Book excerpt: Excerpt from Commemorative, Biographical Record of Wayne County, Ohio: Containing Biographical Sketches of Prominent and Representative Citizens, and of Many of the Early Settled Families The expediency of placing in book form biographical history and genealogy of the representative public is beyond question; and when the difficulties experienced in a majority of cases, by the biographical historian, in procuring ancestral history are considered, the intelligent reasoner will be convinced of the necessity of preserving family records in permanent form. That the representative public is entitled to the privileges afforded by a work of this kind needs no assertion at our hands, for one of our greatest Americans has said that the history of any country resolves itself into the biographies of its stout, earnest and representative citizens. This medium then serves more than a single purpose; while it perpetuates biography and family genealogy, it records history, much of which would be preserved in no other way. In presenting this volume to its patrons the publishers acknowledge with gratitude the encouragement and support their enterprise has received, and the Willing assist ance rendered in the surmounting of the many unforeseen obstacles to be met with in the preparation of a work of this character. In nearly every instance the material composing the sketches has been gathered from those immediately interested, and then submitted in type-written form for their correction and revision.
