Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Genealogy of the Rand Family in the United States Although this Genealogy of the Rand family - which is a labor of love - has been uninterruptedly in preparation during several years, its inadequacy to her ideal is fully recognized by its compiler. Its publication has been de layed from time to time in an effort to obtain fuller data with which to bridge over the hiatus existing in certain lines of descent. She has conscientiously investigated every public and private source of information known to her; a voluminous correspondence has been carried on by her with reference to family records; the various public libraries of New York and Boston, and the Historical library of Cornell University have been diligently, and she thinks exhaustively searched in this department, and various New England towns which where the early homes of the race on this side of the Atlantic have been visited, and their church and probate records personally examined. Notwithstanding this careful and protracted search it is still entirely probable that there exist private family memoranda, letters and records which if brought forward would throw much light on doubtful points. In this way - and probably in this way only - the vacancies in the ranks may be ultimately closed up. It is thought that the publication of the material now in hand may stimulate and assist individual research, and any additional data which may be forthcoming will be welcomed and incorpor ated in a future edition. It is a matter for deep regret that so little is known with certainty of the English antecedents of the family, but time and persistent labor may yet pierce the mystery.
