ; yet many families in these towns are inclu led, par- ticularly in Tiverton and Little Compton, which were largely settled from the older part of the colony. In such cases, the towns are reckoned as though always within the bounds of Rhode Island.


It is the hope of the author that this book may prove an incentive to many family genealogies, whereby the records of individuals may be brought down to the present time. To the many persons and associations that have given valuable aid in supplying information, cordial thanks are tendered.


Providence, R. I., 1887.
